I found it at my local tower "Je Me Souviens" I have to say I love the
album I've been listening to both it and Wyclef Jean's "Carnival". For
more on the web--including some RA--check out

The album has a very laid back and mello vibe, but, still despite my measly
frech has a very intense and forcefull feel of the lyrics, Menelik gives a
sense of purposefulness and emotion. And, the beats are great I especially
like the second track--the title track "Je Me Souviens" with Pachbels
Cannon as the break!
