5.0 out of 5 stars Perfectly laid back mediterranean rythms, July 26, 2006

By	Najki (ROC) - See all my reviews

This soundtrack is one of the best rap compilations I have come across. The French have an incredible knack for rap, and the makers of the Taxi movie have managed to assemble a perfect companion CD to it. Buy it, enjoy it, you will not be sorry, even if you understand no word of French. If you are tired of the West/East divide, the French spin on rap is quite something different. Also, you can listen to the tunes on Amazon.co.uk.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kick @ss album if you understand and like french rap, January 4, 2005

By	Ice_9 (NC, USA) - See all my reviews

I grew up listening to these guys, and watching the movies "Taxi" 1,2,3. This album defintely brings back good memories of hanging out late at night in the streets of Nancy, France, and listening to the french rap radio "Skyrock". I suggest this album to anyone who loves old school french rap! IAm once again drops the beat, and Akhenaton does an awesome job mixing and weaving the sounds and culture of the streets of Paris France.
as a side note, i disadvise the american re-make of this classic movie, i think it an insult to Luc Bessons work, and all french culture!
