VEENCE HANAO - SAINT-IDESBALD


Saint-Idesbald is a little village on the Belgian sea-side. Veence Hanao took a 4 month leave from his Brussels life, and went to Saint-Idesbald, a place he visited often with his parents when he was a kid.
The result can be heard on "Saint-Idesbald". It's a rap album, and it's in French, so don't tell me I didn't warn you, but it's quite good.
The booklet with the lyrics is essential (at least, for me).
And the big suprise, although I gave it away last week, is that he uses Zappa samples in two tracks.

  • 'sexentrex' - samples 'what's the ugliest part of your body'
  • 'force et honneur' - samples 'harry you're a beast'
