about
Wesli releases "Blackman Samba" on January 1, 2024 to commemorate the independence of Haiti proclaimed on January 1, 1804.
Wesli is one of Haiti's most revered and accomplished musicians and his hot new single "Blackman Samba" is a powerful mix of Haitian roots music with funk, reggae, dancehall, soul and Afrobeat.
The second single from Wesli's upcoming album is accompanied by an amazing music video filmed in Haiti and Miami. The song has an important message: "As a Blackman, our culture gives us our own identity. Don't define us with your stereotypes. The only way you'll know us is by sitting down and learning who we are."
