It was released on April 16, 2007 and was supported by the two hit singles "Double Je" and "Jacques a dit", which were top five hits in France and Belgium. The album was mainly composed by the French artists Zazie and Philippe Katerine.

It was the third more successful album of 2007 in France, and a huge success in francophone countries, with about 1 million copies sold.
