Paco & Mani Deïz – Le Couteau Sous La Gorge (2019) [France]

True to its title, “Le Couteau Sous La Gorge” (The Knife at the Throat) focuses on intense systemic pressure and street survival. The track is built on a minor-key sample and a steady rhythm produced by Mani Deïz. Over this backdrop, Paco delivers sharp lyrics about resilience and refusing to back down.
