This Saturday, September 3, Booba will perform for the first time in his career at the Stade de France. This unprecedented concert, sold out for several weeks, is the most ambitious envisioned by the rapper since his debut 25 years ago.
“The Stade de France is the consecration, it is the result of all these years of coal,” Booba declared in front of the Chroniqueur auction on YouTube.
For the occasion, the rapper has prepared many surprises for his 80,000 viewers. Guests, setlist, duration… We take stock of what this unique event awaits us, eagerly awaited by the artist’s fans.
• Opening act and guests
Eager to highlight the talents he discovers, Booba has invited several artists from his 92i label to the stage of the Stade de France. Last May, one of his foals, rapper SDM, announced on social media that he would open Booba at the Parisian venue alongside his buddy Green Montana.
The two artists, signed to the 92i label, will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. for a one-hour concert, according to event organizers. In addition to this first part, Booba will be joined on stage by various guests such as Gato or Maes.
• 2h30 concert
As specified by the Stade de France, Booba will enter the scene around 8:50 p.m. and will leave it around 11:15 p.m., almost two and a half hours of show.
This duration is “quite exceptional for a rap concert” according to the specialized medium Booska-P and is reminiscent of Jul’s show at the Stade Vélodrome in Marseille last June, before 60,000 spectators.
Asked during an interview with the youtuber Le Chroniqueur Sale, about the content of this concert, Booba assured that the decoration and the pieces would be “up to” the event.
The rapper confesses, however, that given the breadth of his discography, it was not he who was in charge of choosing the songs that will play. “I’m not a target anymore, I have too many sounds, so I let my team choose.” He assures anyway that certain classics will be unavoidable like “Veyron 92i, dkr, Where 3G”.
• A broadcast program
If the Booba concert has been sold out for several months -despite the sale of 3,000 additional seats in mid-August-, the interpreter of boulbi decided to make this “big mass” accessible to fans who couldn’t get a ticket.
On August 30, Booba announced that his concert would be streamed from the site. booba.store in France but also directly in Brazzaville (Republic of Congo), Kinshasa (DRC), Ivory Coast, Benin and Guinea.
Tickets are available from €15. However, access will be free for people who are in possession of an NFT of the artist.
