Wyclef Jean is one of the people that are working to provide to the public his feelings through his songs. Throughout his career, he never forgot his roots and where he came from, his country that he still consider to be "the pearl of the West Indies". Jean is one of the person that will be happy to see its developing. His dream is to see Haitian music become international and sang by many people. For all that reason, this artist decided to do for Haiti what Bob Marley did for Jamaica in his days.
Wyclef was in Haiti on October 17,1972. He traveled to United States with his family. During his teenage years, Jean formed a group known as the Fugees with his classmate: Lauryn Hill and his cousin: Prakazrel Michel. As things between them do not work well, the artist started a solo career. He released his first album entitled: the carnival that allow him to introduce himself to the musical world. As optimist man, he released four others album.
Wyclef presented Sak pase: Welcome to Haiti. In that album, he made the world meet a new version of his songs, his Caribbean roots. Since most of the songs are written in his native language: Haitian Creole. The artist invited the world to appreciate the wealth of the music of his island. Throughout his career, he has helped many Haitian artists, among them: the group T-vice and the artist Black Alex to these he gave all his support, helped them to improve their talent and become international artists as himself. Thanks to the famous artist, a Haitian music group was lucky to perform on MTV. It is always a pleasure for him to talk about his country, how he loves his nation and the dreams he has for the development of his poor country. In his songs, Jean tries always something in his language. Trough his work, Wyclef gave Haitian people a sense of worth urged them to work in order to move forward. Not always he worked in the music branch, the famous artist tried to give his help to the country in everything he feels that he can do. Wyclef is one of the people that is proud of his pearl of the West Indies and never feels ashamed about what occurs, but he always tries to look for a solution.
That man showed his attraction to his poor state by creating a foundation called Yele Haiti; an organization that furnish assistance to Haiti to assure the destiny of the children; those who do not have family and live in the street. Who has been abandoned and those who their parents cannot offer the opportunity to go school became someone in the society. As this philanthropist being knows that youngster is the future of a country, Wyclef is determined to give them the accommodation that they need, also, the chance to participate to an educational institution. His purpose is to present with all the attention that they deserve and make them realize their dreams. He also taught these young people to appreciate their culture because in his opinion: the arts and culture are a significant resource that must be taken into the mainstream of the advance of this struggling nation. He organized many concerts to collect capital in order to maintain active this labor.
If there are a lot of person than this super man in the world, I think that there will no misery anywhere, no discrimination about some culture. He is so proud of himself and his roots including his music. Aid his compatriot and extend the industry Haitian music become one of his obsession. The dreams of all Haitian as well as this celebrated is to make a new version of the Haitian music and expand it all over the world so that everybody can appreciate the Haitian talent and valorize a new style. As he still working in that with passion, his wish will turn into reality one day.
