Djakout Mizik
Djakout Mizik is a Haitian compas band that helped popularize a new electronic section of the compas genre called nouvelle génération. The band drew inspiration from earlier compas music artists like System Band and Tabou Combo.
On New Year's Eve 2007, they performed with Wyclef Jean on MTV, which was their first exposure on a nationally televised American network. In 2010, Djakout Mizik divided into two distinct bands; one retained the original name "Djakout Mizik", with the second band taking the name "Djakout #1".
