Java is a French rap group, formed in 2000 as a cooperation between Erwan Séguillon (R.wan) and François-Xavier Bossard (Fixi). Other members include Jérôme Boivin and Alexis Bossard. The band is famous for its lyrics that contain a lot of puns, and for its musette musical style, using accordions. In 2008, the collective expanded with the inclusion of producer and multi-instrumentalist K-Mille.

Career

In its formative year, the band released Hawaï, its debut album with the single "Pépettes" with immediate success and a live album Java Sur Seine the following year. They recorded their album Safari Croisière in Brazil in 2003, that included the single "Samba do Jerusalem". After a cool-off period where various members made solo recording, they came together for a third album released on 27 April 2009, right after a tour in a long tour that included Australia. On 7 September 2010, the band announced that they were going on a hiatus for an undetermined period.
