MEET DZELAM | NEW SINGLE-SHEPHERD| S6 Epi 1 | 2025

Georgette Bleau|
Born and raised in Cameroon, West Africa, HD SMILE with real names; HANS DZELAMONYUY is a part time artist and a full time soldier in the U.S Army, grew up as a church boy and loved playing soccer. Have always loved music but was not interested in being an artist. Growing older and leaving my hometown for the city, I became friends with a producer whose studio was in the same compound where I lived. He would invite me to the studio just to hangout and one day, he was working on a beat and playfully asked if I would like to record with him. I agreed and we made a song, he was surprised at how well I did and advised I take music serious. He has been my beat maker and producer (SMASH-LAZER). I try to share positive messages, encouragement and love through my music. 

 

MEET DZELAM:

Hans Dzelamonyuy: formerly known as HD SMILES, better known today as DZELAM, never thought he’d be an artist. Born and raised in Cameroon, West Africa, Hans was the church boy with a love for soccer, not the stage. Music was always around him, but never in his plans.


That changed when life moved him from his hometown to the city. In his new home, destiny sat just a few doors away, a producer with a studio in the same compound. At first, Hans was only a guest, hanging out while the beats played in the background. But one day, the producer asked a simple question that shifted everything: “Want to record something?”


What began as a playful moment turned into revelation. Hans stepped up to the mic, recorded a track, and shocked everyone, including himself. His raw talent was undeniable. The producer, now known as Smash-Lazer, told him to take music seriously. From that day forward,DZELAM was born.

Today, he wears two uniforms. One as a full-time soldier in the U.S. Army, and another as a part-time artist carrying a message of hope, love, and encouragement through every song. For DZELAM, music feeds the soul; it’s our testimony. Proof that sometimes, your calling finds you when you least expect it.#CameroonToUSA #SoldierAndArtist #PositiveVibes #MusicWithPurpose #FaithAndMusic #InspiringArtists #SmashLazer #UrbanMusicStory #PEGSTYLES #CarryYourMessage
