Jean De Dieu Chrisostome ROUDASSINGOUA, better known by his stage name Nemezis, is an independent Francophone rapper born on December 11, 1998. His passion for music has been ingrained in his soul since a young age, and his artistic journey is imbued with cultural diversity and a profound quest for meaning.
As a child, Nemezis was part of a Christian music choir, an experience that shaped his connection with music from an early age. It was there that he discovered and appreciated the enchanting melodies of African music, infusing his being with a unique rhythm and emotion.
From a young age, Nemezis displayed a talent for writing. In 2007, he penned his very first poem, already revealing the brilliance of his creative soul. However, it wasn't until 2016 that he took a decisive step by entering a recording studio for the first time, laying the foundation for what would become his professional music career.
Undoubtedly, the music of Michael Jackson has had a significant influence on Nemezis. Since his tumultuous childhood, the captivating melodies of the King of Pop have nurtured his musical imagination and contributed to shaping his distinctive style, blending rich and diverse musical references.

His art is an authentic form of expression, emanating directly from his heart and mind. Each word, each rhyme, and each note is a means for him to express his deepest emotions, hopes, and struggles.
His stage name, Nemezis, carries a strong and symbolic meaning. It is an extension of "Nemesis," the goddess from Greek mythology associated with vengeance, justice, and destiny. This legendary figure embodies the implacable force of divine anger and celestial punishment to restore balance in the universe. Through this concept, Nemezis seeks to express the righteous anger in the face of the world's injustices while also evoking redemption and the pursuit of justice in an ever-evolving society.
In 2022, Nemezis made a powerful entry into the world of professional music with the release of his mixtape "Nemezis.0." This album marks the beginning of an artistic adventure that is only just starting and promises to go far beyond the borders of the Francophone world.
