The lineup includes muscians Matthieu Lelièvre (on fender rhodes) Hevré Gogard (on bass), and Antoine Saint-Jean (on drums) with Dj Greem and 20syl (MC), both members of C2C, the DJ crew, 2003-to-2006 DMC World DJ Team Championships winner.

I've never heard these guys before, and i found them through the kero one radio, but i dig this. I'm slightly accustomed to non-english hip hop, most of what I listen to being japanese. But this is equally awesome. The malade 2006 track is definately a head nodder. thumbs up
