DOKS

Originally from the Congo and now based in Paris. These cultural flavours go into the potent brew that DOKS serves up. Smooth like butter with a hit like cognac. France has a solid legacy in urban music and DOKS is a cool carrier of the heritage. Honey vocals carried by soulful jams that hit where it matters.

Lyrically, he avoids the clichés and flows with intelligent words that are actually worth listening to.

In a world of anonymous singers DOKS is the old deal. Confident, dripping in charisma and making it all look effortless.

No wonder the US urban royalty keep an eye, and ear, on France.
