Raffaelien is a creator of contrasts, a tightrope walker moving between shadow and light.
Singer, songwriter and composer, he builds a universe where fragility becomes a weapon and rebellion becomes melody. Inspired by the audacity of New York’s Club Kids, the flamboyance of David Bowie and the avant-garde spirit of Klaus Nomi, he shapes a theatrical form of pop infused with lyricism, visual boldness and raw energy.

His songs explore the tension between intimacy and spectacle, between the human being and the persona, between fame and anonymity. Switching naturally between English and French, his lyrics invite listeners into a world where every track becomes a manifesto, a cry for freedom, a reflection of vulnerability, a declaration of artistic independence.

His visual and sonic universe intertwines fashion, cinema and queer underground culture.
On stage and on screen, Raffaelien doesn’t simply sing: he embodies his songs as living fragments, rituals of transformation, and acts of resistance.

More than a musician, he is an architect of emotions, a craftsman of spectacle, a modern poet in search of the absolute.
