Qui Seme Le Vent Recolte Le Tempoby: MC Solaar February 09, 1993 Best Selling > Music > International |

I've been a fan of MC Solaar's for quite some time now, and have had this album a good 10 years, but I came back to it recently and felt I had to review it. The skills shown on this album make you wonder where everything changed for Claude MC, his fast pace, humour, intellect and just all good sound made him a target for hardcore rappers, as they felt his sound was too soft. Well maybe they should have slipped on "Quartier Nord" and checked his skills there?
There's nothing on here that's bad, OK, I'm not keen on Ragga Jam with Raggasonic - but it's still worth a listen. Caroline ("I am the ace of clubs that stings your heart") has that beauty and some lovely play on words like "maso elle est partie avec un vieux macho qu'elle ... Read More: >>More Details |

Mach 6by: MC Solaar May 03, 2004 Best Selling > Music > International |

Not so full on with insistent driving beats as one might come to expect of more typical hip hop and some tracks are not really danceable to be honest (not that that is necessarily a pre-requisite of the genre). Strikes me as thinking person's hip hop (even if I don't understand more than a couple of the words!). Often quiet, generally restrained and very acoustic in places. Extremely well crafted and artful

This album is an exceptional album, in which i love it!!!, i love all of MC Solaar's music, as i have all all his albums, and i understand it when he speaks French, as that is my second language. I believe that people don't like his music because they simply don't understand the words that he speaks, and if they did understand they'd appreciate, admire and adore his music like I myself do.This in my opinion is the best one of his albums, with the emphatic "La Vie n'est qu'un moment", being my favourite song of all. There is not a bad song at all on this album!, all his songs in my opinion are top quality listening and something that one should really enjoy! That is all i have to argue/say on the matter.

Carpal Tunnel Syndromeby: Kid Koala February 21, 2000 Best Selling > Music > International |

Its always the same - an album gets hyped to a stage that no artist can realistically match. Yeah, there may be comparisons with Shadow and RJD2 but those boys provided quality product over numerous tracks. At a little over half-an-hour long, with numerous vocal samples, you can't help but feel a little ripped-off when buying this 'album'. Its great in parts but a few more tracks, offering a truer showcase of Kid's skills, would've been a better reflection of this artist's abilities.

Paradisiaqueby: MC Solaar June 30, 1997 Best Selling > Music > International |

As with his earlier releases, 'Qui Seme Le Vent Recolte Le Tempo' and 'Prose Combat', and his later self-titled CD, on 'Paradisiaque' MC Solaar combines hip-hop and jazz grooves to create stylish, chic and ultra-smooth tracks par excellence. 'Gangster Moderne' and 'Le Temps Changent' are the highlights of what is an all-round solid album. Solaar would doubtlessly be a household name in the UK and America if he rapped in English, but as it is he is a relatively well-kept secret outside the Francophone world. Buy this - and his other albums - and be impressed!

Prose Combatby: MC Solaar March 17, 1994 Best Selling > Music > International |

Probably one of the best hip-hop albums of all time, up there with Step in the Arena as an exponent of funky, lyrical jazz-tinged hip-hop. Jimmy Jay's lush, sun-drenched soundtrack is an amalgam of warm horns, jazz guitar, funk bass and some serious bottom-wiggling, foot-tapping breakbeats. MC Solaar never equalled the lyrical density and flows like there's no tomorrow. He goes from the bitter-sweet Séquelles via the optimistic, streetwise strut of A La Clair Fontaine and the ghetto realism of Nouveau Western (co-credited to Serge Gainsbourg, with the main sample being lifted from the latter's Bonnie and Clyde) to the sheer lyrical joy of the freestyling LNMIACCd'HTCK72KPDP. An absolute must!

Le Tour de la Questionby: MC Solaar May 11, 1999 Best Selling > Music > International |

When I saw this album in the stores I purchased it straight away. Uponhearing it for the first time I was very dissapointed. My dissapointmentstemed from the fact that it was not a studio album but an album made upfrom tracks that he had performed at a concert. But after listening a fewmore times the album began to grow on me. There are some classics on itsuch as CAROLINE and QUAND LE SOLEIL DEVIENT FROID but the stand out trackon the album is the climatic and energetic LES TEMPS CHANGENT. All in allthis is quite a decent album and I recommend it to all mc solaar fans
