Sometimes we truly don't know people until we get close enough to them. "Strangers" tells a story a lot of people can relate to

Strangers

Larryne Melh is a UK‑based Cameroonian‑Finnish Afro‑Fusion singer and songwriter whose music blends African rhythms, soulful melodies, and multilingual expression. Singing in English, French, and Cameroonian Pidgin English, she creates a warm, intimate sound shaped by her multicultural identity and emotional honesty.

She began writing songs at age nine and sang in her church youth choir. She moved to Finland in 2008 where she released her debut singles “Just Kossa (Just Dance)” and “Sugar Coated Love” in 2014. Alongside her artistry, Larryne holds an MSc in mechanical engineering with distinction and now balances life as a full‑time design engineer while carving her place in the Afro‑Fusion landscape.

Her latest release, “Strangers,” reflects on how love can feel effortless at first and how that sweetness can shift as reality and expectations unfold, a theme carried by her warm, textured vocals.

Her catalogue includes “Reloved,” “Still Love You,” “Fais Moi Bisou (Kiss Me),” “Gimme A Chance,” “I Wish,” “Some Type of Way,” “Gonna Be Ok (Hakuna Matata),” and “Who Made You the Judge,” tracing her evolution across vulnerability, rhythm, and cultural fusion.

Larryne has earned recognition across Europe and the diaspora, including Best New Afrobeat Artist (Afrobeat Cult Award, 2014), Best Afropop Artist (CDMA UK, 2018), and BBC Introducing airplay. Rooted in authenticity and Afrodiasporic rhythm, her music feels deeply human, reflecting identity, movement, and emotional truth.
