"Living Like Angels"
Modess
“Let’s live like angels,” the new song by Raphaël Modess is a true ode to love, a Biguine infused with Afrobeat influences, a masterful blend of Jamaican toast, Caribbean and African rhythms. A pure moment of musical sensuality.
Raphaël Modess is an Afro-Caribbean artist, songwriter, and screenwriter who draws inspiration from everyday life. Immersed in music from a young age, he began writing his first lyrics at just 11 years old. He tackles societal themes such as love, family, and human relationships, in Creole, English, or French. Initially influenced by Antillean music, he naturally gravitated towards urban genres (Reggae, Ragga, Dancehall, Hip-Hop…).
Through various encounters starting in 1996, Raphaël Modess traversed sound systems in Martinique, then in France as part of different collectives, leading him to perform in several cities across the mainland and even in Tunisia. He also experimented with acoustic formats.
In 2001, he released a track on the compilation by DJ Hallan, titled Faya Yo.
In 2020, Raphaël Modess decided to launch his solo career with a series of singles in collaboration with the Bordeaux label B Music: Vivons comme les anges, Suis à l’ouest, An Mitan Lan Nuit… while awaiting his album.
