"We had a great time"
The collaboration between the two artists, who had already met, was done in a very spontaneous way.
All that was needed was the intervention of Pierre Grillet, lyricist and director who worked in the past with the rapper and rocker.
"With Didier [Didier Morville, alias JoeyStarr] we've known each other for a little while," Dani recalls.
"One day, he told Pierre Grillet that he loved his song
C'est-c't'as, quoi-c't'as pas?, Which
I had sung.
And Pierre answered him 'You just have to come and sing it with Dani, we'll do a duet', ”she explains.
Dani and JoeyStarr then meet naturally in the studio.
"We had a great time," recalls the interpreter of
Comme un boomerang
.
"And Joey really made the song his own."
Indeed, in the 2020 version of
Quelle-c't'as, quoi-c't'a pas?
JoeyStarr doesn't just rap but sings, in the more "traditional" sense of the term.

Total admiration for JoeyStarr
We understand the way Dani speaks of "Didou" her admiration for the singer and for the man whose rebellious side she praises.
But the singer also admires in the actor of
Polisse
the stage presence in the theater.
JoeyStarr was indeed recently illustrated on the boards in
Eloquence to the Assembly,
a play co-written by Pierre Grillet.
The former NTM proclaims a selection of speeches from the National Assembly that have marked the history of France.
“It's beautiful,” Dani marvels.
"The fact that it's him, the way he plays on stage, it's very beautiful. He captures everyone's attention with these obviously political speeches, but especially magnificent when it is he who says them."
An admiration and a bond between the two artists who transpire in their duo.
