1. The emergence of an international hybrid profile

A seasoned author, composer, performer, and producer, Makino Scram has established himself as one of the most prominent rising stars on the international urban music scene. Shaped by a dynamic, cross-border journey connecting Belgium, London, Paris, and Dakar, he has developed a highly hybrid musical universe. At the precise intersection of sharp, melodic rap and organically textured urban pop, his signature sound breaks established norms to offer an artistic proposition that is raw, sophisticated, and firmly rooted in the realities of our time.

2. Genesis: From behind-the-scenes work to instrumental requirements

Nothing in Makino Scram's trajectory is a matter of chance or opportunism. A former active guitarist on the Afro-Parisian scene, passionate and continuously involved in instrumental and vocal practice since the age of 14, he forged his artistic identity in the rigorous discipline of jazz, blues and rock clubs and ndombolo and Gospel scenes.

This solid background as a stage musician forms the cornerstone of his current approach. It allows him to approach modern urban production with rare technical sensitivity and precision, transforming each track into a complex sonic architecture where catchy melodies blend with the percussive energy of trap.

3. Anchoring 2025: Strategic continuity, radio rotations and appointments

The artist's current cultural impact is part of a rigorous market strategy initiated in the previous year. On June 27, 2025, the release of his landmark single "Réformé" sparked immediate critical and popular acclaim. Praised for its message of resilience and unfiltered authenticity, this track firmly established the artist within the West African music scene.

By 2025, "Réformé" was integrated into the broadcast schedules and official playlists of leading stations such as RFM (Radio Futurs Médias - 94.0 FM) and Radio Témoin. This impressive launch led to its first official nominations in the industry, laying the solid foundations essential for breakthroughs in 2026.

4. 2026: The European lever IZI BLA and its consecration on 2sTV

The year 2026 marks the acceleration and institutional validation of the artist across multiple media. In January 2026, he delivers a technically impactful performance on the prestigious Belgian urban streaming platform IZI BLA, immediately capturing the attention of specialized editorial teams in Europe and West Africa.

In May 2026, this collaboration reached a historic peak: his very last Live Session at the IZI BLA studios was broadcast live on Senegalese national television, 2sTV. As the country's leading private channel and a major cultural showcase, 2sTV provided the artist with immense media exposure to millions of households. This prestigious television appearance generated a wealth of articles in the national print and online press and boosted his regular programming on RFM and Radio Témoin, establishing an unbreakable connection between Europe and Africa.
