I don't like Swiss rap. As a movement, there's no real Swiss rap. Suffering from an identity crisis for quite a while, swiss rap tries to sound like French and/or American Hip-Hop. In brief: copycats. Therefore, En?gma isn't like them. Rappers acting and making music without pretending to be gangsters, hustlers or drug dealers is kinda rare, so it's worth to notice it. En?gma doesn't pretend to be anybody else but himself, something you can definitely hear and feel in his music and especially in his new mixtape "En Haut 2 l'Affiche 2" ("on top of the game"). Sometimes ego-tripping, most of the time confiding, the rapper of Vevey raps about his impression and feelings of life and values in a rather unique way among Swiss rappers. This sincere speech is musically accompanied by atmospheric beats and b-sides that perfectly represent the rapper's artistic sphere. En?gma kinda floats on the instrumentals and that particularity makes him for me the first representative of cloud rap in French. So if you don't have anything against French-speaking rap and appreciate the work of rappers such as Main Attrakionz and producers like Friendzone, you'll surely be interested by the sympathetic atmosphere of this project. And even if I don't like Swiss rap, I do like some Swiss rappers like En?gma.
