TTC -- a trio formed by Tido Berman, Teki Latex, and Cuizinier -- is one of the few acts in the hip-hop underground of France, a country with deep ties to rap of the mainstream variety. The group self-released their first single, Game Over '99, in 1999, but when the record was dropped off at the office of Big Dada Records, label head Will Ashon signed them to a contract. The singles Leguman and Elementaire preceded a lengthy world tour and the release of their first full-length, 2002's Ceci N'Est Pas un Disque. The remix EP De Pauvre Riches followed later that year. ~ John Bush, Rovi
