Irdens Exantus

Le trait d’esprit vient de lui, Irdens Exantus, c’est « Celui-Dont-On-Ne-Sait-Pas-Prononcer-Le-Nom ». C’est aussi « Celui-Que-l’On-Voit-Partout », faut-il le dire. Guibord s’en va-t-en guerre au cinéma, Royal, Dix quatre et Rome au théâtre, Les Armes, Fragments, Sketches Kamikazes ! et Antigang à la télé, Pa t’mentir et La soirée Mammouth sur le web ; le Montréalais d’origine haïtienne n’est clairement pas du type procrastinateur. Le saxophoniste-pianiste-auteur-compositeur-interprète annonçait l’été avec un très chaud rap pop sur groove R&B un premier long jeu sous son vrai nom. « Montrer sa vraie nature ici c’est risqué, mais on n’a peur de rien ». Du prêt-à-danser.

The witticism comes from him, Irdens Exantus, he’s “He-Whose-Name-No-One-Knows-How-to-Pronounce.” He’s also “The-One-You-See-Everywhere,” needless to say. Guibord s’en va-t-en guerre on the big screen; Royal, Dix quatre and Rome on stage; Les Armes, Fragments, Sketches Kamikazes! and Antigang on television; Pa t’mentir and La soirée Mammouth online. The Montrealer of Haitian origin is clearly not the procrastinating type. The saxophonist-pianist-singer-songwriter ushered in summer with a fiery pop-rap on an R&B groove, his first full-length released under his real name. “Showing your true nature here is risky, but we’re not afraid of anything.” Dancefloor-ready.

Naïma Frank

Figure montante de la scène alt-R&B québécoise, l’autrice-compositrice-interprète montréalaise d’origine haïtienne Naïma Frank dévoilait en septembre « Royallll », une pièce audacieuse, dansante et lumineuse, premier extrait d’un album 18 ans et + attendu — et qui suscite la curiosité de par son audace à paraître en janvier 2026. Porté par des harmonies luxuriantes, une percussion chaude et une ligne de basse profonde et envoûtante, le titre, comme l’album, avance-t-on, célèbre les corps, les regards, la confiance et l’affirmation de soi sans compromis.

A rising figure on Quebec’s alt-R&B scene, Montreal-based singer-songwriter Naïma Frank, of Haitian descent, unveiled “Royallll” in September—an audacious, danceable and radiant track, the first single from an eagerly awaited 18+ album set to be released in January 2026. Driven by lush harmonies, warm percussion and a deep, hypnotic bass line, the song—like the album, it is said—celebrates bodies, gazes, confidence and uncompromising self-assertion.
