Review

This is how a block party is supposed to be. Great acts, a good vibe, and people joining for the love of HIP-HOP!
Common's performance at Only The Brave Block Party in Paris was short but INTENSE! All ingredients were there and he really did the job to get the crowd pumped: from crowd surfing to flirting with girls on stage, Common turned it out, simply put.

Artist

Hocus Pocus

French hip-hop posse Hocus Pocus, actually 20syl's brainchild, were formed in 1995, and gradually gained attention in the late '90s. The band, however, reached significant commercial and critical success in 2006 with the 2005 LP 73 Touches re-release, the "Hip Hop?" single (featuring the Procussions) having hooked many listeners who were curious about its blend of French, English, and acoustic/electronic elements. Though quite far removed from legendary bands evolving in that same category (like the Roots), Hocus Pocus' more radio-friendly recipe happened to be very effective. The band came back in 2007 with a mixed live/studio LP, Place 54, featuring more international collaborations and another hit single, "Vocab!" more>>>
