Onè Respè always had a passion for music. "Growing up in haiti my aunt made sure we attended church every sundays i remember going just to hear the choir sing my love fo music was strong and still is". One day while i was listening to da radio and i remember they was playing (se tifi ya ki kwit yon poul, poul la pete chodyè, poul la vole lale m' pap pale, m' pap koze) that's when it hit me so many thought start going inside my heard i took a pen, a piece of paper and i started writting before i knew it i wrote my first song. Ironic huh i didn't even know my mother but my first song was to her, thinking her for not having an abbortion. In 2004 i felt like i had to take the rap creole game to another level so i started participating in shows ( Island Pride, Russel Auditorium, YWCA, Brocton, New York, West Palm and many more).
