JolaGreen23, the hope of French rap for his new project “+99XP”

JolaGreen23 is distinguished by a personal symbolism linked to numbers and its favorite color, green. Aged 23 and born on March 23, he chose this number as his pseudonym and draws on his attachment to numbers, a passion that has always followed him. “ I grew up with numbers. I played basketball. We have assigned numbers. Even numerology is important to me “. This interest in numbers also guides him in his artistic approach, as does his attachment to the color green, which he even adopts in his stage name, “La Green”, in homage to his favorite color. Originally from Bois-Colombes, he shares cultural roots with local artists like Kerchak, but his own journey took shape in 2020, during confinement.. In this uncertain period, he transformed an uninhabited place into a self-financed home studio which became his “bendo”, and produced his first pieces. Aware of the need to stand outhe says: “ There were a lot of guys making music in the town where I lived. The best thing was to differentiate yourself as much as possible ».

A career well launched

The rapper, although young in the music industry, is already prolific. In a single year, he released three projects and participated in several renowned festivals, such as Cabaret Vert, Dour, Yardland. He is also noticed with a freestyle noticed by Grünt, performed in a unique airport station atmosphere. Passionate about rap, he remains influenced by rock, having grown up listening to groups like Green Day, which he considers one of his favorites: “ I bled it when I was little “, he said, speaking of Know Your Enemy which he listened to on repeat. This double influence enriches his music, which, although classified as rap, remains open to eclectic inspirations. JolaGreen23 also admits: “ If I hadn't been a rapper, maybe I would have become a rocker ».
