Thibaut de Longeville directs short doc about iconic album cover art for 113 “Les Princes de la Ville”.
In 1999, Thibaut de Longeville and Alexander Wise created the cover art for French rap album “Les Princes de la Ville” by 113, considered as one of the most important albums in the history of French rap.
This year, Thibaut de Longeville was invited by the organizers of the “Hip Hop 360” exhibition at Philharmonie de Paris to create a short documentary breaking down the creative process behind the artwork, often cited as one of the greatest album covers in the genre’s history.
The film is presented exclusively in the exhibition, and was listed by France Info Culture as one of the “top 5 items to see” in the show.

Interactive Installation
An interactive installation exploring “the art of sampling” as practiced by DJ Mehdi.
We have also collaborated with the team at Philharmonie de Paris to create an interactive installation showcasing the art of sampling as practiced by our dear friend, the late DJ Mehdi.
The installation allows exhibition visitors to browse through original tracks sampled by DJ Mehdi throughout his career, from the tracks he created for French rap artists Idéal J, 113 or MC Solaar to his own solo work on Ed Banger Records.
