Loud Music in Haiti : People in the streets play their music so LOUD the world can hear...

There is a LOUD music phenomenon in Haiti, at least the city where I live. All day long, young men particularly walk around with a radio boombox and they play their music so loud the world can hear...

KREYOL: Haiti Nuisance : Moun yo jwe mizik tèlman fò nan lari a Donald TRUMP ka tande jis kote li ye a... Chak ti brendjen gen yon boombox nan lari a epi y ap vide bòdègèt nan lestomak ou tout lajounen tout lannwit... Men madan papa!!! Ala koze mesye!!!

The days of the walkman is over, now everyone in the neighborhood is a walking sound truck!

It's 6:30am and already 5 or 6 of them went by my house all playing their "bodègèt" Mixtapes. Then don't care care who is awake or who is sleeping.

By 7:30am, the man in the "gerit" down the street will blast his boombox all day until 10:00pm. He plays this song "Yo Pa Vle Wè Mwen Di Yo M Prale" so much, I hate it now!

The Taxi Motos do it too...

Sometimes the taxi moto man will come with his Haojin Motorcycle and park it right in front of your house blasting his "madan papa" and "bodègèt" songs and there's nothing you can do about it...

Lari a se salon pèp la!!!

Oh wow! Haitians love their liberty boy, and they don't care who is bothered by it.
