L’uZine – Eternels Insatisfaits (2012) [France]

The track’s lyrics are filled with dark metaphors, aggressive delivery, and tight rhymes. Rappers describe how the System tries to trap them within the “work-home-work” routine, but being “eternally dissatisfied”, they refuse to accept the social roles offered to them.

On the one hand, there are corrupt media and well-fed politicians; on the other, the hungry outskirts whose interests no one represents. The text is also imbued with contempt for “flashy rappers”. The group members emphasize that their true value lies in street respect rather than lucrative money contracts.
