Christine and the Queens Essentials

Christine and the Queens Essentials

Héloïse Letissier assumed the persona Christine and the Queens in 2010, taking inspiration from London's drag scene in its fluidity of gender identity and musical genres. Letissier's multimedia freak pop is likely to segue between stripped-back passages that brandish his naked vocals, and classic synth, R&B or house beats with chamber pop flourishes—always threaded with raw emotion. Meanwhile, collaborations with Perfume Genius on "Jonathan" and French MC Booba on "Here" emphasise the vulnerable and uncompromising aspects of his assured voice.
