Harmonik "Jere'm"
by Wyclef Jean · 2008 · kompa · 6:01 · Haitian Creole, French
The source video credits Harmonik for “Jere'm,” although the catalog file currently places the recording under Wyclef Jean. The track dates to 2008, the year Harmonik released its debut album Jere'm, and its six-minute span has the room of a complete dance-band kompa performance. Keyboards, vocals, and romantic cadence come from the early period when Nickenson Prud'homme and Harmonik were defining a polished diaspora sound without losing the warmth of the bal. The visible credit matters here: this source presents Harmonik, so the performance is not attributed to Wyclef.
