Biography
Nassi started writing songs at the age of 11.
Before deciding to "eat chicken nuggets" and start a singing career, he had written songs for other artists, such as Kendji Girac, Claudio Capéo, Soprano and H Magnum.
In January 2017, he released his debut solo single, titled "La vie est belle", which reached number 100 on the French singles chart in April and would eventually be certified Gold by the French national syndicate for music publishing (SNEP).
This was followed by the single "Pas fatigué" in June.
In addition to several singles, Nassi has released his album "Arabesque" in 3 volumes.
In 2018, Nassi had a shot at representing France at that year's Eurovision Song Contest with his song "Rêves de gamin", reaching the final of the national preliminaries (televised on France 2 under the title Destination Eurovision).
Nassi's music has been featured in the educational song competition "Manie Musicale" in 2020, 2022, and 2023.
