Starting in 2001, Najoua studied law at the University of Nancy, but left for Paris to pursue a career in music.

Najoua also developed a very dramatic stage routine to encapsulate the song and its highly charged emotional content as was demonstrated in the celebrated 'back to school' performance in Lille in 2006.

Najoua has said that the song has nothing to do with gay issues, as has been suggested, but concerns the unlikely love of a human girl for an archangel and questioned whether that can be reciprocated.

The video was shot, very appropriately, in the stark interior and beautiful grounds of the ruined ancient Cistercian Abbaye de Notre-Dame du Val à MERIEL On May 29, 2006, she released her debut album titled Entre deux mondes, which debuted at #7 on the French charts and at #1 on the iTunes France music store.

Two other singles were released, "Je Ferme les Yeux" in June 2006, which was also an electro-pop title, but it met with less success than "Gabriel."

It deals with different themes such as love, friendship (Stella), war, and pedophilia (Docteur Gel) along with her distress and disappointment when Najoua came to Paris (Bons Baisers de Paris) Najoua Belyzel also released a new single, "Quand revient l'été ", on 10 September 2007.

The video features a mannequin who becomes alive (played by Najoua) who is then disappointed by the cruelty of the world and decides to return to her previous state.

In September 2014, after a period of five years, and much to the acclaim of her fans, Najoua released a new song "Rendez-Vous" with accompanying video, shot in the night by the banks of the Seine in a deserted Paris.
