Jean Michel Daudier

The loss of Jean Michel Daudier, who recorded his songs not only in French and English, but in the native Creole, should be a great one if his contributions to the prevalent cause of the time, the tyrannical reign of Baby Doc, were to be quantified. He found fame that he could not claim when his 1986 recording, 'Lem pa we soley la' became a sort of anthem for three generations, and his other works were recorded in a 1997 book entitled, 'A day for the Hunter, A Day for the Prey'
