Chéraze, after breaking up from The Mess continued on a solo career with a hit in 2015 entitled "Promets pas la lune" charting in SNEP, the official French Singles Chart.[5] The rapper Tunisiano appears on the vocals with a rap section, although the official cover doesn't credit him. He also appears in the music video for the song.[6]

gollark: It does, zfill?
