FouKi blends rap and diverse influences on new single “Léa”

After the success of Apéro, released last November, FouKi returns with Léa, the latest single from his upcoming album expected sometime in 2025. With this new release, the Montreal rapper continues to showcase his ability to merge rap with a wide range of musical influences while maintaining a deeply personal tone.

Built on an upbeat, summery production, Léa sees FouKi opening up about a central theme in his work: love. The song acts as a sincere and unfiltered ode to affection, dedicated to that person who deserves flowers, attention, and genuine emotion, without artifice.

A sound shaped by musical diversity

FouKi’s musical inspiration has always been plural. Drawing from Quebec and France, the Americas and beyond, his work reflects a constant dialogue between genres and cultures. On Léa, those influences subtly intertwine, echoing elements of Quebec chanson, folk, rock, blues, jazz, Latin music, reggae, R&B, trap, hip-hop, and Quebec rap.

Rather than leaning into a single genre, FouKi lets sounds and words intersect naturally. This openness defines his artistic identity, one that values curiosity, movement, and fluidity over rigid labels.
