Canadian singers Mitsou and Ya Cetidon released a new single, C’est Chaud (+ HOT) (It’s Warm). It’s a perfect song for the Summer season (here in the northern hemisphere). The song is about celebrating the warm weather and possibly a blooming love story.
The music is French Pop combined with RAP/R&B. This new rendition of Mitsou’s 1994 original, C’est Chaud, has a dynamic sound. The musicians are fantastic with the beats of drums, guitar, etc. They create a festive ambience. The composition has an eclectic and electric beat that complements the Summer vibe. The music is quite favourable for dancing. Mitsou, Raphael Dumas and Daniel Couloumbe did excellent work composing this tune with bold, vibrant energy. It perfectly blends 90s French Pop with contemporary pop and RAP/R&B sounds. It’s impressive to hear. It’s an homage to the original version but also represents taking advantage of the Summer weather, a timeless subject.
Mitsou and Ya Cetidon’s voices complement each other nicely. Ya Cetidon is incredible at performing the verses, and Mitsou sings the last verses with heart and soul. They perform this version of Mitsou’s 1994 single C’est Chaud with enthusiasm and excitement for the Summer season. The rhythm is nice and wavy, creating an upbeat atmosphere throughout the song. There’s so much excitement.
The lyrics are simple but so expressive. It also has a summer love story component that adds an extra touch of whimsy to the song. The verses and the bridge are detailed and perfectly describe life during the Summer, including partying with friends. The chorus is simple, uttering the phrase “C’est Chaud” (It’s hot) repeatedly, which represents the importance of taking it easy and not overthinking. Mitsou, Toko and Raphael Santarossa made an excellent team, writing a simple yet catchy piece. It also teaches the importance of taking a break before returning to work and daily routine. There’s a feeling of joy and excitement as the Summer season finally kicks in, with endless possibilities of summer activities.
The single C’est Chaud (+HOT) is available.
