Buckle up – Gringe’s “Du Plomb / Effet De Surplomb” is a rap that ricochets between street-level chaos and intergalactic daydreaming. One minute we’re dodging riot police and flying paving stones, the next we’re floating far above Earth, realizing our blue marble is just a lonely speck hanging by a thread. That constant zoom-in/zoom-out effect creates a dizzying “surplomb” (overlook) sensation, asking: if everything from law enforcement to open-spaces feels rigged, what do bullets – or the weight of the world, “du plomb” – really solve?
Here’s the trip in a nutshell: • Social commentary: corrupt systems, “legitimate” violence and citizens treated like Sims. • Cosmic vertigo: a reminder that in an expanding universe, human drama is a blip. • Absurdity checklist: money as God, recycled renaissances, drunken Native Americans, frozen fires – Gringe catalogs humanity’s contradictions to show how little makes sense. • Takeaway: when existence itself feels obsolete, pouring more lead into the problem won’t help. Better to pause, question the script, and write your own meaning instead of firing off another shot.
