Last year, Michael Brun launched his Bayo movement. Through this movement, he has been showcasing the amazing musical talents that exist in the Haitian culture, while focusing on Hip Hop, racine/roots, and his Haitian-EDM rhythm.

Haiti is a country that is extremely diverse in terms of music genres and rhythms. On the island, language is not a barrier for sonic enjoyment--people listen to all types of music from different culture and ethnicity.

When I was growing up in Haiti, I remember listening to even Chinese and Japanese music. That's the level of tolerance and diversity that exist in the Haitian culture.

Even when it comes to the Hip Hop movement, Haiti in a way paralleled the US. In 1982, The first Rap Kreyòl song, Vakans, was released by Master Dji. Although Hip Hop was not readily accepted by the old heads, Master Dji was able to diffuse the airwaves with the art form.

By mixing Hip Hop with Reggae and Konpa, Dji was able to create a new sound that the people accepted. He was very political and social, and his lyrics were deeply rooted and carried a message of unity and peace.

Similarly to Master Dji, Michael Brun and his musical partners are embarking in a journey that has been placing Haiti on the map. Master Dji was able to bring the Hip Hop culture to Haiti. Now Michael is projecting the musical values of Haiti to the world through his Haitian-EDM movement.

The Haitian-EDM groove is a mixture of Afro-Haitian roots, Reggae, Konpa, Zouk, and Latin music with Electronic Dance Music. This melange brings about the most amazing sound that someone can

In order to accomplish this mission, the Billboard artist has collaborated with Haitian artists/Groups such as Paul Beaubrun, Gary Girault, J.Perry, T-Micky, Baky Popile, Strong G, Annie Alert, Niska, Plezi Rara, and tons of other artists.

With his Bayo tour, Michael has been traveling across the world with the aim of allowing people all over to experience the sounds of Haiti. This June, Orlando, FL already got served with its Bayo platter. Tomorrow, NYC is next. Then, Montreal, Washington DC, and Boston are waiting in line for a taste.

With Big international Networks support such as Billboard, Netflix, Hot97, Telemundo, and Shade45 supporting Michael Brun, I foresee an amazing market value for this Haitian-EDM movement.

Haiti is a country that is tremendously vibrant, and we will continue to support Michael with his endeavors as KZ PROMO is operating at the same frequency and wavelength as DJ/Producer.

In short, The spirit of Master Dji is rejoicing with Michael Brun’s energy that is promoting the amazing talents of Haiti. Indeed, MIchael Brun's Haitian-EDM project is changing the course of the music history forever.
