On 13 September 2019, three years after the release of his previous album, Black M released his third studio album, Il était une fois...
Reception[edit]
Commercial reception[edit]
During its first week of operation, the disc sold only 5,600 copies, reaching 9,000 sales at the end of the third week. A disappointing performance for the artist in view of the sales of his previous albums. Despite good promotion and several appearances on television, the record was a real commercial failure.
