Teyma: the bouyon pop closing Ici Demain in Paris

Published October 20, 2026

Teyma is an emerging French singer whose discography fits in five singles and whose path fits in one year: revealed by “Chichi” and “Shake it up”, she followed in 2026 with “City Boy”, produced by Dinamarca, and “Négatif”, then released “Sexy Dino”, produced by Holomobb, on 16 October 2026. The specialist press places her at the crossing of pop, R and B, rap and bouyon, calls her close to Theodora, and Paris programmers have given her the closing slot of the seventh Ici Demain festival at FGO-Barbara, on 20 November 2026. This profile follows that path with the only open sources available: two music press articles, a festival press pack, platform credits and one verified official account. It also states clearly what none of those sources gives: no full name, no age, no home town, no label.

Who Teyma is: a singer, five singles, almost no biography

Teyma is presented by every source opened for this profile as a singer of the new French scene. The site Just Music ranks her among “the new talents to follow on the French scene”. The press pack of the Ici Demain festival, run by the Paris venue FGO-Barbara, describes her as an “emerging artist of the French scene” who “offers a universe mixing pop, bouyon and other dance sounds”. Two wordings, two independent sources, one positioning: a French pop voice of which one declared colour is bouyon. That is the verified starting point of this profile, and it is already more precise than most of the sheets circulating on artists of her generation.

The rest of the public civil record is, by contrast, remarkably empty, and this profile notes it instead of filling it. None of the sources consulted, neither the Just Music article, nor the Numero magazine selection, nor the FGO-Barbara pack, nor the platform credits, publishes Teyma full name, her age, her town of birth or residence, nor the name of a label or a team. That absence is no mystery maintained by this site: it matches the stage of her career. Teyma is an artist of recent singles, spotted by the press in 2026, whose documentation follows the usual rhythm of emergences, first the tracks, then the portraits.

One single identity element can be checked directly, and this profile checked it by opening the page: her official Instagram account, linked by the Just Music article, displays the name “Teyma avec un seul A”, Teyma with only one A, with the handle teymaaa, as a creator account. The detail has its charm and its rigour: the stage name is written with a single final a, the handle counts three of them, and the singer has turned that spelling precision into her display name. It is the kind of small, controllable fact on which this site builds its profiles when the broad biographical lines are not published yet.

Why, then, a full page for five singles? Because the bouyon of 2026 no longer plays out only in the parties of Guadeloupe and Martinique or in the studios of Dominica where it was born. It also plays out in the new French pop, where singers like Teyma mix it with R and B and rap in tracks under two minutes cut for clubs and platforms. Documenting that branch too, with its names, its producers and its dates, is part of the work of this site, on the same footing as documenting the founding bands such as WCK. Provided, as always, that nothing is invented on the way.

“Chichi” and “Shake it up”: the breakthrough, credits in hand

The two press sources agree on the starting point: Teyma made her name with “Chichi” and “Shake it up”. Just Music writes that she “made her mark with Chichi and Shake it up”, and the Ici Demain pack calls her “revealed with tracks like CHICHI and SHAKE IT UP”, adding that she develops there “a strong musical and visual identity”. The magazine Numero, in its selection of the women singers and rappers to follow for summer 2026, published on 5 June 2026 and updated on 16 July 2026, keeps “Chichi” and dates it to 2025. Teyma public chronology therefore starts there: a 2025 track the 2026 press still cites as her calling card.

For “Chichi”, the platforms add what the press does not give: the credits and the measure. Deezer playlist data credits the track as follows: written by Teyma, composed by Alexay Beats, for a duration of 1 minute and 54 seconds. One sole writer, one sole composer, one short format: the track is built like the club tracks of its generation, a loop, a chorus, a signature. That credit also corrects any presentation of Teyma as a mere performer: on her breakthrough track, the platform credits her with the writing, alone.

The filing of the track tells her double belonging. Deezer places “CHICHI” in a playlist titled Bouyon bass, alongside Theodora “KONGOLESE SOUS BBL” and tracks by 1t1, that is at the heart of the current French speaking bouyon sound. The same track also appears in French R and B playlists. Neither the playlist programmers nor this site therefore have to choose in her place: the track circulates in both worlds at once, and it is precisely that double circulation that defines Teyma position in the 2026 landscape, between the bouyon playlist and French urban pop.

Of “Shake it up”, by contrast, the open sources give no precise date, no credit and no duration: only its place, second, in the pair of breakthrough tracks cited by both press sources. This profile therefore cites it for what is established, one of the two tracks that made Teyma known, without assigning it a year or a producer. The difference in treatment between the two tracks is not a choice by this site, it is the state of the public record: one track documented by the platforms, the other only named by the press. Both facts are published, each at its level of proof.

“City Boy” and “Négatif”: 2026 speeds up

The second step of the path is dated by the Ici Demain pack: “In 2026, she continues her rise with the singles CITY BOY (produced by Dinamarca) and NEGATIF”. Just Music confirms the same sequence, stating that after “Chichi” and “Shake it up”, she “continued her path with City boy, produced by Dinamarca, and Négatif”. Two singles in 2026, then, one of which carries a producer name club music followers know well, and the other of which remains, in the open sources, a title with no detailed credit.

For “City Boy”, Dinamarca artist page on Shazam lets us specify the nature of the collaboration, and this profile specifies it rather than leaving it vague. Shazam presents “CITY BOY” there as a 2026 single signed Dinamarca and Teyma, and ranks it among Dinamarca most streamed tracks. The press speaks of a Teyma track produced by Dinamarca; the platform bills it as a joint single by both artists. The two readings are compatible, production on one side, co-signing on the other, but they do not say exactly the same thing, and a careful profile must give both: Teyma sings over a Dinamarca production, and the track is released under both their names.

The choice of Dinamarca as producer places the track in a precise aesthetic, that of the hybrid club musics mixing electronic, Latin rhythms and pop, an aesthetic Shazam attaches to the electronic genre for Dinamarca. For a singer whose bouyon colour is claimed by the press, working with a club producer rather than with a bouyon producer from Guadeloupe is a signal: Teyma bouyon passes through pop and through the European club as much as through the Antillean line. It is one of the ways the genre, born in Dominica, keeps travelling: no longer only from island to island, but from pop scene to pop scene.

“Négatif” closes this 2026 sequence in the available sources. Just Music and the Ici Demain pack both cite it, in that order, after “City Boy”, with no named producer and no date more precise than the year. This profile keeps it as Teyma fourth documented single, and stops there. Neither the meaning of the title, nor its ranking, nor its reception is established by an open source, and any further sentence about it would be padding. The verified discography therefore counts, at this stage, four tracks even before the October single: “Chichi”, “Shake it up”, “City Boy” and “Négatif”.

“Sexy Dino”: the single of 16 October 2026, produced by Holomobb

The most recent track in the record is also the best dated. Just Music announces: “The singer Teyma unveils Sexy dino, a new single produced by Holomobb, available this 16 October 2026”. A new producer in her published path, Holomobb, a release date to the day, and a music press article devoted to the track alone: at the scale of an emerging artist, that is the sign of a release worked as an appointment, four days before the publication of this profile. The article embeds the track as a video listen, which makes it, with “Chichi”, one of the two catalogue tracks a reader can check online immediately.

The description Just Music gives of her style on that occasion is the most complete this profile has, and it deserves to be quoted precisely: Teyma is placed there “at the crossing of pop, R and B, rap and bouyon”, with a “bold style, between provocative attitude, second degree and sounds cut for clubs”. Four named genres, bouyon among them, and one explicit function, the club. That is not the vocabulary of a bouyon artist in the Guadeloupe scene sense, and this profile does not present her as one: it is the vocabulary of a French pop singer for whom bouyon is a central ingredient, claimed by her press from the first in depth article on.

The conclusion of the article sets the ambition the press lends her: with “Sexy Dino”, Just Music writes, “Teyma keeps tracing her road and confirms her will to shake up the codes of the new French music scene”. This site does not repeat that formula as a fact, but as what it is, the judgement of a music media outlet on an artist it follows. The fact itself is simpler and stronger: in one year of documented discography, Teyma has moved from a noticed first track to a single announced by the specialist press, produced by a different name at almost every step, Alexay Beats on “Chichi”, Dinamarca on “City Boy”, Holomobb on “Sexy Dino”.

That producer rotation is, in fact, a path trait the credits let us read without speculating. Three named producers for five singles, no name repeated in the sources: Teyma builds her sound through successive encounters rather than with one house producer, at least in the current state of the record. It is the method of many pop singers of her generation, and it explains the variety of labels the platforms attach to her, from French R and B to bouyon bass. The common thread is not a producer, it is a voice and a writing, hers, credited from “Chichi” on.

Close to Theodora: Teyma in the new French pop with bouyon

Just Music places Teyma in a precise lineage: “Close to Theodora, Teyma is among the new talents to follow on the French scene”. This site reproduces that closeness as a press fact, attributed to its source: no collaboration between the two singers is documented in the open sources, no joint track exists in the record, and this profile invents none. But the comparison has a musical meaning the playlists confirm: bouyon has become, since Theodora breakthrough, one of the recognised ingredients of the new French pop, and Teyma is cited, by the press as by playlist programmers, among the voices working that ingredient after her.

The media support, as Just Music reports it, draws the same movement. The site writes that Teyma was “spotted by Vogue France, which selected her among the artists to listen to during summer 2026”, that she also drew the attention of the British magazine NME, and that she “benefits notably from the support of ELLE, Konbini and Shades”. This profile attributes that list to Just Music, the source that publishes it: the Vogue France and NME selections were not reopened one by one during this research, so they are reported as backing cited by the music press, not as items checked directly. The Numero selection, on the other hand, was opened and verified: “Chichi” is there, dated 2025, in the selection of French women singers and rappers to follow for summer 2026.

That position, a pop singer with bouyon backed by fashion and culture media as much as by the music press, marks a stage in the history of the genre this site documents elsewhere. Bouyon was born in Dominica at the end of the 1980s, in bands like WCK, it grew in the carnivals and parties of the Caribbean, it was reworked as bouyon soca from 2003, then adopted on a large scale in Guadeloupe and Martinique. To see it cited, in 2026, as one of the four colours of a singer followed by Vogue France measures the road travelled by the Dominican sound in French pop culture. Our page on the women of bouyon follows the other voices of that movement.

Proportions must be kept, and this profile keeps them. Teyma is not, in the state of the sources, an artist of the bouyon scenes of Guadeloupe or Dominica, she has neither the catalogue, nor the Caribbean collaborations, nor the party presence those scenes require. She is a French pop singer whose bouyon is a documented component, through the press, through a festival and through playlist filings. To mistake her for an artist of the Gwada line would be the mirror error of denying her bouyon colour. Between the two, this profile chooses the description the sources support, word for word.

Paris, 20 November 2026: closing Ici Demain at FGO-Barbara

The most concrete fact in the coming record is a stage date, and it falls after the publication of this profile, which makes it an appointment any reader can check. The Ici Demain festival, run by FGO-Barbara in the Goutte d Or district, in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, holds its seventh edition from 18 to 20 November 2026. The venue site, in its presentation article of the three evenings published on 5 October 2026, describes the last evening, Friday 20 November, and closes its presentation with Teyma: she “closes this seventh edition with her pop fed on bouyon and dance sounds”. Closing a Paris emergence festival, in a venue whose stated mission is the development of emerging artists, is a consecration at her scale.

The festival press pack gives the same information in programme form: Teyma appears in the 20 November line up, alongside the other artists of the evening, and her notice repeats, word for word or nearly, the elements of this profile, the universe mixing pop and bouyon, the breakthrough through “CHICHI” and “SHAKE IT UP”, the 2026 singles “CITY BOY” and “NEGATIF”. The agreement between the press pack, the venue article and the Just Music article gives those facts their solidity: three distinct publications, one single path, with no contradiction on the tracks, the producers or the chronology.

Close with what this profile still does not know, because the list is part of its honesty. No open source gives Teyma full name, her age, her family or geographical origin, her label, nor the existence of an album or an EP: her documented discography is a discography of singles, five tracks between 2025 and October 2026. No official chart position and no verified listening figure comes with those tracks in the sources consulted, and this profile therefore cites none. If an in depth portrait appears, if a long project is announced, if the evening of 20 November 2026 produces reviews, this profile will be completed and dated, like every page on this site.

Listening follows the order of the path. Start with “Chichi”, the 2025 track written by Teyma and composed by Alexay Beats, to hear the formula in its early state. Continue with “City Boy”, the joint single with Dinamarca, then “Sexy Dino”, the Holomobb produced track released on 16 October 2026, to measure the move toward the club. Our bouyon playlist and our new bouyon 2026 page place those tracks among those of the year. Between the first and the last already stands the summary of an emergence: a French pop singer who made bouyon one of her signatures, and whom Paris is about to hear closing a festival.

Frequently asked questions

Who is Teyma?

Teyma is an emerging French singer, presented by Just Music as one of the new talents to follow on the French scene, and by the Ici Demain festival of FGO-Barbara as an emerging artist whose universe mixes pop, bouyon and other dance sounds. She made her mark with “Chichi” and “Shake it up”, then released “City Boy”, “Négatif” and “Sexy Dino” in 2026.

What are Teyma tracks?

Does Teyma make bouyon?

Bouyon is one of her declared colours, not her only genre. Just Music places her “at the crossing of pop, R and B, rap and bouyon”, the Ici Demain festival speaks of her “pop fed on bouyon”, and Deezer files “Chichi” in a Bouyon bass playlist as well as in French R and B playlists. She belongs to the new French pop with bouyon, not to the bouyon scenes of Guadeloupe or Dominica.

What is Teyma real name?

None of the open sources consulted for this profile publishes her full name, her age or her home town. The only identity element checked directly is her official Instagram account, linked by Just Music, which displays the name “Teyma avec un seul A”, Teyma with only one A, with the handle teymaaa. This site does not fill that gap with guesses: if an in depth portrait publishes her identity, this profile will be updated.
