Additional Information
Sirine Hassani’s transhumance may not be epic… but it’s not far off! Born in France from Algerian Amazighparents, she arrived in Rimouski at the age of 18, and now lives in Quebec, Sirine Hassani is a solid French-speaking rap artist. Sirine’s extreme sensitivity and striking lucidity are her best allies and, as she will tell you in the following, they can also become her worst enemies. Sirine’s allies serve her obvious talent as a songwriter and rapper, embodied under the pseudonym Sensei H, adopted by the Quebec City rap scene, not to mention her successful appearances at the 2024 Francouvertes. Her first album, La mort du troisième couplet, was released at the end of 2024. She explains this at length in this video interview with Alain Brunet for PAN M 360, in the context of her imminent Montreal stopover on March 21 at Centre PHI.
