Born Martin Bresso in Paris, France, Tchami was a regular fixture at the record store Samad, studying classic house, r&b and hip-hop imported from England and America. He began producing around town finding his voice, and eventually hit upon a sound that's equally energetic and soulful - one capable of moving audiences and leaving them with a feeling of deep bliss.
Tchami tours the globe most days out of the year, and has played major international festivals including the Ultra Music Festivals, Electric Daisy Carnival, HARD Summer Music Festival, Coachella, multiple iterations of Lollapalooza (US, Paris, Brazil) and VELD Music Festival, to name just a few, always with the goal to take the audience higher and higher.

Driving outer space, yeah (yeah)
Your supplier, I stay higher
I'm on drugs everyday (uh)
I'm messiah, I desire
To take over the states (ah)
I'm a fighter, we don't get tired
Reason I got it made (yeah)
Paid a helluva price to live this life
In the sun we don't see shade (uh)
She caught my eye, might make her my wife
I know she wanna be saved (she wanna be saved)
Spend a little time, you have a goodnight
On a island watchin' waves (watchin' waves)
Diamond without appraise (uh)

The lyrics to Tchami's song "Praise" are an interesting mix of self-aggrandizement, drug references, and desire for a partner to share life's experiences with. The singer starts by describing their "fly attire" and love of NASCAR driving, before immediately jumping to the fact that they are "on drugs everyday" and consider themselves to be a "messiah." This confident portrayal of self carries throughout the song, with the singer claiming to be a fighter who never gets tired and has "got it made."
The tone shifts slightly in the second verse when the singer mentions a potential love interest who they believe wants to be "saved." They spend time together on an island watching the waves and the singer sees the person as someone to finally praise. It's unclear whether the "helluva price" paid to live this life refers to the cost of success or the cost of the drugs that the singer references throughout the song. Overall, the lyrics to "Praise" paint a picture of a confident individual who is living life on their own terms but seeking a partner to share it with.
