Planète Rap 2 Match: the recap

The long-awaited meeting between rappers and streamers/influencers finally took place!

It’s time to take stock of the event, organized for the benefit of the Abbé Pierre Foundation and with Project X Paris honored to be a partner.

A crazy crowd, an insane show on and off the court, great vibes: a look back at this perfect Sunday!

A huge success Let’s not hide our pleasure and get straight to the point: the Planète Rap Rappers vs Influencers match was a big hit.

Exceptional, the match gathered over 300,000 people live on Twitch, on Skyrock’s channel, and on KMS’s channel!

Twitch viewership numbers similar to the GP Explorer or the Streamers France vs Spain match organized by Amine earlier this year. As usual, we come strong!

Such an event only makes sense if massively followed, so we obviously want to thank the many people who animated the chat and the event on social media and Twitch.

And it wasn’t only followed on social media but also on YouTube, where over 130,000 people watched the replay on Skyrock’s YouTube channel.

As for the stands at FC93 stadium in Bobigny, they were packed! More than 1,500 people came to support the event and the players that Sunday, who had to face very hot weather. Thanks to the crowd’s passion in the stands, players could put on a show during the match, and what a show it was!

The big show on and off the court The main question around the event was: what would be the real level of the participants? Would they deliver a great match? No professional athletes in the group, and some rappers who, as we know, don’t hesitate to party at showcases. And as Marco Verratti has shown us for 10 years, partying is bad for cardio!

But the players and the show delivered on June 11, with an already high-scoring game: the match ended 8-8. Many goals, but also many great moves. First among the streamers, with a very fit Boucif, who even assisted on Vargas’s opening goal. But also among the rappers, with a very active and skilled Bendo Z and Favé in the opponent’s half, and a very fit Kerchak too. Hatik also ensured the show, making everyone laugh with his hookah at halftime. We also saw a brace from ISK, and Kerchak played the whole match with his balaclava and even scored!

On the court, the show was guaranteed. And off the pitch, everything was lively too! Thanks to the supporters who came in large numbers to bring atmosphere to the stands. Also thanks to Fred Musa and everyone who commented passionately and humorously, creating a great vibe while keeping the playful banter we really appreciate. We also thank Kodes, who besides guarding the rappers’ goal (a tough task given the disorganized defense), put on a great halftime show with Rapi Sati and Coull B. A mini energetic showcase at halftime, in front of an enthusiastic crowd.

Of course, we also thank all the dancers who really set the place on fire, as well as the prestigious guests who came to watch the match, like Rim'K, Sefyu, and Heuss L'Enfoiré, who coached his colleagues from the sidelines like a Pep Guardiola of the 92.

Project X Paris front row We had a beautiful moment of sharing and good vibes in Bobigny that Sunday afternoon, with a great show.

At PXP, we are extremely happy to have participated in such a large-scale event, especially since it was for a good cause, to fight against poor housing thanks to funds raised for the Abbé Pierre Association.

Moreover, for this match, we did more than collaborate, being a true leading partner for the match and everything around it.

Our brand was present on all jerseys of both teams, as the official sponsor. We also provided outfits to the dancers for their show and distributed dozens of bucket hats, bags, and goodies in the stands during the match. Even the great Fred Musa joined in by dressing in PXP, wearing the short-sleeved plain black shirt. The PXP shirts were very popular that day, both among the dancers and Rapi Sati during his halftime show.

We enjoyed the atmosphere so much during the day that we’re already looking forward to next year, to participate in the new edition if there is one. Given the situation, it’s very likely that the Abbé Pierre Foundation will still need a boost in a year, and we will be happy to be there. Participating in such big popular events, where thousands of people gather with dancers, influencers, and rappers, is exactly the image we want to give of Project X Paris. Our "feel good" side is fully assumed, and we are delighted to have carried these values of sharing and good vibes in front of so many people: 1,500 in the stands, plus 300,000 on Twitch, you are simply incredible.

We also take this opportunity to thank the PXP team members mobilized and present on site to ensure the smooth running of this unmissable event.

A big thank you to everyone, and see you next year!
