Jocelyne Labylle


Jocelyne Labylle is a Guadeloupean zouk musician.

Career

In 1992 Labylle joined the group Elodie; in 1994 she joined Zouk Orchestra. She appeared on the covers of all their albums.
After performing on three of their albums, Labylle left to pursue a solo career. She teamed up with Federick Caracas, Harry Diboula, Jacob Desvarieux and Liso to record the single "Quand tu veux". Months later the album On verra was released.
In 2000 she returned to the studio to record her second album. The single "J'ai deposé les clefs" was released followed by the album Ma Petite Lumiere. The album features "Parle-moi d'elle" written by Harry Diboula.
In 2003, she met Passi, Cheela, and Jacob Desvarieux. Together they produced the single Laisse parler les gens. Despite controversy surrounding the song’s composition — which was alleged to be a plagiarism by Jocelyne Labylle of a work by Henri Debs — the record sold more than 1 million copies and was nominated for the Victoires de la musique. The single became one of the summer hits in France, Africa, and the Caribbean and received Platinum certification. On 28 March 2007, the Paris High Court ended the controversy, ruling that the single had indeed been plagiarized. The court ordered EMI Music and Issap Production to pay Henri Debs €15,000 and prohibited them from exploiting the song in any form.
In 2007 she collaborated with Haitian musician Roberto Martino of the compas group T-Vice for his single "J'aimerais te revoir".
