On April 24, 2020, Ra-Syn releases his latest single "La Mer" on digital music platforms. The single was born when his friend and colleague Eric Vincenzini went on vacation to the Côte d'Azur in France in 2016. Eric said that he couldn't get the melody of "La Mer" (Charles Trenet) out of his head. 

During a joint exploratory expedition in Senegal, they were able to delve deep into the country's cultural scene. In this environment, the creative process was initiated to make "La Mer" into a version of its own and to draw attention to the catastrophic conditions that continue to this day.

"It was important to me not to stand here with a raised forefinger, but simply to tell a story that emphasizes the motives. Poverty and dreams of people who see no way out and leave their homes, no matter what it costs."

A network of Ra-Syn's friends were enthusiastic about this idea, including the experienced producer and rapper "Krotal (Paul Edouard Etoundi Onambélé)" from Cameroon. Krotal has worked with Manu Dibango, Didier Awadi, Kelly Rowland, Pit Baccardi, and many other African artists, as well as Bobo Brunel Artyst B., who has become an integral part of the Parisian party scene. Both exceptional artists contributed the beats for the newly-created project in their unique way.

The versions of the song were recorded in the Cologne studio Golden Factory(Aras Yadegari ) where the gifted jazz trumpeter Karz von Bonin and Stefan Plassmann (backing vocals) added the finishing touches.
