Facing Jordan de Luxe, he notably stated: “&Agrave at one point, I find it pathetic”. For him, Renaud should simply stop. 

The producer did not hesitate to give a very blunt opinion. “I find that artists who have had such magnitude, such renown with the public, who perform while no longer being what they really were, I think it's better to stop”, he declared before stating: “I, personally, would have stopped”.
