Houdi

On June 6, 2026, Houdi will take over the Théâtre de Verdure in Nice. Born in 2002 in Seine-et-Marne, the rapper has been shaping, since 2022, a direct signature: dark street rap, blunt writing and a knack for choruses. From early self-released tracks and FPH freestyles to the EPs Woka and La Bête, he lays the groundwork for a world that is distinctly his own.

In 2023, he churned out short-format releases — Grhünt, La Folie des Grandeurs, Avant les Yeux with the Marseille artist Stony Stone, Sun7 — and made numerous appearances on compilations and collective projects (Come Out of the Blue vol.2, the Le Règlement series, Raplume releases) alongside Favé and Georgio. Sonically, he switches between boom bap, trap and two-step, explores plug and allows himself sung choruses, in a vein that intersects influences from Alpha Wann, Kekra and Lesram.

At the start of 2024, the mixtape Hood Volume.1 brought together Guy2Bezbar, Ziak, Lesram, Winnterzuko and Dosseh, followed by the album Le Dernier Rayon de Soleil, supported by Rap conscient and Totally Spies. Announced for 2025, the mixtape Sirocco extends the momentum, as does a string of singles — from "Dalida" with So La Lune to "Intérieur", "Ribéry", "Sunsex" and "Ailleurs". On stage, he delivers a no-nonsense set that spans these chapters.
