Over the years, The Voice has allowed many talents to come to light. This was particularly the case of Louane, Kendji Girac, Claudio Capéo and Amir who all experienced immense success after their time on the famous TF1 telecrochet. Likewise, Slimane also managed to cause a sensation on set in 2016. By performing the title On the flower of you
by Vitaa, the 35-year-old artist not only seduced Florent Pagny but also the whole of France.
A collaboration with Vitaa which marks Slimane’s career
Since winning season 5 of The Voice,
Slimane hits one after another. First with
Panama which allows him to make himself widely known, including on radio waves, but also thanks to Thousands of I love you or even My love.
It is also with this last song that Slimane’s popularity has crossed borders. And for good reason, the artist made a splash earlier this year at Eurovision by defending this title. But the greatest success of his career certainly remains her collaboration with her friend Vitaa.
From success to separation
While he had performed one of his songs during his blind audition, the one who is today the target of two damning new testimonies finally found himself at sing a duet with Vitaa. A nice way to come full circle. With their joint album entitled VersuSthe two friends caused a sensation.
“We didn’t expect so much fervor”had also confided Slimane during an interview with Chérie FM. But despite unprecedented success, the duo decides to separate in 2021. A choice that Vitaa, visiting M Radio, explains as follows: “It’s a project that has worked enormously and it’s magnificent. But if you really want to stick with something good, It’s good to know when to stop.”.
Vitaa: “It’s the end of many things”
In reality, if Vitaa and Slimane wanted to stop their collaboration, it was for a very specific reason and it was neither more nor less than a “very nice break”
in their respective careers. It is indeed each on their own that both artists are now evolving.
“It’s the end of many thingsit’s also the start of other things together. Resumption of our solo careers, it was just planned”had assured the singer, always very frank, with La Voix du Nord.
“People will have to get used to the idea of Vitaa without Slimane and vice versa. We had a life before, we will have a life after”she continued. But fans can rest assured, it’s not because they no longer sing together that the two artists are no longer friends. Quite the contrary:
“We are in the studio together to help each other on our respective albums”. That’s nice to hear.
