Stanislas Georges Dinga-Pinto (French pronunciation: [ʒɔʁʒ stanislas malik diŋɡa pinto]; born 6 April 1994),[2] better known by the stage name Niska (French pronunciation: [niska]), is a French rapper from Évry, Essonne. He is signed to Universal Music France and Barclay Records. He was initially in the rap group Negro Deep before going solo. Niska is an anagram of the shortened version of his name (Stani) with the syllables in reverse (Nista). He then replaced the "t" with a "k". Niska has released four albums, Charo Life (2015), Zifukoro (2016), Commando (2017), Mr Sal (2019), and Le monde est méchant (2021) with the first two reaching number 3 on SNEP, the official French Albums chart and the third and fourth topping the French chart.
