	RFI Musique - - Akhenaton
		Indisputably the leader of IAM, Akhenaton quickly became a spokesman of choice for the media due to his charisma, his ease to express himself, his astute sense to know when and how to criticize, but also his sincerity and his frankness.
		Akhenaton and Kheops wrote the soundtrack for "Taxi", one of the biggest French cinema hits in 1998, by Robert Pires whose producer was none other than Luc Besson.
		Akhenaton accompanied his album with a hard-hitting message, including a mini-booklet insisting on the importance of voting in the next elections which instructed fans on how to get their names on the electoral register.

		Akhenaton, one of the masterminds behind the hugely successful Marseilles rap group IAM, is back in the French music news.
		And, ironically enough, Akhenaton's new approach is based on turning back to the old rap classics of the 80s.
		Akhenaton came up with the idea for his original project last year after putting the finishing touches to his film Comme un aimant.

	IAM STYLE - History (via CobWeb/3.1 planet03.csc.ncsu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Akhenaton, rapper and chief spokesperson for Marseille rap group IAM, was born Philippe Fragione, son of immigrants from the region of Calabria in South Italy, who settled in Marseille.
		According to Akhenaton, the name IAM (standing for Imperial Asiatic Men) was chosen after he read Senegalese writer Cheikh Anta Diop, one of Afrocentrism's leading theorists, who spurred a pre-existing interest in the Asiatic Middle East as the origin of the monotheistic religions and in Egypt as the (Black) cradle of civilization.
		Akhenaton stresses that the Islam he espouses is tolerant and characterized by a mystical beauty, and that he is neither a "fundamentalist" (intégriste) nor a provocateur (Péguillan 1995).

		Rappers who fully understand their job are prepared to overcome scepticism from the moment they sit down to write lyrics.
		Few rappers seem to be able, let alone willing, to look further than the tip of their nose, especially US-American rappers and those within their realm of influence.
		Akhenaton and Shurik'n were keen to write from different perspectives, to think about the world in general, not just their own place in it.

	The Magnet: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more \|\|\| Music.com
		Akhenaton, from the French rap group IAM, and soundscore composer Bruno Coulais teamed to create some soul strong, tragically tinged, original music using French rappers and top American soul and RandB artists such as "Issac Hayes," Millie Jackson, The Dells, Marlena Shaw, and Dennis Edwards, lead singer for many years of The Temptations.
		Akhenaton's French rap labelmates Shurik'n, Bruizza, and Tony and Paco represent the Marseilles scene.
		Bruizza's deep voice on the tongue twisting "S" (all words begin with S) is an amazing vocal accomplishment, but with no printed lyrics nor translations (a significant flaw, since the music is in two languages) the meaning lisps away.

		Although MC Solaar was the only French rapper of note during the '90s, several hip-hop production crews made inroads in the quintessentially American style, including DJ Cam, the Mighty Bop, and La Funk Mob.
		The latter team was formed by Boom Bass and Philippe Zdar in the early '90s, though Boom Bass had worked with Solaar on his first two solo albums, weaving samples from Black Sheep to Serge Gainsbourg.
		The best and most popular French rapper, MC Solaar found success in America among fans of acid jazz and jazz-rap (if not the larger hip-hop community) after guesting on Guru's acclaimed Jazzmatazz project.

		Akhenaton spent more than two years in New York, on and off.

		Not only is the production (from fellow band members Imhotep, Akhenaton, and Shurik'n) spectacular, but the way freeman and k rhyme le roi flow to the beats is just great.

	TRANSGLOBAL (ISLAMIC/HIP-HOP) UNDERGROUND:
		Akhenaton asserts that IAM is "anti-political," in the sense of wanting nothing to do with the state: "On ne me traitera pas de soumis à ce putain d'êtat" (They won't call me submissive to this whore of a state, from "Non soumis à l'état,"....
		Cultural-political interventions like those of Aki Nawaz, Natacha Atlas and Akhenaton are likely to continue to be of critical importance for young Muslims, as part of larger efforts to create new "spaces" for multi-faceted Islamic identities and as weapons in the battles against racist violence and Islamophobic discrimination.
		Akhenaton's attempts to uncover and expose the Arab roots of southern Italy recall similar efforts of Spanish novelist Juan Goytisolo and the music group El Lebrijano, who seek to bring to light Spain's Arab (Andalusian) origins.

		FF first started off on the "Bad Boys de Marseille" tracks of Akhenaton's "Meteque et Mat", and have picked up right where they left off there.
		My favorite track on this album is 'Manifiste' with Akhenaton, but to be honest, just about every single track on this album is a bomb.
		This cd is ok, but not Akhenaton's best work, his best solo work is "Meteque et Mat".

		During an appearance on Le Vrai Journal, Marseille rapper Akhenaton stated that all terrorism is a response to 20 years of U.S. foreign policy and that the hostage takers in Moscow were justified in their acts because they have seen much suffering during their long political struggle.
		He must be one of those moderate Islamists who are for war as long as only one side is fighting it.
		Akhenaton fait partie des ces islamistes modérés qui sont pro-guerre à partir du moment où il y a un seul côté qui ait le droit de se battre.

	Baghdad on the Seine - Editorials/Op-Ed - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The Paris government has alternately patronized and isolated the Muslim have-nots in their midst, preferring to keep than in the decaying suburbs with welfare benefits without hope for rising into the middle class.
		Instead of "liberte, egalite, fraternite," gangs of Muslims groove to rapper Akhenaton's call for "only gangsta as identification." When the French declined to join the United States and Britain to liberate Iraq, it was perceived as weakness by young Muslims, no matter how much they detest the liberation.
		The French offer the Muslims a faux secularism by banning headscarves for Islamic schoolgirls, but such forced taboos can't compare with the ideological correctness of their imams, many of whom cultivate followers in French prisons.

		It’s not only that [the rioters] use the same hand gestures as American rappers, wear the same clothes and necklaces, play the same video games, and sit with the same sorts of car stereos at full blast.
		It’s that they seem to have adopted the same poses of exaggerated manhood, the same attitudes about women, money and the police.
		It’s not surprising that France, the nation that enshrines conversational grandiloquence as a civic virtue right up there with fraternité, would take to the most blabbermouthed genre in music history.
