MC Solaar is one of the most popular and richest Rapper who was born on March 5, 1969 in Dakar, Dakar Region, Senegal. French jazz rap artist Magnum 567 was released in 2011.
He was featured artist on Missy Elliot’s All N My Grill.
Solaar’s career continued to evolve throughout the late 1990s and into the new millennium. He released Cinquième As in 2001, to critical acclaim and Mach 6 in 2003. In the album’s third track, “Lève-Toi et Rap”, Solaar describes his parents’ move to France as well as his own roots growing up in Villeneuve- Saint-Georges and Cairo. Towards the beginning of the song he says: Puis trip en Egypte, Ecole Française du Caire/ Pour parfaire mon flow et mon vocabulaire/ Là j’ai appris l’humilité, la peur des cartouches/ Pur style de sniper camouflage paw-mouche, which translated, means he spent time at a French school in Cairo, perfecting his rapping style and learning how to survive a dangerous lifestyle. Critic Dan Gennoe attests to Solaar’s “flow et vocabulaire” by noting “the flow of his words is staggering, as are the low- slung grooves that they roll to; deftly vaulting all language barriers.”
He studied languages at the Jussieu university campus and was a postgraduate in Philosophy. He released his first single in 1990. MC Solaar went to Paris in the summer of 1991 with his friend Jimmy Jay in hopes of succeeding in the music industry. Success came quickly when his first single, Bouge de là (“Get Out of There”), based on a sample from Cymande’s song The Message (1973) became a hit in the early 1990s. Many rappers who came out of Africa at the time spoke a lot about slavery and other topics in order to bring the history of their people into light. Nevertheless, the song went platinum in France and reached #5 on the national charts.
He married Chloe Bensemoun December 7, 2003, and they have a daughter, Bonnie.
