Most songs on this album were completely different from the original Cavacha/Rumba style and all of them were short. Pepe Kallé’s participation was minimal, you would expect him to have done at least three duets with Bozi when seeing his name on the album cover, but he just backed Bozi. The producer probably used Pepe Kalle's name to sell more copies, knowing that Pepe Kallé was very well known in West Africa and the French West Indies because of his hits Zouké-Zouké, Moyibi, Pon Moun Paka Bougé and Che Chale Carnaval
