Owing to the great success of the album, the album was rereleased as a Deluxe Edition on 17 November 2014 with an additional CD of 8 tracks. To differentiate, the reedition was titled Le Monde plus gros que mes yeux (meaning the World Greater than my Eyes).
In 2015, Black M released a live concert titled Les yeux plus gros que l'Olympia as an album registration and as DVD in which he interpreted almost all the tracks from Les yeux plus gros que le monde and follow-up Le monde plus gros que mes yeux with main invitees The Shin Sekaï, Sexion d'Assaut and with collaborations with Doomams, Abou de Being, Dry and Dr Berize.
In 2013, Gims released his album Subliminal which was a public success. Previously the two members of the group Sexion d'Assaut, toured the album L'Apogée (2012). During the tour, Black M writes the lyrics for album.[1]
His song "Solitaire" alludes to his debut with the group Sexion d'Assaut. He tells about his beginnings. The lyrics make it clear that he regrets those moments.
The song I keep smiling should have been called "The Clown" but Black M changed the title because his friend Soprano had released a single called "Clown".
For the promotion of the album, Black M unveils as Maître Gims, a web series called Les pieds plus gros que ... where there are titles that are not in the album:
The cover is a tribute to that of the Dangerous (1991) album by Michael Jackson. However, a good number of elements are changed for questions of rights.[2]
