French rock/R&B star Tété was born July 25, 1975, in Dakar, the capital city of his father's homeland, Senegal. When his parents divorced, he returned with his mother to northeastern France, to the town of St. Dizier. As a teen, Tété drew his musical inspiration from the pop and rock music of the day. Using the guitar given him by his mother, he assembled small bands with friends and began experimenting with songwriting, composing mainly in English. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/T%C3%A9t
