While waiting impatiently for the continuation and his concerts, here is the first news and two titles live on France Inter …
Pop Up, the unique live event created by France Inter
Radio France goes live on the 22nd floor! On his terrace with an exceptional 360 ° view of all of Paris and the Eiffel Tower, an artist comes to record a few video titles which will be broadcast on the France Inter website, Youtube, Dailymotion and the social networks Facebook, Instagram, Twitter.
After Julien Doré, Woodkid for the release of S16, Alain Souchon for Âme Fifty-Fifties and Aya Nakamura, it’s Eddy from Pretto which created the event with two live titles:
Bateaux Mouches
Three years later … It is the first single from this future opus, an autobiographical song which tells of his very first beginnings: singer on the Bateau-Mouches in Paris, his first job. He embarked on the Seine to sell dreams to tourists and sang Piaf, Nougaro, Rihanna or Nina Simone … He was nobody but finally he sang, which allowed him to think that he would not stop there , a little sound “I already saw myself “… to him.
The new album “To all the bastards” … eagerly awaited
“It’s an ode to the people next door, to the bizarre, to the freaks, to the strange ones. A rallying cry, a reappropriation of a term deemed negative, to challenge and make it a force. A lot of times, I was made to feel different from the norm I was in, and I carried that like a real burden. Today this album title is a way for me to reverse the trend and be proud of it. But also to call to bring together those who heard me on my 1st album and (I hope) to welcome new and new bastards who will meet in this 2nd …“(Eddy de Pretto on social networks)

“Party too many” – Live
The Kid Poet of the Song
Eddy from Pretto arrived cash one day in October 2017 with a 4 tracks EP: Party too many, Mug Jungle, Beaulieue and also Kid, which reveals the child of Créteil to the public. Already ambitious, we discover an artist who takes an unprecedented path to land in the musical world: song, slam, rap, electro … and poetry.
2018 (his year) marks the arrival in March of his first album _Cure_, after some 50 concerts and his nomination to the Victoires de la Musique where he performed a Party too many. Immediate success: N ° 1 of the best sales of albums in less than a week, several millions of listenings on the internet and sold out concerts. Certified triple platinum, the album is reissued in a Worship (for the occasion) from November, with 4 unreleased tracks.
It’s as if we had been waiting for him for a long time, the artist with a beautiful pen, colorful and shameless texts in a singular and personal universe, a unique voice on a very heterogeneous music of fine compositions oscillating between rap and variety. He loves the French songs his mother listened to and the rap he listened to with his friends, he says he is influenced as well by Franck Ocean, Kanye West as Claude Nougaro, Charles Aznavour and Sela Sue, it is this mix that tells album Cure, uncompromising. A modest young man and not like the others …
