You're gonna love La Cliqua! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Cliqua

Check the 1999 eponymous album, full of bangers.

edit, just in case: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mmKENGKgnhXwE7...




Thanks!

I just checked a few of the songs on https://www.supraphonline.cz/album/50244-entre-deux-mondes (the 1999 album isn't on suprphon) there's some good beat but it's not very complex music-wise. I'll try to find the 1999 album and check it too.

In terms of unique French music, I've recently found La Petite Culotte - La Goffa Lolita https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmjCLbFkT5w

Given the musical composition (stanza, vocals, etc.) I hesitate to call that rap.

It's different from say Baby or Djadja by Nakamura, she's often categorized in Afrobeat but I would absolutely group them together in their style: I don't know how to name it (French Fusion?), but I love it!
