Mini World is the only studio album by French singer-songwriter Indila. It was released on February 24, 2014 by The Island Def Jam Music Group. It is the first album to dethrone Racine carrée by Stromae from the top of the Top Albums chart. At the 2015 Victoires de la Musique, it was named "Revelation Album of the Year."[1]

To date, it has sold over 630,000 copies in France and approximately 850,000 worldwide, particularly in Belgium and Romania, where it was certified gold, as well as in Poland, where it received a diamond certification.

Background

[edit]

The album is produced by the French producer, Skalp, who had already produced songs that Indila was featured in. The album was released on 24 February 2014. The album's second single, "Tourner dans le vide", became associated with kickboxer Andrew Tate after it was used in several viral videos featuring him. Fighter Darren Till indirectly paid homage to Tate by walking out to the song during his UFC 282 match against Dricus Du Plessis.[2][3]

Singles

[edit]

The lead single, "Dernière danse", was released on November 13, 2013. Its music video premiered on December 5, 2013, featuring intercut scenes of Indila singing against a panoramic view of Paris.[4][5] As of December 2024, the video has garnered over 1.228 billion views, making it the only French song to reach this milestone.[6][7] Following "Dernière danse", "Tourner dans le vide" was released as the album's second single. The song was written by Indila and composed and produced by Skalpovich.

The third single, "S.O.S", was released via Capitol Music France and Universal Music Group. Its music video, shot in Greece, premiered on June 27, 2014. The fourth and final single, "Love Story", was written and performed by Indila, with composition by Indila and Skalpovich. As suggested by its title, the song narrates a love story. The music video, directed by Karim Ouaret and produced by Jalane, serves as a continuation of the "S.O.S" video, concluding with a panel displaying the inscription "Love Story." It premiered on YouTube on November 17, 2014.
