Musically, he has been compared to artists like French singer/rapper Aya Nakamura, as well as classic divas like Mariah Carey and Janet Jackson (who he has noted as a huge influence). His second album, “Contre soirée,” was released in November of 2020. “I can see my kingdom now/Quand je rêve, je suis un roi.” The song inspired his first album, released in April of 2019, titled “Kingdom,” which has a similar mix of tongues. “I am me/And I know I will always be/Je suis free oui, j’invente ma vie,” he sings, in a Frenglish that seems tailor made for international pop charts. An anthem to self-love, the song is a mixture of French and English. He performed an original song, “Roi,” cowritten with French duo Madame Monsieur. In 2019, Hassani got back on the talent show circuit, representing France in the Eurovision Song Contest, which took place in Tel Aviv. ![]()
