Biography[]
Daphné was born in Buea, Cameroon. She grew up in Douala, Cameroon.[3] She has stayed in Yaounde, Poitiers in the Poitou region, the Alps and even abroad. She has always been a huge fan of Henry Purcell, Mozart and Maurice Ravel. Her modern musical tastes include Stevie Wonder and Sting but she says the latter did not influence her own work. Technically speaking, the most important thing for her in writing a song is finding the right tune because "tunes carry emotions". Sometimes referred to as the French Björk, Daphné's entrancing voice often has her compared to a fairy. She confesses that she "would love to touch the hearts of people who stopped believing in their dreams, in their lives; who only think of running away. "[4]
