Betty's name
Details: Amazon.ca The one we now call Kemar is none other than the singer of No One Is Innocent, alias Kmar Gulbenkian. Three years after the scuttling of his group, flagship of French fusion sound, he resurfaces with a solo album concocted in the company of some big names in French song, in the front ranks of which Dominique Dalcan (Snooze) and the Valentins... Suffice to say that the leader of No One will surprise more than one among his aficionados of the first hour. Here, the violence is contained and rampant. Solidly anchored in his time by a production that oscillates between foggy downtempo, very urban textures or more classic instrumentations, Kemar gives free rein to his thwarted thoughts and recounts his dark romances evoked via enigmatic phrasing. A voice that is reminiscent of Gainsbourg for its "spoken-sung" mix. In this game of shadows and lights, where the first often take precedence over the seconds, Kemar imposes a raw personality who knows how to be as gentle and seductive. --Fabrice Privé
