Aketo + Bob Marlich

Aketo has been part of French rap for over 25 years. First brought to light with Sniper, he has pursued a solo path marked by regular releases and varied collaborations. Precise rhymes, a controlled flow, a keen sense of lyrics and scansion — he moves forward without unnecessary effects, faithful to a hip‑hop aesthetic that has shaped several generations while staying firmly connected to the present.

Originally from Val‑de‑Marne, Bob Marlich crafts a personal brand of rap where boom‑bap heritage meets more recent textures. His writing, direct and introspective, examines everyday life and its flaws over instrumentals that allow the message to breathe as much as they drive the pace. A balance between tradition and modernity that charts his course.

On 6 February 2026 at Canal 93, 63 Avenue Jean Jaurès in Bobigny, Aketo and Bob Marlich share the stage for a co‑bill that links the experience of the older guard with the new generation of French rap. Standing concert.
