The album contains Taha’s song "Voilà Voilà", which was released as a dance-oriented single that was a hit with English DJs; and his version of Ya Rayah, the classic chaâbi song composed by Dahmane El Harrachi (real name Abderrahmane Amrani). Taha returns to these songs in later albums.
A video clip was later made for "Ya Rayah"[3] Taha and Bruno Maman co-wrote "Indie (1+1+1)", which was released as a single in 1995 and for which a video clip was also made.[4]
