Talking to NYC promoter BOOGIE today, the 2 KLASS songs came up. This is what he told us.

BOOGIE: "KLASS ak 2 mizik sa yo, jaz la gin nan min yo pou yo kinbe industry a pou 1 an anko....SAN YO PAT BEZWEN METE CD DEYO. Those 2 songs are excellent and will do very well for the band. SI MWEN TE LOT JAZ...MWEN TAP KINBE CD MWEN TOUJOU and think hard before releasing it.....EXCEPT for Arly Lariviere Nu Look. I ain't got no worries for Arly and Nu Look. I believe in King Arly....apres sa...TOUT LA JAZ YO MET PANIKE avek 2 mizik sa yo ke KLASS lage la yo."

KM!

Misye MECHAN...
Pou jan gen djaz kap travay DU pou met CD deyo epi misye lagé pression nan dèyè neg yo...

Misye retiré NU LOOK mwen pa konn poukisa...
Aprè sa KLASS lagé la se Tout Djaz RANJÉ CHITA nou pou yo pa gad Anba nou...

BOOGIE, ou fin pale wi. Sim ta manager nenpot lot jazz vre. se konsey sa mwen tap ba yo. Those 2 songs KLASS just released will be making damages in the HMI, especially in the live circuit.

Let's just say, Klass sent a few bands back to the drawing board
the bar has been raised in terms of lyrics and and arrangements, so the next band that will come with a cd better come ready.
and I agree with Boogie, I am not worried about Arly he has yet to fail with a cd, so he is right about that.

Which Arly has no problem surpassing

neg yo rele Boogie a.... Se pale li pale selman. In hindsight he's telling bands to sit at home and not make any music ....... But if he was a serious promoter, he would encourage other bands to release music to keep the market juicy and in turn have better lineups at bals with fresh music for 2016. Everybody eats including you Boogie! Would you say this to the bands you represent?!?! No wonder your bands are suffering in NYC....... With advice like that they'll never get booked. Just think about it.

Oh boy, misye touye bagay la nèt. Kité yo lagé yo paské mwen gentan depasé limit pou yon nèg tandé 2 tracks. Mwen tandé mizik sa yo tankou youn epav. Gadon vye jazz Letènel ba nou. Ranjé Chita nou.

youn nan ra fwa mwen dako ak mesye sa
w pa janm ka konte Arly out paske li bon
kem fem mal pou Zenglen, san bon promosion podiab..bagay la duu net
Tvice Carimi Kreyol la, ap kontinye jwe nomal men fok yo rele sou ko yo
Djakout#1 pran kou depi Steve kite a, yap jwe men w santi jazz la pa lou menm jan
Disip dwe asirel ke sal pral lage a bon e fe bel promosion pou gen chans fon enpak,
sinon Gazzman dwe panse 10 fwa sou karye li
apre sa..mpaka di anyen trop pou lot yo...

I was talking to a friend of mine abt Zenglen this afternoon abt the same thing. Jazz la pa nan biznis. Yo mouri nan film nan. Good music isn't good enough. Marketing strategy zero baré. A Qui la faute?
By the way, I disagree with u on Djakout. Djazz la gen 99 problem but playing heavy isn't one.
Kreol La nan cho. T-Vice Jazz sa se pa sou bon mizik yo survive. They'll b just fine. I predict yap kontinye sousé Klass.
