Driving to Amsterdam is an institution for us frenchies who enjoy tulips. This track is from rapper Oxmo Puccino's latest album "l'arme de paix" and features Olivia Ruiz, failed pop idol turned respectable quality pop singer with a strong French attitude. The encounter of these two carachters paints a great portrait of French youth and its expectations, losely based on Jacques Brel's legendary "dans le port d'Amsterdam". We learn that tough ghetto boys and romantic girls from the south enjoy the same pleasures in Amsterdam. What really makes the track is the shock between two very distinctive voices.
Enjoy,
Charly (PS: whoever chose this illustration for the song is a fool)
