French Rap Artist Orelsan Says a “Misunderstanding” Caused His Feud with Mbappé
Orelsan explained the feud as a misunderstanding rooted in his album's concept of an inner critic, with lyrics referencing Mbappé's 2024 Caen soccer club takeover.
- On Wednesday, Orelsan said a 'misunderstanding' likely caused his feud with Kylian Mbappé after a lyric in 'La petite voix' referenced Mbappé's family and the 2024 Interconnected Ventures takeover of Caen's club.
- Orelsan explained that 'La petite voix', a track on 'La fuite en avant' album, features an inner voice criticizing him, his family, and fans, reflecting his Caen roots.
- Kylian Mbappé responded on social media last week, writing 'You're welcome to come 'save' the city you love so much,' and accusing Orelsan of seeking '1%' without paying a cent.
- Following the exchange, Orelsan sought to de-escalate, telling Fun Radio, 'I don't really feel like responding,' and adding, 'I'm still in the heat of the moment, and I don't really want to talk about it.'
- Orelsan grew up in Caen, where the lyric referenced the 2024 takeover of Caen soccer club by Mbappé's Interconnected Ventures, while Mbappé prepares with the France national team facing Ukraine on Thursday.
