"From the first to the last track, I am swept away by the voices of these bohemian chantueses, the HOT styling of African drum beats, acoutstic guitars, hip-hop, R&B and soul and the eclectic topics of the lyrics into the Afro-French experience of Les Nubians. The music is so MOVING and INFECTIOUS that I sing loudly each song in my mispronounced, uninterpreted, "No French Speaking" rendition and never use language as a barrier on my enjoyment of the CD! I recently had a friend, who is fluent in French, translate the CD's lyrics so I could understand the Les Nubians perspective of life, love, social consciousness, pride and history that is recounted to me sweetly and soulfuly in each song making my Afro-French experience completely enjoyable. It's a must have for all Sade, Soul II Soul, Roots, Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean, Sweetback or Seal fans!!!!!"
De la belle musique qui sort de l'ordinaire.

"This CD is awesome. I'm a big electronica fan and this CD borders on the lines of acid jazz, jazz, and trip-hop. The voices of the duo are smooth and gorgeous and the songs are all so good! I have listened to this CD so many times that it's probably gonna break very soon! This is a great downtempo classic! I can't wait for their next CD!"

"These sisters have come out with the best R&B CD that has come out in a long, long, time. For once, original music from an artist that isnt weak or sampling off old school! This album is over 2 years old and no CD has come close SINCE. I love this whole CD, and I'm still kickin it hard in my car. My only question: When is the next album?GO HEAD LES NUBIANS,YOU ARE DA BOMB."

"I want to let the potential buyer know that this CD is not in English but, I'm willing to bet that you'll sing along anyway.I have listened to this CD so many times that I sing along in the exact words yet I don't speak the language.The rhythym is infectious.They harmonize well.The african rhythym is superb!This CD,the music touches your soul and it made me feel extra proud to be an african-american woman with music running through my soul and in my body.Any and everyone should appreciate such music of the soul."
