ArtistRack brings to you ‘Tha vodou’ by Mayaya
just wrote the song for Afrofest and wanted something to show the different sides of
My nationality but mainly
My spiritual connection with Haiti
The artwork has the symbol for the vodou loa (god) erzuli Freda who was rumoured to be mixed and super light skinned and the god of love and beauty and she loves cutesy stuff and was known to be highly sensitive and super romantic so I resonate with her a lot
I also slipped a chant in there that is literally used to summon her and my second verse starts with me asking her to sing through me
Otherwise the song is introductory it’s just me flexing who I am I mention I’m Canadian I’m American I got
Swag from Haiti I’m from Nova Scotia but my
Heart is in Montreal which is where I was born and my family lives
