Much more than a simple French rap group, Nantes group Hocus Pocus integrate elements of soul, jazz, funk and hip-hop into their tracks, rejuvenating a scene that has been stagnating for a long while. The group uses rhymes with irony and humour, creating a new, refreshing sound. Their name already sounds like a magic spell for Dour this year.
