"Ma meilleure ennemie" (English: 'My Best Enemy') is a song by Belgian singer-songwriter Stromae and French musician Pomme. It was released on 23 November 2024 as part of the soundtrack to the second season of the Netflix animated series Arcane (2024), and later impacted Italian radio on 6 December, through Riot Games and Virgin Music. The song was written by the artists alongside Alexander Seaver, as well as Stromae's brother and long-time collaborator Luc Van Haver.

Background

[edit]

On 23 November 2024, Stromae took to social media to announce his collaboration with Pomme, saying they "crafted a special song" for the final season of the series Arcane, which was released on Netflix the same day.[1] The song marks the return of the singer following a two-year break from music and the cancellation of his Multitude Tour in early 2023 due to health reasons.[2]

"Ma meilleure ennemie" plays during the seventh episode of Arcane's second season and accompanies a key scene that sees the characters Ekko and Powder dancing.

Commercial performance

Within its first 24 hours of availability, the song broke the record for the most streamed French-language song on Spotify on its first day.[3]

According to the website Mediatraffic, the song debuted at number 21 on Worldwide chart with 145,000 units during its first week.[4] Then, it rose to number 9 with 197,000 units.[5]
