Danola
kompa
Danola Antoine, known as Danola, is a Haitian singer from the capital who emerged as a soft, controlled, modern voice. Le Nouvelliste introduced her in 2019 as the voice of 'Premye Fwa', after listeners first noticed her on Niska Garoute's Enèji album through the song 'Pitit tè a'.
'Premye Fwa' became her real solo entry point: a love song centered on vulnerability, clear vocals, and Creole-pop melody. Juno7 later noted that 'Black Bird' confirmed her depth, while her collaboration with Roody Roodboy on 'Me Luv The Way' gave her another strong HMI moment.
Danola matters because she shows how a new generation of Haitian female voices can enter the market without a huge industry machine behind them. 'Si Demen', 'Premye Fwa', and collaborations with Wendyyy place her between kompa-pop, R&B, rap kreyol, and emotional writing aimed at a young audience.
