There is a project that consists of several different well known artists that is based in France, known as the Africanism All Stars, the All Stars work with different african based artists and acts. This project was launched in France in 2001 and has since then become more popular among many different kinds of people. Some of the most well known artists involved include Tony Allen, Jeff Kellner, Osibisa, and Tom and Joyce!

In 2005 the project was brought to the United States by Tommy Boy Records where they released the first single Summer Moon. Several other singles besides Summer Moon reached number one on the dance hit list as well. Bob Sinclair is the man behind the hit album Africanism III which is the same album Summer Moon is on. Bob Sinclair is a really popular french producer who has great passion for African music.

On the sixteen track, seventy-seven minute non stop dance mix album, Africanism III, Bob Sinclair decided to bring some of the top African musicians and artists as well as French DJs into the mix. This concluded the album with a really hip rhythmic sound which has resulted in the album becoming one of the most popular Africanism "trilogies" yet. Bob Sinclair notes that even though this album is really different from the other albums, that ts still a complete homage to the best African artists on earth.
