Deja
Belle (translation: Already Beautiful) didn't grow up singing in the
church nor was her mother a music teacher, but one would naturally
assume so once they hear her undeniably powerful and stylized voice. Originally
from Paris, France by the way of the Congo, Deja settled in the
Washington, DC area where she resides today. After graduating from
Howard University, Deja infiltrated the Indie scene performing all
over the metropolitan area, Baltimore, New York and opening for legends
such as Dionne Warwick. After the birth of her daughter in 2010, she made her acting debut as Camille in the 2011 season of the critically acclaimed “Running: Amok--The Play”. She
has also done philanthropic work with organizations such as Africa
Action, Falling Whistles, V-Day and Friends of the Congo to help bring
awareness to issues of the Congo through her music. Deja Belle is set to release her highly anticipated EP "Je Suis" (translation: I Am).
