An Unmissable Show at the Zénith of Dijon
The Zénith de Dijon has hit the jackpot: the very first French date of Tiakola's M3LO WORLD TOUR.

Tiakola, the Melodic Phenomenon
If his name doesn't ring a bell (really?), here's a little catch-up. Tiakola is one of the most streamed artists in France with nearly 7 million monthly listeners. He started his career in the group 4Keus, before shining on his own with a unique style, a subtle blend of rap, R&B, gospel, and Congolese rumba. His album "Mélo" (2022) became an instant classic, snagging a triple platinum record and establishing itself as the most listened-to album on Spotify in 2023. Always where you least expect him, he surprised his audience in 2024 with the EP "X", which brought his rap DNA back to the forefront while pushing the boundaries of the genre.
Tiakola is also an avalanche of prestigious collaborations: Gazo, Hamza, SDM, Ronisia, and many more. In 2025, his influence is stronger than ever. Nominated for the Victoires de la Musique in the categories of Male Artist of the Year and Album of the Year, he continues to push boundaries and establish himself as an essential figure in the French music scene.
BDLM Vol. 1: the new generation of melos in the spotlight
In September 2024, Tiakola also made a splash by becoming the headliner of the mixtape BDLM Vol. 1 (Welcome to the Game). This collaborative project highlights the young talents of rap and melodic music, featuring an explosive 100% melodic tracklist with Hamza, Génezio, Rsko, Merveille, Jolagreen, Zed, Monsieur Nov, and many others. A project that confirms his role as a leader and trailblazer in the game, always pushing forward.ours ready to build bridges between generations and music styles.
