Peet is one of the leading figures on the new Belgian scene, and is gradually conquering France! A lyricist, singer and beatmaker, he made his name with the group Le 77 before going solo. His writing is unique, poetic, sensitive and authentic. He draws his inspiration from personal stories that a whole generation can relate to, from urban setbacks and life stories.
Project after project, he remains in the field of urban music, but he has nevertheless refined his style. With his album Joyboy, he returns to his love of instruments, delivering an album that is even more personal, organic and driven by an ever more assertive musical sensibility. The album's round, jazzy tones are imbued with soul and funk, but its aesthetic is also more pop and luminous than before.
The title of the album comes from One Piece. "I'm a big fan of the manga. He's a character who brings order to a world that's not going well. I wouldn't describe myself exactly like that. But he's someone who's been through a lot. Literally "happy boy", Joyboy here becomes a metaphor for finding inner peace, keeping hope despite doubts, becoming an adult.
