Bouyon artist

Edday

Edday — real name Eddy Vanerot — is one of the solo voices of the Gwada Bouyon transition. As early as 2019, he dropped "Ouu La La" with Reo and "Ti KoKa" with Bilix, LaRose and VJ Ben — two singles that anchored the transition. Six years later, "You Mad" 2025 with Reo, DJ Luchshiy and Jixels confirms he's still part of the chain linking the pre and post New Bouyon Wave eras.

Why this profile matters

In 2019, when Edday dropped "Ouu La La" with Reo then "Ti KoKa" with Bilix, LaRose and VJ Ben, the Bouyon Gwada transition was in full reshuffle. While other voices of the era moved into collectives, he built his network differently: through curated collaborations. Reo in 2019, LeStef KJF after that, then DJ Luchshiy later on. That logic of targeted connections is what makes his path interesting: he appears on very different singles ("Ouu La La" 2019 with Reo, "Ti KoKa" 2019 with Bilix and VJ Ben, "You Mad" 2025 with DJ Luchshiy and Jixels) without ever locking himself into one crew. Six years after his first singles, he's still here.

Verified timeline

  1. Ouu La La with Reo and Ti KoKa with Bilix place him in the transition.

  2. You Mad with Reo, DJ Luchshiy and Jixels links the transition to the platform wave.

Bouyon artist

Bilix

Bilix — real name Franck Offranc, born 1988 in Anse-Bertrand — discovered music as a child through the Ka, Guadeloupe's traditional drum. He drops "Bodé Apiyé" in 2011 when Bouyon Gwada has no name yet. Five years later, in January 2016, "Sa Ka Débodé" with Mr Boka on a DJ Weez composition becomes one of the hits restarting the scene after Suppa's death. In 2025, his feature on "Long Spoon" with Triple Kay International plugs him straight into the Dominican live scene — a rare crossing for a Guadeloupean artist.

LaRose

2019, LaRose rides "Ti KoKa" with Bilix, VJ Ben and Edday — his entry into the Bouyon Gwada relaunch. Three years later, he follows up with "I Like Woman" in 2022 (Edday, Kevni, Reo). His catalog spans six years and gradually shifts toward the New Bouyon Wave: in 2024, "Gwadloup cho" with Aknose, Kevni and a whole collective, then "Lè an pa siw ou si mwen" direct with Aknose. In 2025, "Call Me" with DJ Luchshiy locks him into today's NBW. A clear bridge between the relaunch and the new wave.

VJ Ben

VJ Ben has been spinning as a DJ since 2013, but in 2021 his production work shifts into high gear. When he produces "Je l'ai vu" with HollyG and Arendi, he lays down the beat that opens the post-COVID Bouyon Gwada cycle — the window that directly paves the way for the 2023 New Bouyon Wave. Two years earlier, he was already credited as producer on "Ti KoKa" 2019 with Bilix, LaRose and Edday. The "Charles V Remix" 2023 relaunches the track on the platform chain. A pivot producer, not a global pillar — but the New Bouyon Wave was built on his beats.

DJ Luchshiy

DJ Luchshiy, born in 1996 in Guadeloupe, builds the beats that connect both islands. In 2021, his feature with Mr Ridge on "Je T'aime Dayleeway" plugs him into Dominica early. Two years later, "KKM" with Aknose locks him in as a recurring New Bouyon Wave Gwada producer. Today his catalog runs through Aknose, TIITII NBA, Edday, Lestef KJF Boyz, Lucky Lukee, MiiMii KDS, Reo, Jixels and Mr Ridge — one of the few directly linking Guadeloupean production to Dominican voices.

Jixels — real name Jonathan Elusca, from Guadeloupe — is at the same time an artist, beatmaker and musician. From 2024, his name starts showing up regularly in the credits with "WIFI Freestyle" and "Adios Amigos". In 2025, "Nouveau La" with BRG Hollywood plugs him into Saint-Martin. In 2026, "Jéré Sa" with DJ Softee, Edday, DJ Boko and YSN locks his place. His catalog runs through Reo, DJ Luchshiy, LeJuh, Aknose, Luky Lukee, Shanika and Edday.

DJ Softee

DJ Softee — real name Julian White — is one of the eight voices who officially name the New Bouyon Wave in September 2023 with "New Bouyon Wave #1". Alongside him: 1T1, TIITII NBA, Aknose, Nils, Luky Lukee, Le Juh and Theomaa. But he doesn't just sing. DJ, composer, singer — he builds "KPT" with TIITII NBA in 2024, signs the collective EP "Chodong Route Empire C.R.E" in 2025, and co-builds the platform Warm Up core with TIITII NBA and DJ Dirtee. One of the few to juggle the three roles without favoring one.
