DORIS Unleashes Empowerment with Her Latest Anthem ‘Mes Exs’

Prepare to be captivated by “Mes Exs” (My Exes), the latest irresistible fusion of pop and R&B from the visionary singer-songwriter DORIS. The track stands as celebration of freedom, self-ownership, and unapologetic confidence.
With its addictive melody and sultry rhythm, “Mes Exs” challenges outdated societal norms and reclaims personal agency in a world that too often dictates women’s choices. This empowering anthem shines a light on the expectations placed upon women and transforms them into a joyous declaration of independence. It’s a reminder to embrace self-discovery, to love without constraints, and to dance to the rhythm of your own desires.
Beyond its liberating message, “Mes Exs” also carries a playful nod to past loves—the kings, the wolves, the wild ones—all wrapped in a groove that makes it impossible to resist.
DORIS is not just a musician; she is a storyteller, a modern-day griot who weaves words into spells that linger long after the music fades. Hailing from both Paris and Yaoundé, her multicultural roots shape her artistry and bring richness to her sound.
