Esperanzah

Rilès, the self-taught Franco-Algerian rapper, gained recognition through his commitment, releasing a song every Sunday from 2016 to 2017 as part of the RILESUNDAYZ project. This endeavor provided him with significant exposure, culminating in the release of his debut album, Welcome to the Jungle, in 2019, making him the first French rapper to sign with an American label. In 2025, he makes a comeback with Survival Mode, an album brimming with intensity, reflecting the same ambition and determination to establish his place. He will be showcasing this project at Esperanzah!, where his flow, which fuses hip-hop and RnB, promises an electrifying live performance. Be sure to catch it on the Jardin stage, Friday night.

Barbara Pravi, a singer, songwriter, and passionate advocate for women's rights, utilizes her platform to promote feminism by gifting a feminist song to her community every March 8th. In September 2024, she released her second album, LA PIEVA (titled "LA CHANTEUSE" in Serbian), named after her ancestor from 1750. Her concerts transcend mere performances—they narrate stories, infused with the purity of her crystalline voice. Barbara lives and breathes for her audience, and her powerful live energy is the reason we’re excited to have her at Esperanzah! She will be performing on the Jardin stage this summer.
