Featuring dublab DJ Dara Genesis Journey to the four corners of the world with the ancestral Haitian rhythms, sharp words, and innovative hip-hop of Waahli, performed in English, French, and Haitian Creole.
Waahli is a Montreal artist born of Haitian parents. Raised in a family where music is omnipresent, he is immersed by the traditional Haitian melodies from artists such as Tabou Combo, Coupé Cloué, and Manno Charlemagne. Performed in English, French and Haitian Creole, these songs are a fusion of catchy rhythms at the crossroads of rap and Afro-beat and are a true tribute to Haitian culture. In spite of a great influence of Haitian music, it is with hip-hop that he develops his own style.
In 2004, Waahli co-founded Nomadic Massive, a mythical hip hop group in Montreal.
With its ancestral rhythms and his sharp words, Waahli’s innovative hip-hop takes us to the four corners of the world.
