D.ACE

D. Ace, real name Claude Samake, was born in Paris in 1993. Passionate about hip-hop, he took his first steps in September 2016 by publishing a freestyle, for starters. He did so under the stage name D. Ace, which comes from his manga reading, in this case One Piece, in which the character Portgas D.Ace, known as "Ace with burning fists", evolves. This first freestyle on the theme of "chicken" draws attention to his highly controlled flow and overflowing humor. The video quickly went viral, attracting the attention of KFC. But the artist also became a conscious rapper when it came to raising the case of young Théo, who had claimed to have been the victim of violence at the hands of police officers. This led to the song "Bavures policières". But his first single came in February 2018, it was "PTR - Pourquoi tu rages", which reached a million views on YouTube in the space of a month. It preceded the release of his debut opus, Inévitable, which saw the light of day in May 2018. Two years later, he released his successor, Vox Cordis, featuring some twenty tracks, including one with fellow artist S. Pri Noir.
