He his known for his unique hairstyle in the shape of an M, and praised for his amazing guitar playing abilities , and his grandiose live performances à la David Bowie (documented in the live album Le Tour de -M-).
He is Louis Chédid's son. Some of his texts (among which Bonobo) have been written by the writer Andrée Chédid, who happens to be his grandmother.

Baïa Ya Baïa
Je suis venu te dire ces quelques mots d'amour
Je t'aime, je t'aimais, je t'aimerai toujours
Cette déclaration, depuis toujours en moi
Courbé dans ta chaleur, dans mon cœur, il y a
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
De ma plus tendre enfance, bercé par ton image
À mon adolescence, parfois mes innocences
Toi, tu révèles en moi ma sagesse sauvage
De l'amour, un message, dans mon cœur, il y a
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa
J'aime tant ce que tu es, ta sensibilité
Tes larmes de joie, surtout pas les changer
J'aime aussi m'assoupir quand tu ris aux éclats
Comme des paradis, dans ton cœur, il y a
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
Baïa Ya Baïa
