Reviews
"...A MA ZONE is an excursion into high energy West African hip hop....sung in various languages, including French....Good fun.", "...There's plenty of world here....And plenty of beat....a strong central voice...anchoring a rare album that's both global and personal." - Rating: B+, "...On the brilliant A MA ZONE, this renowned female sextant....continues to take its musical approach even further into the urban jungle....This true must-hear has finally brought the beat box into the brave new world.", "...Seamlessly mixes European and African flavors with American R&B to create a jambalaya of sound....With their 1st foray into rap territory, A MA ZONE...is refreshing enough fro hip-hop heads to enjoy.", Ranked #15 in Cmj's "Top 30 Editorial Picks for 1999.", 7 out of 10 - "...soaks their a cappella roots in a playful ethno-soul masterminded by lead diva Marie Dauline....suggests a pan-rap paradise..."
