The Grammy-nominated artist tells FRANCE 24 that going "against the norm" and thinking "outside of a box or genre" were always part of his personality. His new album, "Dream Manifest", which will be released in June, continues in this vein. He says the record gives listeners an "uplifting feeling to manifest your dreams", but still contains a dark side. "We will definitely explore duality on this album," he tells us in Perspective. He is playing at Paris's New Morning concert venue this Wednesday. 3adf7a72-309a-11f0-89fb-005056a97652Wed, 14 May 2025 13:22:56 GMTCarys GARLANDFocushttps://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/focus/20250514-peru-s-battle-against-organised-crime-lima-gripped-by-rampant-violence It’s been a deadly start to the year in Peru. The country has already seen more than 700 homicides: a 20 percent increase compared to last year. These murders are often the result of extortion attempts, a crime that is also on the rise and affects all sectors: business owners, bus drivers and even private schools. To deal with the violence, the government declared a state of emergency in the capital Lima on March 18, but that has done little to help. Across the city, residents are exhausted and frightened.

NGOs such as the Red Cross have set up counselling centres offering free and anonymous advice to support those in distress. Also, Tunisia has fallen 11 places on RSF's latest World Press Freedom Index, as repression of journalists reaches new heights. Amid this pressure on press freedom, some journalists are trying to resist. Plus a three-legged stool has been returned to Benin.

But a familiar ally seems cut out of all the dealmaking. Donald Trump is on familiar ground in Saudi Arabia, where he made his first trip as president back in 2017. The US president may have said no to ceremonial Arabic coffee, but he seems ready to approve a landmark civilian nuclear agreement – one that no longer seems linked to Riyadh normalising ties with Israel. c7e917a4-3025-11f0-8356-005056bf762bTue, 13 May 2025 18:12:06 GMTFrançois PICARDEntre Noushttps://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/entre-nous/20250513-depardieu-guilty-verdict-exposing-flaws-in-french-cinema-and-courts With French actor Gérard Depardieu found guilty by a Paris court of assaulting two women on a film set, we dive into how this case has exposed multiple issues with the French judicial system, and how it could help shift what the French parliament calls systemic, massive abuse in the French film industry. d2976456-2fff-11f0-bab3-005056bf762bTue, 13 May 2025 14:11:15 GMTSolange MOUGINarts24https://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/arts24/20250513-cannes-chronicle-g%C3%A9rard-depardieu-found-guilty-of-sexual-assault-on-festival-s-opening-day The likes of Robert De Niro, Tom Cruise and Scarlett Johansson will be descending on the south of France for the glitziest date on the movie calendar, the Cannes Film Festival. In our Cannes Chronicle, our culture editor Eve Jackson tells about the most anticipated films and names expected on the red carpet, including a gay romance with Paul Mescal, a documentary about U2's Bono and the new and last instalment of "Mission: Impossible".

"I thought 'maybe it's too big for me, maybe they won't take me'," she tells FRANCE 24. Ultimately, though, the South African native went on to play Rafiki — the shaman of the Pride Lands — in both the Spanish and French versions of the production. "I think I'm the only person in my family who actually got to be an artist and go outside of South Africa," she says. The musical is now playing at the Mogador Theatre in Paris, and Ndlovu says she is adapting well to French life: "I love the country, I'm loving the people, obviously." She says what makes "The Lion King" special is its broad appeal, promising to "captivate" audiences of all ages. b54b187a-2fdc-11f0-ae5f-005056a97652Tue, 13 May 2025 13:08:18 GMTCarys GARLANDFocushttps://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/focus/20250513-competing-for-the-catch-of-the-day-in-louisiana-shrimpers-struggle-to-stay-afloat In the Gulf of Mexico, the prawn fishing industry has been undermined for several years by foreign competition, particularly from Asia and South America. US shrimp fishermen find it impossible to cope with the low import prices charged by these countries when they themselves are faced with rising fuel prices and inflation. In the state of Louisiana, one in 70 jobs is linked to fishing, meaning that an entire way of life is threatened by globalisation. Some of those fishermen say Donald Trump's import tariffs, which have now been suspended for 90 days, offer a glimmer of hope to an industry on its last legs.
