Here they are, chased out by the cold of their obscure cave where they would frenetically practice on rotten mics not to rap like Le Klub des Loosers or TTC. The new Bordeaux hip hop challenger band, with their strong humour and lyrics have arrived, and have the right number for you to dial, ladies & gentleman : 0800 ! 0800, toll free call from anywhere and about to cause serious rappers breakdowns all around the world because of its skilful remoulding of rap beliefs and rules.
The Bordeaux-based trio sure know how to blur codes, beyond the usual frontiers of the genre. Fun, percussive, subtle and straightforward at the same time, the three piece 0800 seems to have found with « Rock’n’Roll » (clue or confession?) the perfect combination for a rap record : finely crafted lyrics, catchy refrains, breathtaking samples and a rarely seen cohesion of the whole. From S.O.S Suicide MC’s to Tout Pour la Musique, not forgetting the huge Efficace or Tant Pis, the Bordeaux trio contributes with these 15 tracks to open a a cliché-stricken genre... A first explosive album that will hit you like you didn't expect. Rock’n’roll.
