IAM is one of the more well-known classic French hip hop groups.  This album is obviously in French but I think these tracks could be appreciated even by people who don’t speak the language.  I speak French pretty well but when they start rapping all crazy fast, I can’t really pick up everything.  All I know is the beats knock and are catchy as hell.  They have gotten the opportunity to collab w/various members of Wu-Tang + Wu-Tang affiliates quite a few times which gives you an idea what their style is all about.  Scope it if you’re lookin for something a little different.
