Jacqueline Taïeb sings "Un Monde de Femmes" in a music video, a response to James Brown and his famous hit "It’s a Man’s World."

The singer of the timeless 60s hit "7h du matin," Jacqueline Taïeb returns with "Un Monde de Femmes," a response to James Brown's iconic song.

Jacqueline Taïeb imagines a world without men, where calmness and serenity reign, and violence is excluded. The music video is presented as a quiz of portraits, featuring 83 famous and powerful women from all eras, waiting to be named by viewers. Among these portraits, a few unknown faces have slipped in.

After being raised on songs by Aznavour, Montand, Mouloudji, and delightful Tunisian tunes, Jacqueline had a life-changing moment when she first heard Elvis at around eight years old. Rock 'n' roll and the English language became integral parts of her life, sparking a desire to understand her idol's lyrics.

Supported in writing by Anissa Kasbaoui and arranged by Jc. Dequeant, Jacqueline Taïeb delivers this song in response to current events, specifically addressing the violence men perpetrate against women. As a nod and homage to James Brown's masterpiece "It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World," the musician responds with Un Monde de Femmes.

Jacqueline Taïeb may never have filled stadiums or been a subject of tabloid news, but music connoisseurs know the importance of her work. Over her career, she has produced 15 gems that are some of France's best pop creations.

She became a sensation at the first MIDEM in January 1967 with her hit "7 heures du matin," which was also featured in Jean-Luc Godard's film *À bout de souffle*. "7 heures du matin" retains the nostalgic charm of youth before May 1968.
