Jansi wins the sixth edition of the Tremplin chanson du Haillan

She arrives last, in her colorful jumpsuit, on the stage of the Entrepôt du Haillan, this Friday, November 15. An obvious ease, a presence too. A little over twenty-five years since the Toulouse woman has been among us, from a generation pushed into the crossing of genres without chapel, a rare virtue of the music industry with globalized platforms. Jansi has thus not chosen between rap, slam, electro and song, and goes from one to the other with delightful ease.

We can regret, a sign of individualized times, that her subjects are once again devilishly self-centered, but from the opening of her twenty-minute set, she amuses and excites “Dear musical industry”, a cover letter addressed to this artistic world where she fully intends to stay for a few years.

Dosed slaughter

Accompanied just by a smartphone with careful programming, soft electro for syncopated flow, she leads from the start before going behind her keyboard for two tracks where her voice becomes a two-tone song, between “25 ans” and “Why” . She enhances her last piece (“It’s where”), again chanted while standing, with some well-balanced contemporary dance movements. Introspection but questions, dismay and communicative energy: Jansi writes well, composes accurately and has a very promising stage performance. Victorious.

Hampered by a general rough sound and performances lacking depth, the duo Kokopeli and Luxie are out of the picture. Checler narrowly misses the first step of the springboard podium. The rapper-singer-producer-songwriter is impressive with his impactful writing and stunt arrangements. But when trying his hand at a multi-instrumentalist solo with loops, he is not with the audience during the first two pieces, before delighting them on the last two (including “5 minutes with”), giving them, for once , want more.

The jury therefore puts Jansi in front, but the tie dimension is there: the two artists will be programmed next season in the Haillanes venue. The four finalists leave with a very careful video recording of their visit.
