Build a playlist that feels like a conversation

Choose a question before a sequence

A playlist becomes more personal when it begins with a question. What does home sound like to you? What song makes you think about a different future? Which title would you send to someone learning about Haiti for the first time?

The SoleyHayti catalog offers themes of land, courage, memory and belonging. Use those themes to choose a few releases instead of trying to include everything at once. The aim is to invite attention, not to test someone’s knowledge.

Let generations answer differently

Ask each listener to choose a song and offer one sentence about it. A younger listener may begin with a rhythm; another person may hear a phrase that recalls a family conversation. Neither response needs to stand for an entire generation or diaspora.

Keep the official artist and album links in your notes. When sharing on a social platform, add the title, a short personal introduction and a relevant tag such as #HaitianKonpa or #SoleyHayti. Avoid unrelated tags that promise an experience the music does not offer.

Give people a next step

After a shared listen, open the lyric excerpts or choose one cultural story to read together. Invite people to save the artist on their preferred music service so they can return independently. Listening should remain open to people who do not want to join an email list.

For a community session or cultural proposal, contact Soleil Haiti with your idea and audience. The project can consider the request directly; the website does not announce unconfirmed events or promise access to licensing rights.

Let Soleil Haiti be the starting point for a playlist that carries a little of Haiti into a new conversation.
