About

Rilès is a musical enigma—a self-taught artist who defies genre boundaries with a sound that’s as introspective as it is explosive. Born in France and raised in a multicultural household, Rilès grew up surrounded by the rhythmic cadences of hip-hop, the soulful melodies of R&B, and the raw energy of rock. This eclectic upbringing laid the foundation for his genre-blending style, which he describes as "Sundayz"—a sonic universe where vulnerability meets defiance. His breakout project, *Rilèsundayz*, introduced the world to his unique approach: raw, unfiltered lyrics layered over beats that feel both intimate and anthemic. Rilès’ music is deeply personal, often exploring themes of identity, mental health, and self-discovery. Tracks like "Ego" and "Drôle de Môme" showcase his ability to weave poetic storytelling with hard-hitting production, earning him a devoted global following. His DIY ethos is central to his artistry—he writes, produces, and mixes all his music, creating a sound that’s unmistakably his own. In recent years, Rilès has expanded his creative horizons, collaborating with artists like Stromae and carving out a space in the international music scene. His live performances are electric, blending emotional intensity with a magnetic stage presence. As he continues to evolve, Rilès remains a voice for the restless and the curious, proving that music can be both a mirror and a window into the human experience.
