Infos Jeunes France - Toute l'actu en temps reel

Greg Basso recently released his debut single “Baila Lo”, (“Dance It” in Spanish). This French artist’s roots also lie in Spain and Italy, explaining the track’s mix between dance-hall, salsa, reggaeton, and hip-hop sound. A smashing and refreshing hit ! A musical sundance !

"A specific genre would have been too difficult for me to settle on... I’ve always loved Latin rhythms, largely because of my Spanish heritage. I’m also a clubber - I love being on the dance floor. That’s why I needed the mix. This song is 100% Greg Basso - a mélange of the music I love the most.”

“I worked with several producers from south of France - people who brought a certain Mediterranean light to the track. It really showcases the spirit of the people from the region. I knew equally that I wanted to include a Latino & electronic influence, with an urban hip-hop sound ».
The « Milezim », a hip hop / reggaeton ensemble from Paris with Columbian and Lebanese heritage fit the bill perfectly.” “Baila Lo” is sure to make you move your feet and shake your body all summer long !

At 34 years old, Gregory Basso has a very rich heritage. He does after all speak three languages fluently - English, French and Spanish - and has had the opportunity to use all three on journeys around the globe. His professional experience goes without mentioning - beginning with the hit Fox TV, Show “Greg Le Millionaire”, first broadcasted in summer 2003 on TF1. This continued in in 2005/2006, in the piece “On tire bien sur les lapins” by Gérard Pinter at the Trévise Theater, which was showcased for more than four months. During this time, he also made several noted appearances on television.

Gradually, Gregory felt an irresistible desire to put more and more into that which he was driven towards most - music. It was in 2006 that he decided to begin his career in music. “Baila Lo” is his first single, which will be followed by a full-length album in November 2008.
