De Pradines sang Vodou songs in Creole on the radio when it was dangerous to do so,[2] and was the first Haitian singer to sign a recording contract with a record company.[3] She married Richard M. Morse, a Latin-American scholar and writer from the United States who she met while studying in New York with Martha Graham.[4] Her albums were released internationally, including by Smithsonian Folkways in the United States.[5]

She and her husband had one daughter and one son, Richard A. Morse, who also became a musician and prominent public figure in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
