Michel Martelly

Michel Martelly, better known by his stage name Sweet Micky, is a Haitian musician and former president of Haiti (2011–2016) who left a lasting mark on the compas music scene. Starting his career in the 1980s, Sweet Micky became famous for his energetic live performances, cheeky humor, and genre-blending style that mixed traditional Haitian rhythms with pop, zouk, and dancehall influences. His music often pushed boundaries with playful, satirical lyrics, making him both a polarizing and beloved figure in Haitian culture. After his political career, he revived his musical legacy with digitally remastered reissues of classic albums like *Live Au Zenith* and *Tòtòt*, along with anthologies celebrating his hits. Tracks like *Aloufa* and *Mèt Ke* remain staples in his catalog, showcasing his knack for catchy hooks and party-ready grooves. While his presidency drew global attention, fans still groove to Sweet Micky’s music for its irreverent charm and undeniable dancefloor energy.
