Forever the first!
According to information from Mouv' radio that we are able to confirm, rapper Ninho - holder of the French record for the number of certified singles with 160 gold, 90 platinum and 50 diamond singles - will be the first artist to produce under the floodlights of the Adidas Arena.
The new, ultramodern and multifunctional enclosure located at Porte de la Chapelle, which will be inaugurated on Sunday.
The musical phenomenon, followed by almost 5 million fans on Instagram, will offer a unique showcase, following the Betclic Élite basketball match between Paris Basketball - which will be the only resident club in this room - and Saint-Quentin.
The artist, muse of the adidas brand, is a regular in the front rows of the basketball halls of which he is a fan.
He has already attended numerous meetings of the capital club.

A few days ago, the native of Essonne had already created a sensation by announcing a concert in May at the Stade de France.
A concert where 80,000 tickets were sold in less than 6 hours.
Suffice to say that this showcase will be an event not to be missed for fans of the singer and that the last tickets still available for the basketball match at the Adidas Arena on Sunday are likely to be snapped up.
Many other artists will also be present for the inauguration of the Parisian venue.
Rappers Jok'Air, Zola, Bigflo and Oli are also announced.
Just like the footballer Ousmane Dembélé.

Be ready !

Created in 2018, Paris Basketball has always maintained a close and very strong link between basketball and urban culture.
In 2021, he even recruited American rapper Sheck Wes.
An arrival which brought good luck to the club since it had achieved its promotion to the French elite at the end of this season.
The club, which will play on Wednesday evening, on the occasion of the arrival of Olimpija Ljubljana in the Eurocup, the last match in its history in the obsolete Halle Carpentier (Paris 13th), is aiming for a first title this season.
