(5 out of 5 stars)

"For 5 years,I hear these songs every weeks!L'ECOLE DU MICRO D'ARGENT is actually the only french rap record who is at the same level that West coast records and even better.The proof of it is that Kool G RAP stole an instrumental and isn't the only one.Lyrics are subtle and beats explosive!
Déjà plus d'un million d'albums vendus, la sortie du prochain cd devrait être un évènement national!
If you like this record, buy "CHRONIQUES DE MARS"!!!
Vive le rap marseillais par contre L'OM peut se faire enculer!"

"I get upset when I see every other cd get a golden rating. It seems like any crap album out there could get 5 stars on Amazon, just because someone hears it once and concludes its virtuosity. But in my somewhat humble opinion, the highest praise for "L'Ecole" is 100% due. This album is up there with the best in hop-hop. I haven't heard anything better with the possible exceptions of Ready to Die or Paul's Boutique. Granted, my French isn't good enough to understand everything les mecs de la planette Mars are talking about or appreciate the overall lyrical quality -- but the flow (for lack of a better word) is just amazing. "Nes Sous La Meme Etoile" (Born Under the Same Star) is unbelieveable and several other of the first 7 tracks are almost as magical. I think any hip-hop fan would do him or herself a favor by picking this disc up (I haven't heard the new disc so I can't compare)."
