I was just mindin' my own business, listening to one of the iTunes radio stations and a very interesting song just came on. I'm not sure where I've been (I didn't think that I was under a rock), but I just heard "Je réalise" by French rap artist Sinik featuring James Blunt!
What?!
I had no idea that James Blunt was featured in a rap song - and actually, I was just looking up in Google to see who the French rapper was. Luckily his name came up on the iTunes 'titles bar'. I wasn't familiar with Sinik, but something tells me more people will be hearing from him in the future. He seems pretty damn cool.
Having James Blunt involved with his song will certainly help to reach a wider audience - but the fans for each artist are most likely from each end of the music scale. Reminds me of "Stan" by Eminem featuring Dido. That seemed to work, though.
Anyway, if you haven't heard it, you can make your own mind up!
