Available since July 10, Lefa is back with Famous , the second part that completes her previous album Fame, released in 2019 The latter is therefore transformed into a double album. An album eagerly awaited by rap fans. The Parisian rapper, former member of the group Sexion d'assaut now solo, is experiencing a real renaissance recently. And he does not hesitate to share his know-how with the new generation. But what is Famous really worth? Focus!
An explosive comeback
A true pillar of rap in the 2010s, Lefa decided to go solo. Wishing to equal his former brothers in arms, Gims and Black M. The latter enjoyed impressive commercial success after their career took a pop turn. Mr. Fall tried to do the same for his first solo project, but the sauce did not take. So much the better, because it allowed the rapper to review his formula and work on his artistic direction. From this mature reflection were born very good projects like Fame or 3h du mat. Very well worked albums to match the current sounds. Lefa is best known for his outspokenness and sharp criticism of society. Indeed, his sharp eye and sharp pen allow him to draw the portrait of the vices of man. However, in this album, it is all about celebrity. When some proclaim the benefits of life as an artist, Lefa takes a step back from it and manages to see the bad aspects. Being a "famous" person is not easy. 
Managing your notoriety
The album opens with the title Anonymat in which he says this "Fuck fame, I prefer to remain anonymous, never dreamed of being known, me". As if notoriety was too difficult a weight to carry. Indeed, in celebrity, we can see essentially the good sides such as invitations in posh corners and flashes of paparazzi, but all this also comes with its share of disadvantages. To the point that Lefa would have preferred never to be famous. In fact, the problem is that we no longer know if people love us for who we are or if they are there simply to serve their interests. In Interlude, he confides in him: "Since I am famous, it speaks to me with respect". To highlight the fact that if he wasn't, people would have treated him differently. A perfect antithesis that characterizes this "man of the shadows". As a result, Famous is quite dark in the topics covered. Which contrasts with this album cover made of gold. A realization signed Koria. In short, the album is a criticism tinged with cynicism on the black side of the human being: the attraction by all that glitters. However, we go around in circles pretty quickly in the album. But fortunately for us, Fall is very well accompanied.
Make room for guests!
Indeed, Famous is not to be outdone in terms of featuring. In order, we find: SCH, Leto, Bosh, PLK, Laylow and Josman. Plethora of artists, all of the new generation. We can see a kind of passing of the torch on the part of Lefa by surrounding himself with people who will make the music of tomorrow. In addition, it is an honor for them, who surely grew up listening to Lefa's verses when he rapped with the Sexion. Moreover, PLK recognizes Lefa as a real source of inspiration. The least we can say is that the guests respected the host. The feats are mostly successful. Special mention for Laylow's verse in Elle aime. Finally, this double album is effective. Of course, as in all double albums, there is waste, but the whole remains very enjoyable. In addition, by inviting the top of the new generation, Lefa manages to galvanize and renew itself with ease. Famous is therefore a must of this summer.
