Larusso

Larusso
Octo Arts EMI

Who hasn’t heard of "One Sommeria a.k.a. Jamies Mamous", please stand up! No takers? I thought so. Who hasn’t gone nauseated over the over-played discoesque bi-lingual French 101? The noontime TV show dance contest made it worse!

But what do you know? Larusso is back to decapitate all the politicians who used her song as election jingles and to give the Philippines another course on French. With the same roller-disco-cum-bell bottoms swing melodies and R&B tripping beats, husky yet sensual pillow voice, but this time, more English phrases, she is ready to bombard every jeepney in Metro Manila with her hard-to-kill self-titled album.But then again, the French chic-ness still hangs as her best weapon of permanence and that makes this album a must-have. But when you see her cut on Vid-Ok, better watch out, mamang tsuper could as well be swinging to "Entre Nous"—the more famous track in the album. But hey, get a taste of chic-city Paris minus the passport stamp—you can’t go wrong
