Budding West Coast artist Kresnt recently teamed up with Montréal’s own FouKi for a dope new bilingual single.
“All Bleu” is an R&B/hip-hop record which fuses an infectious hook and vocal harmonization of both artists in French and English. Very similar to the Drake-assisted “Greece” by DJ Khaled, FouKi sprinkles some French for the cherry on top while Kresnt flows flawlessly with comedic Eminem-styled bars: “Ever since I got cake, the women getting badder.”

The new track follows Kresnt’s Ahmed EP which was released in September as a tribute to the late Afghan popstar Ahmad Zahir (June 1946 – 14 June 1979). Kresnt was also recently featured on CBC Music for his single “Don’t Listen” which was released immediately after his album Ahmed with the lead single “Soul Search.” Not to mention, the single “Never Picked” was recently featured on Beats 1 with Ebro Darden on Apple Music radio.
Meanwhile, FouKi has been promoting his 4-track release Grignotines which came out in October. His incredible year continues with “All Bleu” after releasing his highly anticipated single “Bjou.”

“All Bleu” has already racked up over 36K streams on Spotify since its release on Nov. 6 (and another 33K on YouTube). Along with Spotify, the track is available on various digital streaming platforms including Apple Music and TIDAL via The Lunar Cycle and Disques 7ième Ciel.
