Lomepal: 1000°C clip

Love this video by Lomepal, taking French rap to far stranger territory than it might normally go.

It's the first track from his forthcoming new album which is due out in December and features a contribution from Belgian rapper Roméo Elvis.

Lomepal's debut album Flip was released in June last year and was one of the biggest selling rap albums of the year.

The Paris-based artist, known to his family and friends as Antoine Valentinelli has attracted a huge number of views to his work on YouTube, released his first EP  20 mesures in 2011, following it with Le singe fume sa cigarette in 2013.

His rigourous live schedule has helped him build up a massive following ahe he plays at the Détonation festival in Besancon at the end of the month.

He's got a sold-out show at the Olympia in Paris on October 4, and he recently announced a tour of the arenas around France, Belgium and Switzerland early next year including the Zénith in Paris on February 20.
