Balance Ton Quoi is Angèle’s cheeky, tongue-in-cheek rallying cry against everyday sexism. Playing on the French hashtag #BalanceTonPorc (France’s version of #MeToo), the Belgian singer flips the script: if men feel free to talk “like animals,” she’ll answer with sharp wit, playful insults, and an irresistible beat. Angèle calls out cat-callers, back-handed compliments, and the idea that women should stay quiet to be accepted. Her message is clear: respect is non-negotiable, and a woman who speaks her mind should be the norm, not the exception.
Under the breezy pop-rap production, Angèle mixes humor with defiance. She jokes that she might not make it onto radio because her words are “not very pretty,” yet that irreverence is exactly what makes the anthem stick. By telling harassers to “go do one,” she highlights the absurdity of their behavior while inviting listeners to imagine a future where gender equality is standard. It’s a catchy, empowering reminder that change starts when we call out (or balance) toxic attitudes—preferably with a hook that stays in your head all day.
