Edith certainly went on to live up to her name, causing what can only be described as a seismic reaction when she exploded onto the international music scene in her 20s and staked her claim to join the clan of new zouk divas.
Edith, who would go on to become one of the leading female voices of the new zouk movement, began her musical apprenticeship in her teens, performing in concert with her elder brother.
Edith was to have taken her new album to the stage at the start of 2003, performing a series of concerts featuring her new songs.
