Seth Gueko

On October 9, 2026, Le Ferrailleur in Nantes hosts Seth Gueko. A rapper associated with Saint-Ouen-l’Aumône, he established himself in the early 2000s with a talent for concise turns of phrase, slang and playful twists on language. With a deep voice, dense phrasing and dark humor never far away, his writing blends urban reportage, popular references and irony, sitting between street rap and harder-edged accents. On stage, he pushes this aesthetic without unnecessary set pieces, relying on the precision of imagery, deliberate provocation and self-mockery.

His career has been built on mixtapes, freestyles and collaborations, marked by milestones such as Michto (2009), Bad Cowboy (2013), La Chevalière (2016) and Destroy (2019). True to an instantly recognizable identity, he hones with each project a biting language that never loses its sense of social observation. In Nantes, he appears in that register: a tight set, crafted for punchlines and shifts in tempo, where raw energy serves finely honed lyrics. A date that brings back to the fore a craftsman of words in French rap, with no frills.
