SOMAESTRO the viral rap

ME.LAND is much more than simple shoes. From the mix of inspirations, materials and colours emerges a daily behaviour. The philosophy of this adventure is quite simple: Stay on the tracks? Follow the rules? Why not. Provided that there is no way, one can erase his own character.

ME.LAND collaborates with artists from the French music scene as usual. Somaestro has agreed to take the pose for ME.LAND and chose his own sneakers in the collection.

Sofiane, twentyish, from Tremblay in the 93, discovered the piano a few years ago by chance in a flea market. He decides to learn to play it on his own to surprise his family on his little sister's birthday. He discovered a real passion for the instrument and never let go. While walking in a shopping center, he stumbles on a piano and starts playing it, not knowing that his friend was filming him.

Once posted on social networks, the video goes viral and quickly reaches 200,000 views, so much so that Booba, the French Rap singer, shares it on his own story. Sofiane then decides to be called Somaestro on Instagram and continues his momentum by performing on the piano the biggest hits of his favorite rappers, such as Ninho, Jul, Damso, and of course Booba. Seeing the craze, and 30,000 subscribers later, Somaestro decides to tell his own story by rapping his life on the piano.

His first single is called "My Piano" and the music video is produced by Kaid Productions, to whom we notably owe the clips for 13 Blocks "Little Heart" and "Fuck le 17".
