Been listening to alot of old Zenglen recently (the 1999 - 2005 years)
when I was younger, Gracia Delva was like Michael Jackson to me.... top 5 voices ever.
& Maestro Richie is my favorite songwriter ever.
So nostalgic.... Our music is so underrated.
Finally other people here who love kompa.
Never loved them but I’ve learned to appreciate Zenglen over time but I was always more of a Tabou Combo fan and a Zin fan first and foremost. But Delva no doubt one of the GOATs. Powerful voice. Dadou Pasquet from Magnum Band is another one I feel is under appreciated as a powerful voice in the HMI. I feel we are losing those powerful voices in the new wave of kompa.
Some of the newer bands we have nowadays seem to have more of a “boyband” feel to them but they still make dope music. Bands like Harmonik, Carimi (broken up), Vayb, Kay, etc
Like I don’t care for Michael Guirand (formerly Carimi now Vayb) but dude be dropping some gems
Have me like “ fukk you!
But that’s my shyt , tho
