This  Hip-Hop group consisting of 5 members, Akhenaton, Shurik’n, Khéops, Imhotep, and Kephren, and incorporates themes that include the sounds of Ancient Egypt, Africa, China, Japan, India and American music. IAM’s big break came after the release of the 1997 album, L’école du micro d’argent, which eventually sold 1.5 million copies worldwide. Through IAM’s European performances, the band helped spread the popularity of French Hip-Hop infused with African rhythms mixing both rage and intelligence, and constantly discovering new dimensions for the pleasure of listeners’ ears and minds.
