Biography

Dubbed "the French Eminem," rapper Sinik, born Thomas Idir in Paris on June 26, 1980, channeled his troubled youth and anger into hip-hop. Co-founding the group L'Amalgave in 1996, which later became Ul'Team Atom, Sinik released his first solo EP, Malsain, in 2000. His major breakthrough came with the release of the underground hit Artiste Triste in 2003, leading to a deal with Warner Bros. and subsequent successful albums like La Main sur le Coeur and Sang Froid.

Sinik's journey from a tumultuous past to a successful rap career reflects his resilience and determination. Surviving multiple prison stints, he found solace in music and collaborations, notably with fellow rapper Diam's. By establishing his own label, Six o Nine, and releasing impactful albums such as Artiste Triste, Sinik solidified his place in the French hip-hop scene, ultimately achieving mainstream success with hit records like La Main sur le Coeur and Sang Froid.
