9:00 p.m. on the Main Stage >> PR2B and rapper Sally open the evening to introduce us to their respective worlds. Pauline has always navigated between Image and Music. A student of Cours Florent, then a graduate of La Femis (directing department), she then chose to shine in songs and has just released her first album “Rayons Gamma”, both “raw, electronic and organic”. Having become P.R2B, she produces her clips herself and thus puts her plastic know-how at the service of her songs: “a perpetual continuum” from which is born what the French scene has known for a very long time. Especially since the live is, for her, “this place where it burns”. Strong. Adoubée by Lord Esperanza and discovered by the general public during the first parts of Angèle, Sally has built a universe associating rap and hip hop sounds.>> IAM in a unique show in music and images.The group I AM presents a tailor-made show for and with the festival, merging the titles of the Warrior Tour with archive images that retrace the history of the group, one of the most legendary in French rap.
