Philippe Katerine was crowned Friday evening male artist of the year at the 35th Victoires de la Musique, against Lomepal and ALain Souchon.

On Confessions , his album released last November, he grabs sensitive subjects, such as homophobia, racism, or " beauferie ". For example, he succeeds in making the popular rapper Lomepal chant the words of 88% , a song in which the latter puts himself in the place of a repressed homosexual.
