Mickael Guirand Rejoins Carimi

Carimi Earlier today, the group Carimi announced that lead singer Mickael Guirand, who announced that he was taking a break from the band earlier this month, is rejoining the band. A message on the band’s Instagram page stated:

“The fans asked for it and we delivered. Many know that recently Mickael Guirand took a short pause from traveling and performing with the group. The outpour of love and concern from the fans was such a blessing and today we are proud to announce the return of Mickael back to where he belongs.”

The message went on to say that Guirand will be performing with the other members for the rest of the shows scheduled for December.

The band also took the time to express its gratitude to singer Mikaben, who was holding down the fort while Mickael Guirand went on the short sabbatical.

Hope the lead singer got all the time that he needed, and that whatever issues that led to his “pause” in the first place are under control, if not fully resolved. Moving forward, it’s essential that he continues to take good care of himself physically, mentally, and of course, spiritually.

I’m thinking that this band could have made a much bigger splash with the comeback…First, know that he’s coming back, and keep it on the down low…You know, get all commercial and stuff…The Return of Mickael Guirand, or something along the lines of…”Performing for the first time since his untimely departure…” But hey, his fans were pounding for his return…and couldn’t wait.

The fans of this band must be rejoicing left and right. Welcome back, dude.

According to the band’s social media, their next performance is set to take place in Paris on December 26th and 27th. They will be back in the USA afterwards, with a New Year’s Eve performance in New York. The first and second of 2016 will find them performing two dates in the Palm Beach-Miami area.

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...
