PNL (Peace N' Lovés, pronounced /lɔve/, translated Peace and Money) is a French rap group formed in 2014 by two brothers, Tarik and Nabil Andrieu (known as Ademo and N.O.S),[1] from Corbeil-Essonnes,[2] a city in the southern suburbs of Paris.
Biography
Early life
Tarik and Nabil Andrieu grew up in the neighbourhood of Les Tarterêts in Corbeil-Essonnes. Tarik was born in 1986, and Nabil in 1989.[3][4] Their father, René Andrieu, a Pied-Noir native of Corsica, was involved in a bank robbery and served an eight years sentence at the Maison centrale— the designation of prisons for dangerous and/or long sentence detainees in France— of Poissy. René is an important figure in his community. The brothers were brought up in the absence of their mother, a native of Algeria.
Career
They released their debut album Que la famille in 2015. Their second album Le monde Chico was released on 30 October 2015 and was certified 2X platinum in March 2016 for selling over 200,000 copies in France.[5][6]
Their third album Dans la légende released on 16 September 2016 was certified diamond for selling over 1,000,000 copies in total in more than 5 countries around Europe.[7]
PNL were set to perform at Coachella, one of the biggest music festivals in the United States during its 2017 edition. However, due to Tarik's criminal record, he was denied entry into the country.[8]
On April 5, 2019, PNL released their fourth album, Deux Freres, which sold more than 100,000 copies in its first week of release, a record for French rap.[9]
