ASME, also known as Asme and VC Barre in some credits, is an artist from Quebec, Canada, associated with francophone rap and hip-hop. Emerging in the 2010s within Quebec’s urban music scene, Asme is tied to contemporary Canadian French-language rap traditions that blend trap, boom-bap and melodic elements. The music emphasizes rhythmic vocal delivery, street-oriented lyrical themes and collaborations with other regional hip-hop acts and producers. Asme’s work reflects the wider Québécois rap movement in its use of local dialect, urban storytelling and production that incorporates electronic and bass-driven textures.
