Biography
It was their participation in Jimmy Jay's Cool Sessions in 1993 that launched Les Sages Poètes de la Rue. They performed their emblematic "La Rue", and stayed with Jimmy Jay for a first album, released in 1995. Somewhat hastily classified as "cool rappers" in the MC Solaar tradition, Les Sages Poètes de la Rue proved with "Bons baisers du poste", on the album of music inspired by the film La Haine, that they knew how to put their verbal virtuosity at the service of a strong theme. After 2002 and the album Après l'Orage, the trio unearthed a series of previously unreleased tracks, which they distilled into the two parts of Trésors Enfouis in 2005 and 2008. A new album was due to follow in 2011, but the three members' solo commitments decided otherwise. It wasn't until 2017, thirty years after their debut and twenty after their first opus, that the band resumed the course of their work with the excellent Art Contemporain, a counter-current to current productions with its organic instrumentations and rich, poetic lyrics.
