A tidal wave. Really, if there's one year that shaped modern French rap, it gotta be 2015. Nekfeu started his rise to fame, PNL dropped Le Monde Chico and established cloud rap in French, and SCH introduced a whole new way of incorporating auto-tune into rap. Before 2015, it wasn't cool - at all - to use auto-tune, but SCH did so with such attitude, flows, and dark lyrics that everybody had to agree: it's a game-changer, because auto-tune is not used to hide vocal limitations anymore, but to convey emotions that a bare voice cannot transmit. Not all tracks excel at what they try to do, but it's gotta be one of the best French rap mixtapes. It's so good it sounds like an album.
