A Coeur Ouvert
by Nu-Look · 2019 · kompa, kompa-gouyad · 6:55 · French, Haitian Creole
À cœur ouvert — open-hearted, and open-heart. Nu-Look in the emotional kompa lane that made Arly Larivière's name, six minutes fifty-five, as an official audio released in June 2019 on a Topic channel. The French phrase carries both senses: speaking with nothing held back, and the surgery in which a chest is opened. The song does not choose between them, which is where the title gets its bite: speaking plainly to someone is a thing that can cost you.
