BEN plg - L'histoire sans fin

The album arrives during a period where BEN plg gains wider recognition without sacrificing the sincerity that forged his identity. Between the previous Dans nos yeux (2026) and this new project, he makes a move toward a binary sonic architecture: stylistic coherence imposed by Lucci' framed and nuanced by Murer's signatures.

Lucci' as chief architect: dominant stylistic consistency

While homogeneity can be seen as a strength in building an identifiable universe, concentrating production under the hands of a single producer inevitably limits the deviations that could have marked a second studio album.

Murer at work: the sonic framing from Paiement refusé to Un caillou de plus

The presence of producers like Neophron, Le Caméléon or Rosaliedu38 on key tracks brings the necessary textures to avoid monotony. While Lucci' ensures the foundation, these collaborators bring variations that prevent the album from closing in on itself too quickly, creating essential textural richness for a record this dense.

Narrative features: Orelsan and MATHILDE at the service of the central theme

It is in the vocal realm that the album finds its most striking counterpoints. Track 3, Mentir au psy, features Orelsan stepping in to lend a narrative and introspective dimension, bolstered by the production of Lucci' and Neophron. Further into the record, Camille Yembe joins on track 5, Si tu pars, introducing a female voice that contrasts with BEN plg's typical flow and adds an emotional texture. Finally, MATHILDE appears on Histoire sans fin to underscore the artistic evolution theme raised in reviews, bringing a melodic and poetic dimension to a key track of the project.

Critical Verdict: A Successful Balance Between Unified Vision and Sonic Richness

The temporal density of L'Histoire sans fin proves to be a major asset in this discography. With a total runtime of 46 minutes and seven seconds, the album offers roughly a three-quarter-hour journey that allows each track to breathe without scattering its focus. This balanced distribution between two main production figures avoids sonic saturation while maintaining a strong stylistic identity. Ultimately, L'Histoire sans fin functions as a coherent whole where the duality of production/soundcraft creates an equilibrium between stylistic unity and textural diversity. The concentration around Lucci' does not overwhelm the record thanks to Murer's framing and the sporadic interventions of other producers, while the chosen collaborations directly serve the central theme of personal evolution. It is an album where every artistic decision—from the selection of features to the allocation of production credits—seems calculated to maintain a constant tension between repetition and surprise.
