Dany Dan, the historic pen of French rap, releases a new album. At 50, the former Les Sages Poètes de la Rue returns with new album, Pieces Montées.
This time the rapper associates his “micro-revolver” – an image used in the song My Territory – with a sample swordsman, Kyo Itachi. The album, which comes out Friday, is called Mounted Pieces and builds a bridge between the clever sound assemblages of American rap from the 1990s and the racy writing of the same era.
