Unique scenography, communion with the public and complete musical show, we had to tell you about it.
We knew the strength of TIF in concert. He who is capable, with his entire team, of transcending the crowds, leaving an unforgettable memory in the brains of people who were able to attend his performance. Apart from a microphone that was sometimes too weak which made us miss some of the artist’s beautiful words, we can say that this date at the Olympia (sold out, obviously) was a continuation of what TIF has offered us in the past, a unique show, always precise, and a pleasant impression of having attended an important cultural piece.

An XXL performance and an ultra-receptive audience. He’s doing it again tomorrow for his second date at the Olympia. #musictok #tif #olympia ♬ original sound – Konbini
At exactly 9 p.m., Toufik known as TIF appears on stage as a Chinese shadow, discreetly revealing what will be one of the surprises of the evening, the scenography. This fairly faithfully reproduces the cover of his latest project, 1.6. Smoke escapes from the chimneys, light comes out of the windows and… on the roof, TIF. If on the coverhe is alone, this is no longer the case here, he is accompanied by a horde of musicians who will give another dimension, more orchestral, to the overall performance of the evening. The show can finally begin.
The concert will last almost two hours, Toufik exploring his discography, each piece is taken up in chorus by the public, from the pit to the stands. The longer the concert goes on, the more the stage fills with friends and members of his label. Houma Sweet Houma that he often highlights, close friends, nothing new in a Tif concert but it’s always beautiful to see. We set up a table and chairs on stage, we are now right in the Live Session of TIF, unveiled in October 2023 and which constituted another key point in TIF’s career (the Olympia is also one, another great step to take).
Then singers appear and the artists parade, Ellie Becker, Flenn (the rendition of the song “S12” on stage is stunning) but also Djam, the ultimate boss Rim’K and, as a symbol, the last guest of this evening, Zamdane .
Several exclusives released as a preview will close this concert before TIF and his crew leave more than worthily with the highlight of the show, “SHADOW BOXING”. Explosion of joy and communion on stage and in the audience. Drums, flags, scarves, everything is good to be brandished to participate in the party. What would the latter be without the delicious “youyou” who accompany him, giving another dimension to his already historic concert. In the corridors of the Olympia, while everyone is heading towards the exit and already thinking about how they can come back tomorrow for its second date, the words of TIF resonate with force thanks to the audience, more than ever won over, by an artist who once again gave love and hope without ever really counting:
“Personne pe-pom l’flow d’Toufik, I still have no fuck to give
Hinata doesn’t speak Chinese, I can understand her without subtitles”
