Lascars Museum

Thuggish, nerdish, indie, club, die hard, or those who keep it fake… La Caution is one of the only groups that all French Hip Hop fans can seem to agree on. However, music is not the topic now.
In America you have “the projects” and “street cats”, in France we have “cités” and our very own “lascars”. Different culture, different slang, different style. France better recognize that in two centuries, those little rascals will probably take the place of those 18th century French Revolutionaries whose portraits grace the walls of our historical museums. The Air Max will replace the sabots, the Lacoste cap will be the next Phrygian cap, and “verlan” (backwards slang – imagine a French street version of Pig Latin) will only be spoken by a few bearded historians. The deadly combination of Nikkfurie and Hi-Tekk, collectively known as La Caution, took us to their “cité” of Noisy-Le-Sec in order to introduce you to the new breed of French Revolutionaries. Peer into the present, because in the future, these are the faces that will hang on the walls of Le Louvre.
