The album was released in 1981 by Axel Mouna, a singer who played soccer for Douala Sports Union, the football team of Douala, the largest city in Cameroon, in the 70s and was a musician in the late 70s and 80s. The album includes B1 "Juventos," which became a big hit when sung in memory of the legendary Juventus football club players and coach who died in a car accident in the 1970s, and B3, a funky Afrobeat-influenced macossa. The album features six tracks of macossa with excellent arrangements by Toto Guillaume, precise and speedy rhythms on drums and percussion, and sparkling sounds of clavinet and synthesizer.
