Onyx & L'uzine Ignite Global Rap Collab With Explosive Single "Paris Is Burning"

Onyx is linking continents and generations with their scorching new single, “Paris Is Burning.” The legendary South Jamaica, Queens group teams up with France’s underground rap crew L'uzine for a high-octane preview of their upcoming joint album — a rare, possibly unprecedented collaboration between two full rap collectives from different countries. Known for their aggressive delivery and raw energy, Onyx brings their signature East Coast grit to the track, while L'uzine — featuring members Cenza, TonyToxik, Tonio le Vakeso, Souffrance, Biyiway, Dpa, Msb, and DJ Keshkoon — match the intensity with confident French verses and tight chemistry. Though lesser known globally, L'uzine has been a staple of the French underground since the early 2010s, and their lyrical prowess shines through here. The result? A gritty, anthemic track that bridges New York street rap with Parisian firepower. If “Paris Is Burning” is any indication of what’s to come, this upcoming full-length collab is shaping up to be something special — a cross-cultural moment in hip-hop you won’t want to miss.
