“Shame”, a talent, is controversial even before the broadcast because of his choice of song

In parallel with Dance with the stars And Koh Lanta, TF1 kicked off season 13 of The Voice. Zazie, Vianneythe tandem Bigflo & OliAnd Mika, have decided to move back in and occupy the coaching chairs to try to unearth the best talents who could become the stars of tomorrow. During the first two bonuses, some of them managed to retain the attention of those and the viewers, like Mia, who joined Mika even though all her competitors had turned around, and Olema, whose universe also attracted the British singer of Lebanese origin.

But, conversely, others can spark controversy. This is the case of Red varnisha mysterious singer accompanied by two musicians on the occasion of premium 3 broadcast on Saturday February 24. In a teaser video published on the social networks of the first channel, we see the trio moving serenely on the set of The Voicebefore the young woman sits down at the piano to perform a song in a totally unexpected rap register.

A controversial rap hit in The Voice

Indeed, Vernis rouge tackled a classic of French rap – Organized band -, written and performed by the training 13’Organized by Jul, Kofs, Soso Maness, Naps and SCH, published on the eponymous album four years ago. On the online listening platform Spotify alone, the song has 254 million streams. A colossal score comparable to that obtained by certain popstars with their hits, like Miley Cyrus or Taylor Swift at the top of the list.

As soon as the singer intoned the first words of Organized band, the coaches appeared taken aback, surprised to hear a piece like that resonate in the studios of the television show. Bigflo & Oli immediately stood up, suggesting that they particularly appreciated this cover. “For her, a cover is successful if it manages to make people like it who, originally, would not have liked it or listened to it. Vernis Rouge offers a very different version of this triple diamond disc title. From the first ones words, the Coaches can’t believe it”underlines TF1 in the caption of the extract broadcast on Youtube and accumulating 120,000 views after just a few hours.

Bigflo captivated by the performance

But the least we can say is that the extract divides despite everything, including on Instagram where it reached three million views. In the comments already posted en masse, Internet users are particularly vehement. “A shame to sully such a beautiful voice with such a pathetic song”, “What hell”, “Shame” or “Intolerable”, we can read on Instagram. Worse still, one internet user wonders why this performance simply wasn’t “banned from broadcast”.

Anyway, Bigflo liked it and buzzed, without the approval of his partner Oli. TF1 leaves no doubt and already confirms that the artist will indeed continue the adventure: “Vernis Rouge was able to convince the coaches BigFlo and Oli and will continue the adventure with them“we specify.
