Synopsis
Saïd M'Roumbaba (born 14 January 1979), better known by his stage name Soprano, is a French rapper, singer and songwriter. He is a part of the rap group Psy 4 de la Rime. After leaving the group to make his first solo album he recorded his solo debut Puisqu'il Faut Vivre which made the Billboard European Top 100. He returned in 2010 with a new solo album called La Colombe, which included collaborations with numerous artists such as Indila and Amadou & Mariam. He has continued to work with Psy4 de la Rime: their third album, Les Cités d'Or, was released in 2008, and their fourth album 4eme Dimension came out in April 2013.
On 19 September 2019, Soprano entered at the Musée Grévin. His wax statue wears a hat signed by De Bornarel, a Karl Lagerfeld jacket and Aaron Jah Stone jewellery; the outfit is the one he wore at the NRJ Music Awards 2018 ceremony. "We kept this outfit, we thought it mixed The Voice, my career, the scene... it summed it up well" he told France 3.
Acting
Noirs en France
as Self
What do black French people have in common? Not much, apart from their skin color and the racism they experience. For the first time, the film "Noirs en France" gives the stage to black French people of all ages and from all backgrounds, known or unknown to the general public. Told by the writer Alain Mabanckou, this documentary retraces their stories, anchored in prejudices and stereotypes, but also filled with hope and pride. These blacks in France build a history in constant transformation.
Vianney : N'attendons pas, le concert événement
as Self
Due to the global pandemic, it is only in the fall of 2021 that Vianney, accompanied for the first time by musicians, has reconnected with his audience. For this concert event, the artist promises a flamboyant, mischievous, family-oriented and ever-warming show, with surprise guests coming to accompany him for the occasion.
Soprano: Sing or Die
as Self
The documentary series tells of the journey made by Saïd M’Roumbaba (aka Soprano), son of Comorian immigrants born in Marseille’s Northern neighborhoods and now one of France’s most popular artists. It reveals a key element of this success: a friendship “for life” with the three other craftsmen of this saga: Mateo, Mej and Djamali.
