MC  Solaar - Inch'allah

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmMd7qbpguk&feature=PlayList&p=A6B3A8ACEAFE309C&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=8

In my high school French classes, the cultural lessons always mentioned MC Solaar.  Everyone always laughed when we imagined what rapping in French would sound like. 

The beat on this song is kind of crazy.  I like it.

Yes, he has a good flow and some very decent beats, unlike a significant part of French rap for the beat, which it seems to me focus first on the lyrics than on the music, seems to me that it could be because of the heritage of the French songs/French realist songs that they would have unconsciously bought, when US rap music comes from an heritage which gives more place to the music than in France, well, just personal interpretations.

Of course, French flow in rap is not always as good Mc Solaar, you may have seen it on the song I posted just after, Thé à la menthe, but personally I find there are very good stuffs, well, from a French point of view...

Is that the one about a father having sex with his daughter?

Sorry, I couldn't resist. 

Haha, don't know, which French care about the lyrics of English songs?? (if it's about lyrics, don't know much more about this song...)

It has nothing to do with the song.  It has to do with the band.  It's been recently alleged that one of the members had a sexual relationship with his biological daughter some years ago.

Now, here's a French song about incest:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-O5MZfsolg

Yup, not the best from Gainsbourg, by far, the girl singing is his daughter. Now I'll give you an other French one about incest, very famous in France, very beautiful, and people use not to know about the fact it is about incest, about the one that the woman who sang lived in her childhood, though, this last years, more people are aware about it, I have been recently too:

Rammstein - Pussy
The actual #1 in Germany
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bNURXXkps8&feature=PlayList&p=D536AF8B84F54754&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=25

Amusing to find the big German flag behind them, I thought only Americans were able of that. Are they part of those who try to "rehabilitate" the flag?

My favorite of Rammstein:

Mutter

Two others that I like:

Sonne

And of course:

DU...DU HAST...DU HAST MICH........

Du Hast

First time I see the clips, it f**k it up a bit I find, I prefer without.

[Bunwahaha [still dunno why, but well, so be it]]

Since the Soccer World Cup 2006 are the Germans a little bit relaxed with the flag.

Yes, that's the way the French media reported it, and btw, shade that the Italians won, a France-Germany final would have been great especially with the team you had at the time.

Regliss Mets - De L'huile

Haha. It is: Regliss - Mets de l'huile (put some oil)

It was an enough big hit in France at the time.

The Youtube page on which it was made me click on this:

After MC Solaar which is pretty soft core in the French Hip Hop, here is some ruuuuude one. There is not the slightest rude word, just metaphors, but, pretty explicit ones. It has been an enough big hit at the time in France, 12 years ago. NTM, who no more play together, remains the biggest French rap band, that's not the best they did, but, here is:

Kraftwerk - Robter a classic song

Euh...

Don't like Kraftwerk?  Weird.

Euh... (seems i can't go beyond this reaction).

On the other hand I wouldn't be surprised at all if you said you liked it.

Chant des partisans.

Good shot indeed. And as all the good things it has to remain exceptional.
