Co-founder of IAM, the rapper with multiple aliases (Chill, Sentenza, AKH) known
as Akhenaton is one of the tutelary figures of French hip-hop. His talent as a
calm, moderate orator and his literate rap have made him a media-friendly
spokesman for the genre. Alongside IAM, he has pursued a solo career, beginning
in 1995 with the classic Métèque et Mat and continuing with the brilliant Comme
un Aimant (soundtrack to his 2000 film) and his Black Album (2002). In 2010,
Akhenaton released his autobiography, accompanied by the compilation La Face B.
