Real name Abdelkarim Brahmi-Benalla, born in Paris on June 21, 1978, French rapper Rim'K made his name as a member of the 113 collective, which continued to operate for a dozen years from 1994. Recognized for his track "Tonton du bled" on the album Les Princes de la Ville (1999) and his collaboration with Mafia K'1 Fry (2003-2007), he launched his solo career in 2004 with the album L'Enfant du Pays. Since then, Rim'K has enjoyed growing success with the albums Famille Nombreuse (2007), Maghreb United (No. 7, 2009), Chef de Famille (No. 10, 2012), Monster Tape (No. 7, 2016), recorded in Atlanta, USA, and Fantôme (No. 6, 2017), featuring collaborations with Lartiste, SCH, Sadek and S.Pri Noir, after previous appearances by Booba, Despo Rutti, Lacrim, Alonzo and Nekfeu.
