Orelsan plays Willy Wonka.
The rapper from Caen, whose album, “Civilization”
,
was already a gold record even before its release on Friday, has found a new idea to boost his physical sales and break records: the golden ticket!
In other words, an ultra-limited edition of his latest opus, in which he hid a precious sesame giving access… to his concerts for life!
The author of "Social Suicide" launched this hunt for gold tickets this Saturday on his Instagram account.
"There are only five copies in the world," explains the rapper in a video where we see him putting a "golden CD" in its packaging.

Future buyers of this more than collector's record will therefore find a numbered “golden ticket”, like “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”.
"This ticket gives access to all my concerts for life", specifies the artist awarded at the Victoires de la Musique.
This pretty crazy gift is even valid for two people, except festivals however.
"It can be in Perpignan, in Belgium, in Switzerland, in Luxembourg, (…) They will be distributed in nature", laughs Orelsan.
A concept born eight years ago?
The craziest thing about this story is that Orelsan had sort of announced this event in a previous song, eight years ago.
A hit by Maître Gims, "Sharingan", on which he featured.
"I'm Willy Wonka, your concert ticket hides a golden ticket", rapped "Aurélien", his real first name.
"I'm Willy Wonka, your
concert ticket hides a golden ticket"

In addition, four new editions of “Civilization”, distributed in 30,000 copies in stores and on the Internet, will also be put on sale.
