Background and release

In November 2022, Yamê created his TikTok account and began posting videos where he sings songs of around 30 seconds that he wrote and composed, or covers ("La bohème" by Charles Aznavour, "Tous les mêmes" by Stromae and "Feeling Good" by Nina Simone). In the comments, many people were asking him to release his songs, so on 27 January 2023 Yamê released "Call of Valhalla". In February the same year he was invited by Stromae to open for his concerts. He also performed at the Colors Show his song "Bécane" which went viral on social networks. On 5 October 2023 Yamê announced the release of his first album Elowi.
