Drawing its lifeblood from the balance of words, Le Slow is an Ivorian-born rapper based in Ottawa, whose pen, shaped by 2010s francophone rap, draws from a wide range of musical influences, from the brassy accents of jazz to the emotional depth of soul.

Carried by raw, vivid writing, he offers a chiaroscuro aesthetic with captivating atmospheres that resist categorization. In his work, exploring the shadowy corners of the soul becomes a playground for layered and open interpretations, poised between restraint and excess.

He experienced a dynamic first year in Canada, marked by a series of competitions, performances, programs, and artistic residencies. He is currently working on a collaborative mixtape as well as a personal EP.
