La Fonky Family (often shortened to La Fonky, or La FF) are a French hip
hop group from Marseille. They are composed of four rappers, Le Rat
Luciano, Menzo, Don Choa and Sat, the producer Pone, DJ Djel, the dancer
Blaze, the singer Karima, Flex (fetus) Nandell, and manager Fafa.
Fonky Family made their first appearance on the French hip hop scene in
1994, after IAM had paved the way for new hip hop artists originating from
Marseille. In 1995, they appeared in the song titled Les Bad Boys de
Marseille on Métèque et mat, the first solo album by IAM's Akhenaton.
Their first album, Si Dieu veut, came out in 1997 and soon received a gold
album. After the release of the album, Karima left the group.
In 1998, the group were invited to collaborate with Akhenaton on the
soundtrack of Luc Besson's film Taxi. The film became a huge success and
its soundtrack topped the French charts. After
