About Faf Larage
Born Raphaƫl Mussard in Marseilles, France in 1971, Faf Larage was a commercially successful French rapper, who reached French Billboard's highest ranking thanks to his interpretation of TV show Prison Break's opening titles. Brother of Marseilles rap legendary posse AIM's Shurik'n, with whom he collaborated a couple of times (including on a 1997 hit single "La Garde Meurt Mais Ne Se Rend Pas," and a full album), he became a Marseilles-styled French rap figure in his own right with the release of a couple of albums, from 1999's C'est Ma Cause to 2007's Rap Stories. ~ Olivier Duboc, All Music Guide

Girls Sugababes |
| By roping in credible producers such as Richard X and peppering their songs with up to the minute electro touches, Sugababes have managed to create songs that appealed as much to the cynical music press as it did to teenage girls. Throw in a revolving door line up and a media fascination with the bands perceived moodiness and you have a recipe for the most successful girl band of the new millennium. However on "Girls", a cover of Ernie K-Does early R&B classic "Here Comes The Girls", The "Babes" lack any of the inventiveness that made singles such as "Freak Like Me" and "Push The Button" so enjoyable. As countless artists have proved over the years, there's nothing wrong with uncovering a hidden gem and putting your own spin on things; Soft Cell's "Tainted Love" springs to mind as a good example. However, you can't help thinking that The Sugababes' producers have hardly been "diggin' in the crates" to uncover "Here Come The Girls" since it has been used extensively by Boots over the last couple of years to sell beauty products. Throw in a few predictable Mark Ronson style horn riffs and you have a sub Atomic Kitten mess that tarnishes a lot of the bands efforts to be taken seriously. | |
