What are some good French rap artists?

The compilation Rapattitude 2 gather a selection of the greatest songs and artistsfrom the 90s in France : Rapattitude, the tracklist

There have been a big wave of commercial rap in the last decade with artists like Rhoff and the Mafia K ‘1 Fri crew or Booba (biggest rap sales in France). I don ‘t like it much but it is worth listening. I find more underground artists like Casey or La Caution way more creative and interesting.

If you want to know more, an awesome read is Abcdr du Son, le magazine rap . Also, a good friend does a small publication that have lots of good stuff : Rapporteuz du Hip-Hop

Enjoy !
