Joé Dwèt Filé Eyes Stateside Konpa Hit With “4 Kampé”
The streaming era and increased globalization have largely leveled the playing field for more niche genres to make inroads in the U.S. market – and konpa could be up next. Popularized in the 1950s, konpa (sometimes spelled “kompa”) is a descendant of méringue music that is characterized by the prominent use of tanbou drum, buoyant horns and rhythmic guitars.With “4 Kampé,” Joé Dwèt Filé — a singer, songwriter and engineer of Haitian descent – is eyeing a hit single with notable crossover potential. During the period of Oct. 25-28, “4 Kampé” earned over 393,000 official on-demand U.S. streams. By the post-Halloween period of Nov. 1-4, consumption activity for the track rose 13%, collecting over 446,000 streams.
Filé started teasing the song a week before its Oct. 25 release with a post that has since garnered over 1.6 million views and over 195,000 likes. Two more teasers followed, with each each video earning more views than the last. Currently, the official “4 Kampé” TikTok soundboasts nearly 190,000 posts, with many of them featuring users performing the kare dance that traditionally accompanies konpa music. In just 12 days, the official “4 Kampé” lyric video hit 3.4 million views on YouTube, while the track’sofficial music video crossed two million views in under a week.
Although it is still early in the song’s run, these gains for “4 Kampé” look promising. – KD
