Orelsan Calls Mbappé Lyric Spat a Misunderstanding as Mbappé Declines Further Comment

The rapper says the contentious line reflects an inner voice from his new album.

Overview

  • In a Fun Radio interview on Wednesday, Orelsan said the dispute was likely a misunderstanding and that he did not want to respond further.
  • He explained that the track La petite voix channels a negative inner critic, framing the controversial lyric as part of that device.
  • The line “You’ll sink your city like the Mbappés” refers to the Mbappé family’s 2024 takeover of Caen through Interconnected Ventures, the hometown club Orelsan supports after its relegation last season.
  • Mbappé had earlier accused Orelsan of being two‑faced on social media, invited him to “save” the city, and claimed he sought a free 1% stake in the club.
  • Asked at France’s training camp on Wednesday, Mbappé declined to comment, saying, “Nothing to say, I’m not interested.”
