| Birth name | Henry Green-Dupré |
| Also known as | Von Von le Vet |
| Origin | Canada |
| Genres | Hip hop |
Henry Green-Dupré known by his stage names of Yvon Krevé and Von Von le Vet, is a French Canadian hip hop artist of Haitian origin.[1][2] Krevé was rose to notice following collaborations with the duo Sans Pression.[3] His 2000 debut, L'accent grave, topped the Quebec sales charts and was nominated for an ADISQ hip-hop award in 2001, and won best francophone album at the Canadian Music Awards.[4] and in 2009 was described in the newspaper La Presse as one of the five albums that had defined Quebec rap.[3] A single from that album, "Yvon Krevé", reached number one on the countdown programme for Canada's leading francophone music video channel (Décompte MusiquePlus).[4]
The name is a play on words: while Yvon is a not-uncommon first name, it matches the informal Quebec French pronunciation of ils vont (they will). Thus the full name sounds like ils vont crever, or "they're gonna die".
