Introducing: Camille Yembe
Time to get to know our nominees a little better. Camille Yembe shares songs that inspire her to create art and we chat with her about things (almost!) nobody knows about her... ;-) Can you keep a secret?
Before you start reading, get into the vibe that is Camille Yembe. She's created a playlist of 16 tracks that inspire her.
What was the first song you ever wrote about?
'Ma Jolie demoiselle'. It talks about a girl who’s seen as weird in our society, but she is just being herself. The song has never been released, though.
Which song of your own means the most to you and why?
'Encore', because the message in it is the one that sticks to me the most. It says that I want more, that I want to succeed and it’s ok to assume success.
Artists people like if they'll also like your music:
If you like pop, rock and rap. I’m a mix of all those genres, it’s difficult to relate to one artist.
What do people like to do if they like you?
Having no boundaries in what they do. Do things that stick to their vision. Be the captain of their boat. Go and take what was not meant to be for them.
What is something (almost) nobody knows about you?
I’m very flexible.
Dream collab:
Aphex Twin or Doechii.
Lastly, give us a random inspirational quote!
"Je te l’ai peut-être pas dit, mais j’en voulais encore."
