Phylicia Allen was better known as one of the Cosbys in the 1980s. At the time of this record, she was married to Victor Willis of the Village People. Consequently, this LP is put together by the Morali/Belolo/Willis team, and sounds like a Village People LP.

The LP tells the story of "the first black international star, Miss Josephine Baker". Most of the songs are original, but "J'ai deux amors" was Josephine's greatest hit.
