Le chemin is the third studio album by the French singer Emmanuel Moire. As his contract with the Warner Music record label had expired in May 2011 after the release of his first album, (Là) Où je pars in 2007, and the follow-up, L'Équilibre in 2009, Moire said in 2012 that he was searching for a new record label for materials he was preparing for a third album. At Mercury, an affiliate of Universal Music Group, he met Dominique Gau, who had just joined Mercury as artistic director from Warner, Olivier Nuss and Éric Lelièvre. He announced on 14 January 2013 that Mercury would release his forthcoming album.

The album was released on 29 April 2013 containing 15 tracks. All the songs were co-written by Yann Guillon and by Moire, and all were produced by Moire and Ninjamix.

"Beau malheur" was pre-released as the first single from the album in February 2013.
