KRM

KRM is a rapper on the Ivorian scene whose music is rooted in Abidjan. His songs name-check the city constantly, from “COCODY”, named after the upmarket commune, to “BABI LA NUIT”, which uses the local nickname for Abidjan itself.

He has been releasing music since 2024 and has turned up as a guest on a long run of other artists’ records, including “225 DROGBACITE”. The EP En Attendant Newstalgia, whose title means “While Waiting for Newstalgia”, set up his album in June 2026.

NEWSTALGIA followed on 6 November 2026: 25 tracks, threaded together by short radio-style skits, with guests including TRK., THB, YJICK and jam$co. Very little has been published about KRM away from the music, so this profile sticks to the releases and will be updated as more becomes known.
