Kreyolicious Music: @SaskyaSky Touch My Body

Saskya Sky Touch My Body
Singer-songwriter and performer Sasky Sky has released “Touch My Body” a single from her upcoming EP. She’s showing that not only can she sing female empowerment tracks like “Pretty Girl Whip”, and heartbreak anthems like “Alo” (her Creole-language remake of British singer Adele’s “Hello”), but that she can also get sensual if she so desires. And speaking of sensual, “Touch My Body” is unlike any other track she’s released before. The beat is faster, and very, very wild. The track is produced by beatmaker OGE Beats, with engineer work done by Edward Rogers.

And what of the lyrics? Well, she’s definitely bold.

Check out a sample of the lyrics (written by her):

And on another verse, she coos:

Oh baby put it on
Don’t hold back give it all to me
I’m giving you my all I’m here to please
Doing my thing to the sound of the beat
I can be your dancing queen
Moving my body like you’ve never seen
Baby let me show you what we can be
Boom boom pow baby I can breathe

Well, Saskya!

This song reminded me of Whitney Houston’s classic song “I Wanna Dance With Somebody”—in that both singers portray dancing as not something casual, but something you can only do with someone who you truly care about—-and who cares about you. The following lyrics are from the song’s bridge:

When we dance, I lose control
My body’s on fire, its burning up
I lose my balance
It’s so amazing
It’s so exciting
Wish it never ends

You can listen to the actual song below!

Watch out for the EP to be released soon. Meanwhile, keep up with Saskya…

10 Questions With Singer-Songwriter Mikaelle Cartright

Mikaelle Cartright has a voice that’s like tropical silk. The New York-born, singer-songwriter has a jazzy style that recalls the styles of singers like Anita Baker with a little hint of Shirley Bassey. How did she develop her jazzy style? What role do her parents play in her support system as a singer-songwriter? Read on to find out. Kreyolicious: Your name is Mikaelle, no doubt stemming from the name Michael, which means Who Can Be Like God ? What is the most extraordinary thing that’s happened to your life that has had you saying the same phrase? Mikaelle Cartright: Correct, my name means “Who is like God”. My existence causes me to ask that constantly. My birth was a miracle. My mother almost lost me. She was placed on bed rest somewhere around the fourth month. The muscles of her uterus were giving out and the doctor said I was going to just fall out. The medication, some hormone treatment, was barely available and when Baby Doc fell, it was chaos. My mother was, thank God, ...

Haiti’s First Lady of Rap, and Hip Hop Kreyol?

Eunide Edouarin—the Haiti-based rapper more popularly known as Princess Eud —doesn’t like to do interviews. “When I’m being interviewed,” the raptress contends, “I have so many things going on my head at the same time that I sometimes answer questions they never asked me, and I’m kinda shy.” Yet shyness is a quality that very few would identity with Edouarin. Take a performance for example in which the self-described homebody held her own alongside CaRiMi , one of the most popular Haitian pop bands on the market, during one of her first big performances in New York. Slithering sexily onstage, the singer-rapper rapped effortlessly on the band’s hit “Fanm Nan Move”, before dissolving into a verse of her own song “Hey” . It’s utter confidence and bravado that shines through; no signs of timidity. Edouarin is a self-proclaimed traditional girl, but her start in the Haitian rap music game was far from conventional. While hanging at a local radio station in Port-au-Prince, she was invite...

Kreyolicious Interview: Mia Lopez, Publicist/Entrepreneur

Mia Lopez is the CEO and President of M.I.A. Media, Inc, a public relations firm based in Miami that caters to the Haitian entertainment industry. Lopez is a low-key person, but among her peers and industry insiders, her work doesn’t go unnoticed. Of her, Patrick Desvarieux, the founder of Kompa Magazine, said: “She is a natural. A people’s person. One of the best at what she does. A master of her craft.” Nick Jean of KalePwa.com calls her a pioneer. “She helped take the Haitian Community into modern times [in terms of her public relations work],” he contends. After being in the mainstream music industry, singer-songwriter Mickael Music wanted to enter the Haitian music market with her Bel Project, but wanted to go about it the right way. She recalls, “I asked around, ‘Who is the best PR marketing person in the Haitian music industry’? For the people that even knew what that meant all said, “Mia Lopez”, as if she [had] created the title in the Haitian music industry. When I say “ev...
