A MASTERFUL AND COMMUNICATIVE WORK!

"Marseille is a gold mine! IAM's rhymes are super-intelligent, thought provoking, and addictive. The flow is unrivaled, with more of a rough edge than Solaar. The beats are infused with dopeness, and lyrical pauses will make you hold your breath. No hip hop fan could possibly regret purchasing this album. It satisfies many hungers!"
Genial!

"I've received this Cd from a cousin in Switzerland and I couldn't help but voice my opinion on this album. This is one of the greatest rap album I've ever listened to. IAM, MC Solaar and NTM are the best representatives of French Rap an this album of IAM will convince you why! They are far in front of the american rappers whose lyrics are rather poor and draw a picture of "life sucks" attitude; Opposingly, IAM entertain you with texts such as "Je danse le mia" and "L'attentat2" and they also rap on meaningful subjects like in "J'aurais pu croire", "Le sachet blanc", "L'ombre est lumiere" betweeen others. I highly recommend this album to everyone who wnats to listen to French Rap."
Ca va plus ou moins..

"This is a decent example of French rap, but certainly not the best. It lies somewhere in between Solaar for his pure, fun pop lyrics and NTM's hard core scene. It lacks a bit of character. Je suis plutot Parisien que Marseillais, donc c'est peut-etre ca (NTM over IAM)? There are a couple of decent songs- Une Femme Seule has good lyrics and comes straight from the haert. Je Danse Le Mia is a terribly tacky song that is popular among the FunRadio and Skyrock crowd. I saw a funny incident on french tv- IAM performed at an award show and after finishing said" Attention- L'OM va mettre le feu ce soir". The crowd got pumped up and cheered wildly. Pascal Obispo performed shortly after and said "Moi, je suis bordelais et donc allez les girondins". His soft quiet voice did not quite have the same effect and people clapped politely.By the way, OM est dans la merde cette saison..."
