The group is comprised of rappers Joey Starr (born Didier Morville) and Kool Shen (born Bruno Lopès). Their seven albums were released by Sony Music Entertainment. The group takes its name from the French slang “NTM”, an abbreviation for “Nique Ta Mère” (“Nique” being an aphesis of the verb “forniquer”, “to fornicate”) meaning “Fuck Your Mother” (which means “Fuck You” basically). NTM is known for their hostility towards the police, their violent lyrics, and their legal battles with the French authorities. Their musical style is predominately hardcore rap, although later albums include funk, soul and reggae influences. The group is outspokenly critical of racism and class inequality in French society, and while their earlier music is violent, some of their later work, such as “Pose ton Gun” (“Put down your Gun”), is explicitly anti-violent. In 1998, the group released its last album of original material under the NTM moniker, as both Joey Starr and Kool Shen started their own labels, promoting new bands and branching out in other fields such as the cloth...
