Will French rap be subject to a new clash between two rappers? Already in conflict with Booba, Maes recently attacked other rappers from his rival’s label, 92I, with a lot of pressure, this time, the Sevranais artist has just targeted, Lacrim.
Maes takes a dig at Lacrim
It all started with sharing a ranking on social media of the most streamed tracks from Lacrim on Spotify. in first place is the single “AWA” with French Montana, the title has 84 million streams on Spotify, followed by the song “Ce soir ne sort pas” with Gims and its 53 million streams. Among these titles, we find in third position the song “ Boston George » with 44 million streams, a collaboration between Maes and Lacrim released in 2020 on the mixtape “RIPRO, volume 4”. It was at this precise moment that the author of Omerta decided to intervene by discovering this Top 10 from his former friend, accompanying the sharing of the story with an enigmatic message: « How many traitors have we helped« .
This sentence, deliberately ambiguous, immediately gave rise to various interpretations among Internet users. Some see it as a simple dig, others see it as a real accusation of treason. In any case, it is clear that Maes is trying to provoke a reaction from Lacrim with this publication while the latter has not yet responded at the moment, he is not likely to appreciate this tackle.
Although they have collaborated in the past, relations between Maes and Lacrim therefore seem to have deteriorated over time. The reasons for this animosity still remain unclear at this time.
