Damso's first album was a tidal wave in the Francophone rap game. On top of his fine-tuned rapological technique and mega-hardcore punchlines - the dirtiest motherfucker out there -, the beats did the most impact. Filled with weird, minor key melodic lines, its unicity comes from its laboratory aspect: basically, no Francophone rap album had beats like this one, and no album has had beats like that since then. He will refine his art in his sophomore album Ipseite, but in terms of impact, this one is important, especially in Belgium's representation of Francophone rap. Oh, and he samples Agnes Obel in "Exutoire".
