They started rapping with a few friends from the neighborhood and Karim's cousins: Tarik and Nabil Andrieu brothers, who later formed the PNL. Karim has appeared on PNL's 2015 mixtape, Que la famille and 2015 album, Le Monde Chico.
Formation and breakthrough
Formed in 2015, they made their debut with the release of an extended play (EP) titled Le H avant le B. In 2016, the duo released its first album La hass avant le bonheur, followed by the second, Sans rêve in the next year. In 2017, the duo was selected as one of the opening acts for PNL's six-city tour in France.
