La Face B

by Akhenaton

Pour la première fois, le rappeur du groupe IAM Akhenaton, né Philippe Fragione, se raconte.Ce petit-fils d'immigrés napolitains est à la fois homme de passions, avec ses zones d'ombre et ses années noires, homme de foi érudit, et père de famille épanouie. Son histoire, c'est le Marseille interlope des années 1980, c'est le New York de tous les possibles, c'est IAM et la consécration du rap français, c'est enfin et surtout la défense d'un hip-hop engagé.

Akhenaton is my favorite rapper of all time. I used to listen to his cassettes back in the 90s, when I was a kid growing up in France. It was such wonderful music, and I listened to it with one of my best friends. He makes incredible music, and he's part of the French Rap group IAM, which makes even more great music. Make sure you go through his entire catalog of music, it's really good. This biography told me a lot about the man I look up to, whom I view as a hero. I love America very much, but whenever I miss France, I listen to my albums of Akhenaton & IAM. Please listen to his lyrics, they are incredible and very powerful. He talks about very important things. He's an inspiration.

L'homme qui y est décrit semble être tout aussi intéressant que ses musiques.
