Early Life & Education

Hatik, born Clément Daniel Maxime Penhoat on November 26, 1992, in Chevreuse, Yvelines, grew up in the Garennes neighborhood of nearby Guyancourt, a working-class suburb of Paris.

His father, of Breton descent, was a guitarist, and his mother, of Guyanese origin, was a singer, filling their home with music.

His ethnicity reflects this mix—Breton and Guyanese—blended with his French upbringing. His religion isn’t publicly known, as he keeps such matters private.

With two younger brothers, he grew up in a tight-knit, music-loving family described as “mélomanes et travailleurs” (music lovers and workers).

No specific details about Hatik’s formal education are available. Growing up in Guyancourt, he likely attended local schools; however, by the age of 16, his focus had shifted to music. Self-taught in rap and songwriting, he learned by crafting lyrics and studying the French hip-hop scene.

Career

Hatik’s music career began in 2014 with the release of his debut mixtape, America 2 – Connaissance et style, under his chosen stage name, which he adopted in 2008 due to its catchy two-syllable sound during online gaming.

In 2015, he caught attention with a remix of Disiz’s La Promesse alongside Soprano, Youssoupha, and Dinos.

His 2017 EP, Par le pire, featured the single “Avec Téva,” but his big break came with the Chaise pliante project (2018–2020).

Filming freestyles on a folding chair, he dropped hits like “Angela,” which topped YouTube’s music video charts and earned platinum status with over 100 million views.

His 2019 mixtape, Chaise pliante, and its 2020 sequel, featuring guests like Médine and Hornet La Frappe, both went platinum.

In 2019, he shot five music videos in Berlin for Projet Berlin with Daymolition. His 2021 album, Vague à l’âme, and its follow-up, Noyé, explored love and heartbreak, with tracks like “1, 2, 3” featuring Amel Bent winning an NRJ Music Award.

As an actor, Hatik debuted in Les Sauvages (2019) and landed the lead as Apash in Canal+’s Validé (2020), earning praise for his role as a young rapper.

He also appeared in DogMan (2023) and Hatik: Génération (2022). His 2024 album, +1, featured hits like “Bye” with Vitaa, and his sold-out Olympia show cemented his status as a French rap icon.
