The explosion comes in 2024: his album Young and rich<\/em>released in October, is a gold record in December, platinum disc in February. He is only the second Ivorian artist, after the Zouglou Duo Yod\u00e9 & Siro, to obtain this distinction, and the first of ivory rap. Its biggest hits, Yorobo Drill Act 3<\/em>,, Clothes<\/em> And Banger,<\/em> are now part of the soundtrack of the Ivorian economic capital. Himra speaks on the street. He sings the galley, aggressiveness and recognition. “” We are not lucky, so forced to swarm <\/em>[en nouchi, faire des petits boulots difficiles et mal pay\u00e9s] “, He underlines in the words of Without pressure<\/em>.<\/p>\n\nRead also |<\/span> In Ivory Coast, Gospel rap wants to “rejuvenate the image of Christian life” <\/span> <\/div>\n Read later<\/span> <\/button> <\/p>\n<\/section>\n“” Young and rich<\/em> Himra is now. The Ivorian market does not report anything to YouTube, as in almost all African countries, but it can count on international streamings, its many scenic services and its commercial partnerships.<\/p>\nHis agenda for the coming months is already filled: a residence in Nigeria in March, a concert in Guinea in April as well as the Anoumabo Urban Music Festival (FEMUA) in Abidjan, collaborations announced with English -speaking artists. And, for his first European scene, Himra should start with the Yard festival, a high place in Parisian hip-hop culture, where he must share the poster on July 5 with Gazo and Tiakola.<\/p>\n
“I will not get older in rap”<\/h2>\n He also hopes to be able to find a relative anonymity abroad. Since he has reached celebrity, he recognizes ” No longer being able to go to the grocery store<\/em> Without being surrounded by very young fans, which overflows with enthusiasm. “” I always wanted to have this career, but this success, I did not expect it<\/em> “, He admits. His appearances sometimes turn to the riot, as during a signing session in November 2024 in the town of Yopougon in Abidjan.<\/p>\nIts popularity also tries to be recovered in a context tense by the perspective of the presidential election on October 25. Politicians of all stripes began to court it in the hope of gaining the favors of a youth whom they foresee disconnected from the stake.<\/p>\n
“” Politics and I, it’s two, <\/em>recognizes the singer. I know it is my audience that interests them. Today, if they want to tell the street to go out, the street is not going to go out. If they want to speak to street, street is not going to listen to them.
