Биография

Occitan rapper, poet, producer. Marseillais born in Germany, precocious polyglot, his childhood is played between Morocco, Egypt and Lebanon. As a teenager, he discovered hip hop, and fully embraced all the practices of this complete artistic movement. A guideline, a state of mind, which has never left him since. 
 His first solo album, Pantais Clus, will be released in collaboration with french alt Hip Hop label Dora Dorovitch and distributed in the U.S. by Fake Four Inc 
 On beats mixing trap, industrial sounds, samples of nòva cançon occitana from the 70's, Native Tongues influences as well as references to John Carpenter or Bon Iver rodín deploys in Pantais Clus an equally eclectic flow borrowing as much from the vocals of a Mac Miller than the more technical punchlines of Killer Mike or Lil Baby The album - closed dream in English - speaks of love, referring to a hermetic reading grid, that of the trobar clus. In the background we find many references to Greek mythology, the MC / producer’s Mediterranean childhood echoes the Middle East dreamed of by Occitan troubadours, in an imaginary where Tupac Shakur and Jaufre Rudel are housed in the same boat. 
 “rodín’s unique use of the Occitan language over exquisitely produced modern day Hip Hop soundscapes is a fascinating link between rap & the first troubadours of the Middle Ages.” Ceschi, Fake Four, Musician
