Melismell knew the street, the identity of the homeless, the instability of the future, the guilt-ridden gaze of society, the places of help which can turn into a space of insecurity because they are shared with men. It comes from there scream both powerful and vulnerable which irrigates its pieces.
“Les enfants de maldonne”, his 4th album, is a kind of firebrand like the title “Notre siècle à 20 ans”, lament around the lack of radicalism and spirit of protest long attributed to youth.
Voices of hope and despair, Melissmell surrounded herself with musicians who share the same ideals : Christian Olivier (Têtes Raides), Denis Barthe (Noir Désir) or even Matu (Indochine, Mano Solo) come to consolidate the message conveyed by Melissmel.
