Georges Stanislas Malif Dinga-Pinto, rapper, was born in Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, France in 1994. His parents are Congolese. He spent his childhood and adolescence in Evry, surrounded by African sounds like coupé-décalé, ndombolo and zouk. In the streets, he encountered hip-hop culture. Initially, he was influenced by American artists like Gucci Mane and Migos. Later, Georges shifted his interest to French rappers and embraced his African origins. He launched his first mixtape in 2015, later gaining popularity due to his participation in the song Sapés Comme Jamais by Maître Gims. He combines hardcore rap and African rhythms, singing in French and Lingala. The song BOC refers to his Congolese origins. His expression, charo (determined), infiltrated the vocabulary of the French youth.
