the rapper under fire from critics after the release of his new song “Merci les Bleus”

In 2018, when the Blues had just won the World Cup, rapper Vegedream released a title called “Bring the cup home”… which literally became the anthem of this victory with more than 450 million views on YouTube and who made the country dance for months. A song with a catchy rhythm, in which the artist thanks the players of the France team by giving a little nod to the performance of each of them.

Four years later, and despite the defeat of the French team on December 18 against Argentina, Vegedream once again thanked the players of the French team for their remarkable career. If it leaked overnight on social networks, the song “Merci les bleus” was officially released this Wednesday, December 28, 2022 at midnight. If he had been working on it for days, Vegedream chose to cover the background of the 2018 song with the same rhythm and only changed the lyrics. The rapper does not fail to thank Kylian Mbappé, Dayot Upamecano or even Antoine Griezmann for their prowess on the ground.
