About the artist

Gims, born Gandhi Djuna (later legally Maëva Djuna), is a Congolese-born French rapper and singer who first rose to fame as Maître Gims, the frontman of the pioneering French rap collective Sexion d'Assaut. Raised in Paris after moving to France as a child, he grew up in a musical family and began writing rhymes as a teenager before Sexion d'Assaut's mixtapes and albums made them one of the defining acts of French urban music in the late 2000s and early 2010s.

After the group's hiatus, Gims launched a hugely successful solo career with the album Subliminal in 2013, which spawned massive hits including «Zombie» and «Bella». His sound blends rap with pop, R&B and electronic textures, often built around catchy, melodic hooks that pushed him toward mainstream pop stardom across the French-speaking world and beyond. Tracks like «Sapés comme jamais» and «Est-ce que tu m'aimes ?» showcased his knack for radio-friendly collaborations.

Gims has remained one of the best-selling and most streamed French-language artists of his generation, known for prolific output, genre-blending production and a distinctive vocal delivery. He continues to release solo material while occasionally reuniting with his Sexion d'Assaut bandmates.
