Orelsan is known for songs like “Changement” (2008), “Suicide social” (2011), “Basique” (2017) and “Du propre” (2021). He has won numerous accolades at the Victoires de la Musique, a prestigious French award ceremony held every year.

It is Orelsan’s first time working with a Korean act. He said through Sony Music that he became immersed in Fifty Fifty’s song “Pookie,” which ultimately inspired the collaboration.

“Orelsan’s artistry and storytelling conveyed deep meaning to us,” Fifty Fifty said in a press release. “We were able to feel the film’s emotion and energy through the song, and explore our own distinctive, fresh color.”

Fifty Fifty debuted in 2022 and is best known for the song “Cupid” (2023).
