Bigflo & Oli shed 'cockroach' label ahead of summer festival tour
In a weekly interview series by Le Monde's 'L'Epoque', French rap duo Bigflo & Oli—brothers Florian and Olivio Ordoñez—discuss shedding their formerly polished image and the longevity of their partnership.

The duo is preparing for a series of concert dates at summer festivals. The interview is part of a recurring feature where the publication buys the subjects a drink ('un apéro').
