Biography

Described as “strong, resilient and passionate,” by B-Sides and Badlands and “a badass, a mic killer, and a hustler,” by Popdust, Daphne Willis is a genderfluid artist that exists with her multitudes on full display. “I stay true to myself, I’m honest with my fans, and I try to put music out that doesn’t shy away from the dark sh*t... that says ‘it’s okay to have dark sh*t’,” she states with typical candidness. This sentiment has helped her create a diverse catalogue of work that straddles worlds of commercial incandescence and raw emotionality, all whilst defying the constraints of conventional genre. Her powerhouse RnB releases like “BrickxBrick” are favorites on ESPN, whilst her pop/rock track "Legacy" was featured in Equality Now's gala in tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsberg (introduced by Meryl Streep and Gloria Steinem). Her music is constantly featured in popular programming like Empire, One Tree Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral and more. Meanwhile, her breathtaking musical letter on addiction, “Somebody’s Someone”, has amassed over 24 million views online, and launched her as a sought after speaker in the worlds of mental health, addiction and trauma recovery. It’s no wonder that the press has declared her to be, “fun and refreshingly smooth” (Paste), “timeless” (Pop Matters), and “taking the world of music by storm” (Affinity). Daphne Willis is a singer-songwriter who is an industry unto herself.
