French singer-songwriter Renaud's second unnamed studio album is commonly known as Laisse béton, although it is sometimes referred to as Place de ma mob after the wall inscription on the album cover. It was released in 1977 by Polydor Records. The title is verlan for "laisse tomber" ("drop it, forget about it", lit. "let it fall"), from the first song on the album.^[1]
