Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Laissez-les Kouma by Zaho from French to English.

Intro

Let them talk

He or she said the news isn't good

I'll only tell you, don't tell anybody

He or she did it, I think there was a mistake

I'd really be surprised if anybody forgives them

I hear hallway whispers echoing in the distance

Whether it's true or false, everybody makes a big deal out of it

And if everybody's friend is nobody's friend

Leave me in my corner, the vibe's good here

No, you have no idea

Why say it out loud

The vibe's approved

The field's marked

Let them ta-a-a-alk

Tomorrow we'll have moved on-on-on-on-on-on

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

What're you talking? About my life, you know nada

You're one of those people who make up sh*t big time

It's true you're nice, but you're not reliable

Even faker than the guy with no flaws

So-and-so and so-and-so are together, it's true

It's the local liar who's saying that

He won the lottery and ditched the fam

When happiness comes close, the jealous leave

You left them, according to what you say

She left you, according to what she says

Everybody's got their reason

Everybody talks, but each has their version

Let them believe

Let them chatter

You're not hypocrisy

We're climbing the steps

Keep worries away from me, I'm tired

I ain't got time for them

I wanna have fun

No, you have no idea

Why say it out loud

The vibe's approved

The field's marked

Let them ta-a-a-alk

Tomorrow we'll have moved on-on-on-on-on-on

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

My ears are ringing

Red card

My ears are ringing

Red card

And my ears are ringing

Red card

My ears are ringing

Everybody moves

No, you have no idea

Why say it out loud

The vibe's approved

The field's marked

Let them ta-a-a-alk

Tomorrow we'll have moved on-on-on-on-on-on

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

Let them talk, hey hey

Let them talk

SONG MEANING

Rumors buzzing in the hallway? Ears ringing from all that chatter? In “Laissez-les Kouma,” Algerian-born singer Zaho joins afro-trap star MHD to fire back at the gossip mill with a smile. The Lingala-inspired title means “let them talk,” and that is exactly the duo’s message: spill your stories, exaggerate the drama, invent whatever you like—we will be over here enjoying the good vibes. References to “bruits de couloir” (hallway whispers), a “carton rouge” (red card) and tomorrow’s collective amnesia paint a lively picture of rumors that spread fast and fade even faster.

Instead of wasting breath clearing their names, Zaho and MHD choose celebration over confrontation. They call out myth-makers who “know nada” about their lives, shrug off jealousy, and focus on having fun: “L’ambiance est validée, le terrain balisé”—the party is set, the mood is right. The song’s bouncing beat and catchy hook turn this anti-gossip anthem into a dance-floor invitation: ignore the noise, live your life, and let the talkers talk while you keep moving forward.
