Daniel DeBourg is a pop singer that was born in Chelmsford, England. DeBourg got his starting writing songs for UK singer Jamelia (known for hits like "Thank You" and "Stop"). He was influenced by the videos by Michael Jackson and Janet Jackson to pursue dance by the age of four, and by the age of eleven, he had been admitted to study at the exclusive Royal Ballet School. Although dance was his primary interest, as a teen he was also fronting bands.

Through a friend, DeBourg recorded some rough demos, singing a cappella into a Dictaphone, then sent the tape to artist manager Dean Zepherin. The demo soon landed in the hands of Robbie Robertson, who was scouting talent for Dreamworks. Impressed by DeBourg's soulful voice, the label signed the fledgling singer to a deal.

Working with the likes of R.Kelly, and Tim & Bob, DeBourg recorded his debut album Tell the World over a five week period, releasing it in 2002. The first single, "I Need An Angel" hit the Top 30 of the Billboard charts. In 2004, the single was remade by American Idol winner Ruben Studdard on his album of the same title, I Need An Angel.

In 2005 R&B singer Bobby Valentino used a sample of DeBourg's track "Book of Love" on his album. DeBourg is currently at work on a second album.
