Casseurs Flowters: Des histoires à raconter

Apaprently a final release from French rap duo Casseurs Flowters, with a clip for the track Des
histoires à raconter.

The duo of Orlesan and Gringe released the album Orelsan et Gringe sont les Casseurs Flowters one year ago, and are bringing the project to a  close.

The song was, appropriately enough, the final track on the collection.

The two rappers had worked together several years ago before embarking on successful solo careers, and came together again to record the album which was met with both critical and commercial success.

Orelsan's last solo release was 2011's  Le chant des sirènes, which saw him win two  Victoires de la Musique awards and sell over 100,000 copies of the collection.

His success has not been without controversy, with accusations of homophobia and misogyny surrounding some of his lyrics.

Perhaps taking some time out from his solo career, while still enjoying success as part of a different act, will allow him to return to his solo career as a more mature artist.
