*KOMPA MAGAZINE: What's your opinion/take on WHAT Mickael Guirand's NEXT MOVE should be? Should he create HIS OWN BAND, or should he go join a band that's already on the market?
FABRICE ROUZIER: "Mickael has confirmed a long time ago that he is one of the best front men out there. Whatever he decides will be to his advantage. It takes a lot to manage your own band and make it sustainable and he's done it before successfully. He knows pretty much all that there is to know about this business. If he chooses to join an existing band, i am confident that it will be a well thought of plan. He is an MVP and he will pick an outfit worthy of his superstar status."

*KOMPA MAGAZINE: Do you agree or disagree with MIKABEN telling us that MICKAEL GUIRAND is NOT just any singer...he is from CARIMI, therefore he CAN'T go to any band that will be seen by people as a DOWNGRADE?
FABRICE ROUZIER: "I understand Mika's point but there have been examples in Haitian Music History where Superstar singers have joined and rebranded existing bands and made major successes. Two names : Ti Manno and Compas Express and Larose with a portion of Meridional Des Cayes. The first one became Gemini and the second one became Missile 727.

Regardless of the path chosen, it will always be Mickael and so and so....The band becomes secondary when the lead singer has such a background."

KM!

This guy always drop some knowledge on the board. The problem with Mikael is the fact he's a frontman not a complete musician. Can he produce? Can he write his own lyrics? He needs to be careful abt his next move. Li bezwen solid mizisyen around him.

Its always refreshing to get perspective from a historian such as Mr. Rouzier

the only thing that he stated I dont quite fully agree with is this...

Regardless of the path chosen, it will always be Mickael and so and so....The band becomes secondary when the lead singer has such a background."

If Mickael's desire is to join a top band, I can think of a couple names that many will argue dont need to take a backseat for him as their credentials are comparable if not better

Wow wow excellent point! Mikeal should go to Dat7. I believe he will make an impact just like Timanno and one of my Favorite Artist Joseph Dieudonne Larose did with Missile 727. Go for it Mikeal

Everytime Fabrice opens his mouth, he drops knowledge. Kotem te konnen istwa HMI mwen?lol
