00:00Hello everyone, with an artist who would obviously like to go through Lausère and also
00:12the Occitanie region for numerous concerts.
00:15Today we are collecting the life and especially the presentation of Néna Kissamer.
00:20Good morning !
00:21Hello Jonathan!
00:23How are you, Nena?
00:23Yes, it's going very well!
00:24It's a pleasure to have you.
00:26So you already explained to us off-air, obviously, your desire to perhaps do concerts in Lausère
00:32and then why not look for a turner because we know that you are from Saint-Etienne.
00:37Exactly, and it's true that I like to go to concerts and I also love to travel around France.
00:43and even beyond France to meet the public.
00:47So, Lausère is another song that I haven't explored and I would be delighted to come and join you to sing, that's for sure.
00:55So first of all, we're going to discover a little bit about who you are, a world music artist who performs many different types of music.
01:01now for more than ten years, music, songs that are broadcast all over the world.
01:07Yes, exactly, it started like that with broadcasts outside the perimeter of French territory,
01:15It started with Australia, Mexico, Canada, Lithuania and Belgium, and then I forget some.
01:23Indeed, the project first became known outside the territory
01:27and then there was a relay on the territory with you, there was a network which was then established in France.
01:36But it is certain that access to radio is very different between abroad and mainland France, and France.
01:43Obviously, we'll introduce you a little bit to your musical style, we could say world pop music, is that it?
01:49We know that today you have changed your style and visual identity a little.
01:54Yes, I changed the visual identity because I experienced something very nice.
01:59with the visual presentation that I had before, since I had red eyes, I had a red beret,
02:05and the objective of the approach was really to say to ourselves, well, if I ignore my physical appearance,
02:14Is the audience likely to be interested in the content of the songs and come to see me in concert?
02:21despite an appearance that could, perhaps not shock, but which could surprise?
02:27So not everyone went to concert halls to see a pretty redhead in a red beret,
02:32but those who came, I thought they were people who might be interested in what I was really writing
02:38and not be interested in my physical appearance.
02:41So I experienced that, I experienced that when you are a woman, you are not allowed to do everything,
02:50since I have sometimes had the right to some rather difficult reflections,
02:54but who showed me that a woman didn't necessarily have the right to do everything she wanted.
03:00So it taught me a lot and once I experienced that, once I lived that,
03:07I freed myself from that experience to say to myself, well, when people come to see me in concert,
03:14It's not a physical appearance that makes them come to see me in concert, it's really me.
03:18So now that they know, I'm going all the way, I'm continuing by appearing now
03:23as I really am.
03:25The assurance of having a base of an audience who come to see me because there is music
03:30and songs that appeal to them more than physical appearance.
03:34Here are some songs that, over time, have shaped your personality.
03:39You've been releasing some new ones lately, as you can see, I'm dancing with you.
03:43Yes, you see, I always dance with you, which I did in piano-voice to return to something very refined,
03:51to also tell the public who follow me that I have settled in Paris,
03:55I have changed many things in my artistic project and I am restarting my project in Paris
04:01as if I were starting completely from scratch.
04:05So I wanted something very refined to take the audience on this adventure of mine.
04:12and that they share all the stages of construction, deconstruction, reconstruction.
04:20As life is in all ways, nothing is stable in life, everything is moving all the time.
04:25So it is without filter that I share all this life experience with the public who follow me
04:34and then also to say, well, I'm really like you.
04:37I'm certainly going through some of the same challenges you might find yourself in.
04:40and the strength of resilience is that, whatever happens, we turn obstacles into strengths.
04:48So there, the obstacle I faced when settling in Paris,
04:51It's about completely losing the work team I was with.
04:55and rebuild everything and meet new people
04:58and meeting these new people brings new visions.
05:02So that's what I transmit with, you see, I always dance with you,
05:06beyond the fact that it's a title, of course, which is a love story.
05:10Okay, so it's interesting to know the story behind this new title, your style.
05:16We also remember that you received a few years ago,
05:18So that was in your old life obviously, the Sassème prize, explain to us in detail,
05:25because it actually follows you for life.
05:26Yes, so it was in Savigny-sur-Orge in Ile-de-France that I actually received this prize,
05:34notably thanks to the interpretation of a title called Baxonge,
05:38where I actually do sophrology, without telling the public,
05:42but it's sophrology that I'm making you do.
05:44And this title, yes, actually allowed me to obtain the Sassème jury prize,
05:49and I am very, very proud of it, since the prize was awarded to me by Jeanne Talon,
05:55who directed the Olympia.
05:57So, yes, it's a good memory, I'm happy with this prize,
06:01I'm glad I did it,
06:03especially since I had escaped this prize when I had entered a first competition in Saint-Chamond,
06:08at the time it was with another group called Exidentiel,
06:11and the person who won that prize was Amélie Lécrayon.
06:17And we were a trio, we came just after Amélie,
06:22but Amélie is such a beautiful artist,
06:24that I am very proud to have been in the same session as her,
06:28and I am obviously very proud to have won the Sassème prize a few years later.
06:33Here it is, and it is a very particular journey,
06:35It's true that when an artist wins prizes,
06:39It's good to talk about it, to say it,
06:41and also a little bit of sharing it with his audience.
06:44An audience that still follows you despite a change in visual identity,
06:49he keeps following you.
06:50So will you have any upcoming dates coming up soon?
06:54Do you also have any clips on social media that you plan to create?
07:00Yes, so the dates, of course it's something that I'm keen to resume,
07:06to resume the concert.
07:07Before, there will be the exit, I hope, I cross my fingers,
07:11of three new titles.
07:13So I put myself in the producer's hands again,
07:18that I am, to release three new titles,
07:22in order to also convince today's performance halls,
07:26of the interest of the project,
07:28and then of its evolution, of its entire construction.
07:30So yes, there are three titles that will be released, I hope, soon.
07:36Accompanied by clips, certainly not all three,
07:38because it's obviously a budget to produce a music video.
07:43I'll see.
07:43I am already in the production phase of these titles,
07:46and of which I am very very proud,
07:49with collaborations that will be carried out,
07:52and which will, I think, surprise.
07:55Surprise, and we remember that you are a stage artist,
07:58that you like to perform in concert.
08:00Yes, I love it.
08:01Yes, I love it.
08:02So everything is not always possible at the same time.
08:05My priority at the moment,
08:07It's about really taking the songs into the universe
08:12which is only mine.
08:14That is to say that through past collaborations,
08:16I was able to be influenced in the way of producing the arrangements.
08:21And the advantage today of having resumed self-production of this project,
08:26it's just the arrangements of the new titles
08:29are really the arrangements that I wrote.
08:32I wrote every line, every drum line,
08:35each bass line, the violins, the piano,
08:37the accordion when there is one, the guitars.
08:39It's really me who writes each of these arrangements.
08:45without making any arbitration, except my own.
08:48So I am keen to put it back in your ears,
08:53in my hands, titles that I have completely built,
08:57which are completely my universe and also completely me.
09:01So this production is important to me.
09:04This is also the one I will present to the programmers.
09:08and to the programmers.
09:09And when you come to the concert,
09:11you will really meet Nénacty Samer in his entirety,
09:15in the arrangements, in the texts too.
09:18You have already passed through the commune of Sète,
09:21besides we had met,
09:22or the stronghold of Georges Brassens.
09:25Exact, exact, exact.
09:27Indeed, I came to Sète,
09:29with the evidential group.
09:32But that was years ago.
09:34It's been years.
09:34We won a prize, the Georges Brassens prize, at that time.
09:41And then I came back to Sète.
09:43My stage name, Nénacty Samer, what is it?
09:47I don't know, almost ten years ago,
09:50maybe a little bit less,
09:51where I met Jeanne Dallon in particular.
09:53It's a great memory.
09:55So, you also need to do it from time to time
09:57remember good memories,
09:59especially when you progress in music,
10:01we are one, one artist.
10:03This allows us to lay some foundations,
10:06in fact, and to say to oneself,
10:07we can do better, we can do even more.
10:10You see what I mean, Nénacty Samer?
10:12Yes, it is continuous improvement.
10:14We hear about this in the business world,
10:18but in the artistic world,
10:20It is an obligation, continuous improvement.
10:22We cannot stagnate.
10:24That's important, precisely.
10:25We must move forward.
10:27So, precisely, your relationships in music,
10:30Over the years, they have changed.
10:33Tell us a little bit today,
10:34the people who help you move forward,
10:35Do I think you are getting more and more lonely?
10:39in your music, I mean, independent?
10:41Yes, I am completely independent.
10:44I'm not in co-production, I'm in production.
10:47So, I take responsibility for all the artistic choices that are made.
10:50I am responsible for all collaborations with the studios.
10:54I choose the studios I work with and I'm very happy about that.
10:59Yes, yes, I am completely independent there.
11:02So.
11:02And then, also remember, at the level of your musical influences,
11:06This is a question I ask regularly,
11:08the musical influences of Nénacty Samer,
11:11besides your music which is world, pop, music,
11:14Today we can also say variety.
11:16Yes, yes, yes, I totally take responsibility and I'm very proud of that.
11:19and I'll tell you why.
11:22When I was a kid and times could be tough at home,
11:27the moments of sunshine came when I pressed,
11:30at the time, it was called Antenne 2,
11:33and I was looking at the Champs-Elysées.
11:34And behold, the light came at that moment
11:36and we crossed different musical styles,
11:39we saw artists who came from everywhere,
11:41I remember the Creole company,
11:42I remember Jelmas, etc.
11:45And it stayed deep in my heart and soul.
11:49and when I do concerts,
11:51I bring back what I experienced when I was a little girl,
11:53When I opened it, I turned on the TV.
11:57So yes, I do French variety.
12:00in the sense that I write French songs
12:04that I wander through universes that have touched me
12:07and which continue to touch me.
12:09Yes, I am very proud to do French variety.
12:12Very well, then precisely,
12:13Let’s go back a little to the regional and local.
12:16You know the Xtine region,
12:18already because it is at the border
12:19with obviously Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
12:21that you know very well from the commune of Saint-Etienne.
12:24So you're not very far from us.
12:27And besides, you've already been through the area.
12:31You are obviously looking for turners.
12:32What email address can we reach you at?
12:35if we want to offer you a concert?
12:38Yes, so the email address is
12:40nenaquisamer, therefore n-e-n-a-k-i-2-s-a-m-r
12:46at yahoo.fr
12:49So you can send me an email,
12:51I will gladly answer.
12:52I am also present on social networks,
12:54whether it's Facebook, whether it's Instagram,
12:56whether it's Twitter.
12:57There is also the official nenaquisamer website
13:00on which you can go to the contact page
13:03and send me a message.
13:04So that's all the information.
13:07And today, a show dedicated to this artist,
13:10obviously, for many upcoming concerts.
13:14That's what we wish for him.
13:15And then for the turners in the Kistanie region and in Lozère,
13:18Now you know Nena Kissa Mer.
13:21Thank you very much, Nena,
13:22for giving of your presence.
13:25And above all, we wish you continued success.
13:28Thank you, thank you. I'll see you soon.
13:30Well, see you soon Nena.
13:32And then I remind you that we know each other anyway
13:34for over 15 years now.
13:36Yes.
13:37At the radio level, etc.
13:38It's organity.
13:40Met in 2010 for another radio station.
13:43And now Nena has made great progress since then.
13:46I was, let's say, one of the first animators,
13:48one of the first media at the time
13:50for giving him the first interview.
13:52Do you realize, it's been 15 years now.
13:54And I'm giving you a scoop that you don't know,
13:56that I'm teaching you live today.
13:58It's that Nena Kissa Mer,
14:00Nena Kissa in Creole means who is there.
14:02It's Reunion Creole,
14:04and that means who is there.
14:05And the answer is M'R,
14:07that is to say the initials of my civic first name.
14:13Civil or civic, I don't know how to say it anymore.
14:15Brief.
14:16And when I did an interview with you,
14:19Immediately you called me Nena.
14:21And it became, from that moment on,
14:23my first name Nena.
14:24So you own the paternity of the fact
14:27that everyone calls me Nena today.
14:30I hold the key.
14:31Well, in any case, it was a discovery,
14:33a great discovery.
14:34And then we continue this relationship,
14:35always close to Occitania,
14:37and then also from Lozère, from the South,
14:39to Saint-Etienne.
14:40Nena, who is her mother,
14:41So, I introduced you today.
14:43Thank you, Nena.
14:44And then, we wish you to continue in music.
14:46with, as they say, positivity, sunshine and happiness.
14:51Yes.
14:51Thank you very much, Jonathan.
14:53See you soon, everyone.
14:55And to you, of course.
14:56With pleasure.
