Saian Supa Crew

Sa?an Supa Crew is a French rap collective composed of three groups: Explicit Samoura?, OFX and Simple Spirit. The name 'Sa?an Supa' is a reference to the Super Saiyan from the manga and anime Dragon Ball Z/GT.
Sa?an Supa Crew produces a very musical style of rap with hints of chanting, reggae and dancehall. Beat boxing also is an integral part of their music, as well as classic disco; for example, Ring My Bell was partially revisited on their album KLR.
Their primary themes extend from drug problems ("Que dit-on?") to racism ("La preuve par 3"), including also relationships ("A demi-nue"), suicide ("La dernière séance") and the justification of violence by religion ("Au nom de quoi"). Humor and seriousness are both at home in their lyrics.
Their second album, X-raisons, was awarded a Victoire de la musique in 2002 for Best Rap/Groove Album.
Most of the groups of the collective have solo albums out as well. OFX was the first to debut, with their album Roots in February 2004, followed shortly by Explicit Samoura? in January 2005 and later by Sir Samu?l Vizé pli ?, whose solo album was released in April 2005.
The latest album from the Sa?an Supa Crew, Hold Up, was released Halloween 2005. On this album, the group demonstrated their breadth with three featured artists: German singer Patrice on "96 degreez," the singer Camille on "Si j'avais su," and Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas on "La patte."
