HOUDI

In August 2022, Houdi released Woka, a four-track EP with a summery sound, before unveiling the dark La Bête, an eight-track project, in the autumn. In January 2023, he releases the Grhünt #77 EP and follows this up with La Folie des Grandeurs, a nine-track project including collaborations with 34murphy and Stony Stone. With the latter, he also records the joint project Avant les Yeux. In 2024, Houdi releases the mixtape Hood Volume.1, featuring featurings with Guy2Bezbar, Ziak, Lesram, winnterzuko and Dosseh. He closes the year with the album Le Dernier Rayon de Soleil, buoyed by the track Dalida in collaboration with So La Lune, which reaches 3ᵉ in the French sales charts.
