Kita Nago
by Carimi · 2009 · kompa · 4:50 · Haitian Creole, French
“Kita Nago” carries a name heavy with memory in Haitian speech. Carimi places it on the 2009 album Buzz across four minutes and fifty seconds of kompa. The band — Carlo Vieux, Richard Cavé and Mickael Guirand — formed in 2001, part of a generation moving kompa forward with modern writing without breaking from tradition. The title does not explain itself: it calls something, and the music gives that name a body.
