What's this!? This ain't Uffie! Unfortunately for everyone's favorite electro bad girl, there's a new "hot chick in charge" (my puns are terrible yes). Well, alright, she's not as hot as Uffie but "je veux [sa] voir dans un film de pornagraphique", as she says in in "Je Veux Te Voir". Actually she kind of reminds me of Natalie Portman... Anyways, what to expect from this album is some good french electro music. I don't know whether or not she produces all these tracks but if she does she's on fire. Check out the production on "A Cause Des Garçons" or the r&b meets electro sweetness of "Tu Es Beau". Other good tracks include "Ce Jeu", "Tristesse/joie", and the very cool breakbeat "Jogging". If only I remembered more French from my classes. Actually the song below is extremely dirty in french. Makes me wonder if this girls extremely horny to be surrounded by bright colors based upon what she ways.
