I can't believe nobody post something about her yet..
She's is what we have best in France regarding rap music; she embodies what hip hop really should be: rebel, sincere, engaged
The best show of the summer; she's quite underground (understand: she's hardly heard on radios or seen on tv), yet, we were 6000 to wait for her..and she came, and this little girl, in her twenties, put fire on us all
Our president said before his election: "we're gonna wash up this scum with karcher", talking about ghetto youth; she made a song about that, saying the biggest scum is the president, and that, during her show, was a big moment: we, huge crowd, fists up, all chanting "we're gonna wash up the Elysee with karcher" (end ending up full of beer, as usua, but hey, energy was here)
this was very strong
and now, making my searches, i found out that her clips are translated in many languages, like spanish, portuguese, turkish, and..english
so i have to put my favorite song here, it's called "la rage du peuple" and it is soon becoming an altermondialist anthem
Artist: Adama Drame
Track: Fourou - (with Le Mariage)

I can't stop playing this song... when it rains, when it snows, when the sun's here, everytime i just fall in love with it.. This song makes me wish my next trip will be West Africa, Mali, senegal, Mauritania..
Each time i hear it i've got this big smile and my legs cant be stopped from dancing
hope you'll enjoy
The percussionist is the great master Adama Dramé, a living legend of djembé
