"Top of the world" - "[Massi's] finest set since her debut 18 years ago. Sung in Arabic and French, the ten songs fuse North African styles and chanson into a beguiling sound, full of yearning melodies sung in a cool and compelling voice. From the mellifluous Arabic pop of 'Yadra' to the gorgeous Gallic balladry of 'Pays Natal', Massi's voice has surely never sounded more exquisite, while her songwriting tackles such heavyweight subjects as forced marriage ('Je Veux Apprendre') and political corruption in her homeland ('Fi Bali')".
