”How are you bro?“That’s the question Oli asked Bigflo following Elio, a 19-year-old student from Montpellier, finished his performance.
As the second salvo of blind auditions of this twelfth season of The Voice was launched, this candidate chose a great risk-taking: to resume the song of the rapper duo. And not just any music: he decided to sing “Bitch”, a piece tackling the difficult theme of prostitution.
The Toulouse brothers were overcome with emotion following the resumption and, while Biglfo wiped away his tears, Oli praised the talent of the candidate: “Wow. Cheer. You moved Flo, who always looks good and is always in clown mode. It’s rare, it’s too much fun” he begins, laughing. “Well done man. Really super excited. I feel Flo’s emotion too, we are very touched. It was a great moment. Really”. Bigflo then congratulated Elio in turn: “I think it takes a lot of courage to come up with a piece like that. When it’s my own sounds, I’m even more critical because I feel like someone is attacking one of my babies. In general, it’s rare to have me on a sound to me. You said it with a kind of urgency, of rage, which we didn’t put into the text. So thank you already for the honor you do us to sing it at The Voice”.
Even Vianney said he was turned upside down by the cover of Elio, who called the piece a “nugget” of Bigflo and Oli’s repertoire.
Although Zazie also turned around to contemplate the performance of the candidate, it is obviously the duo of rappers who was chosen by Elio.
