Biography

Daphne[4] was born in Buea to a Bakweri father and a Banyangi mother. She grew up in Douala, Cameroon.[5] She has stayed in Yaoundé, Buea in the Southwest Region region, and even abroad.

She has always been a huge fan of CeCe Winans, Mary Mary, Bébé Manga and Frank Edwards. Her modern musical tastes include Tiwa Savage and Rihanna 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". Daphne'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. "[6]
