Information
Michel
Martelly, better known as "Sweet Micky", is
a musical marvel born in Port-au-Prince who has brought
incredible energy, passion and sensitivity to the world
of Haitian compas music. While his persona ignites great
controversy throughout the Haitian diaspora, it is overstated
with a pulsating, infectious beat, accompanied by satire
and sharp commentary. It can also be ever so softly understated
with a lilting, dream-like cadence. The only thing which
is predictable about Sweet Micky is that he is completely
un-predictable. Sweet Micky is often referred to as the "Bad
Boy" of Haitian music, but this description is music
more appropriate in its American slang definition where "bad" means
really, really good.
