Angèle’s biography: artistic heritage and meteoric rise
Born on December 3, 1995 in Uccle (Brussels), Angèle grew up immersed in an artistic environment: daughter of singer Marka and comedian Laurence Bibot, and sister of rapper Roméo Elvis, she was introduced very early to jazz piano and the stage.
Trained at the Jazz Studio in Antwerp, she acquired a solid musical culture that she would put on display in her first videos posted on Instagram from 2015.
Her ironic, intimate, and visual approach to everyday life immediately resonated with young digital audiences. In 2018, everything changed: the single “La Loi de Murphy” went viral, and the album Brol propelled Angèle into a whole new dimension.

📈 The album generates estimated gross revenues of €5M for the label, of which nearly €1M went to Angèle.
