Prince of the Port or P.O.P for short, is reppin for all of the Haitian people on this one. Sporting his Blue and Red as well as speaking some native tongue, P.O.P has made a cultural classic. I think that this record has a feel good vibe and is easy to enjoy even if your aren’t Haitian.

I met P.O.P for the first time at a Potent TV party and recently caught up with him again at a video shoot for a mutual friend. As we talked about his music and where he felt he wanted to be in the future, I was impressed. He not only seemed to have a passion for Hip-Hop but for all music. “I grew up listening to calypso, kompa, and country-western music,” he said. I think it’s great for artists to take in their own culture and mix it with Hip-Hop. Who said blue and red don’t look good together…
