Further establishing his credentials as one of Europe's most well-respected urban artists, former
Lunatic MC Booba's sixth studio album, named after the hip-hop duo he formed with Ali, boasts an impressive, star-studded array of guest artists. Recorded in his adopted hometown of Miami, the French-Senegalese rapper's follow-up to 0.9 includes collaborations with Diddy ("Caesar Palace"),
Akon (the title track), and
T-Pain ("Reel"), alongside songs featuring lesser-known home-grown acts like
Dosseh ("45 Scientific") and 92i ("Si Tu Savais"). ~ Jon O'Brien
