Bouyon artist
Le Jèm'ss — real name Jeremy Racine — is a French Antilles artist and songwriter (Martinique per, his network spreads across the whole FWI zone). He works Shatta, Kompa, Dancehall and Bouyon. On the Bouyon Gwada side, he features with 1T1, Ti Couby, Aknose, YSN and Litleboy. His entry into the scene comes through "Sa Pa Normal" with Litleboy in July 2023.
Le Jèm'ss starts music at 18 with support from his cousin DJ Livio, plus BOSSLA as a first mentor. His breakthrough comes through his collaboration with the group TKD from 2022, which broadens his audience. On the Bouyon side, he drops "Sa Pa Normal" with Litleboy in July 2023 — first feature plugging him into the Dominica-Guadeloupe Bouyon scene. In 2024 he releases "Je te veux que pour moi" with Ti Couby. In 2025, two major features: "Bubble" with 1T1, Ti Couby and Natoxie (Ti Couby Record label, November 2025), then "La Manigance" with Aknose, YSN and a wider Guadeloupe collective. In 2026, "Tiki Taka" with YSN and DJ Sebb. His 2025-2026 discography shows dense output (EP "Sha'Pa Style" with Mikado in November 2025, "BusinessGyal" and "Ping Pong" in March 2026), with one foot in French Antilles Shatta-Kompa and another in Gwada Bouyon via Ti Couby and Aknose.

1T1 — real name Terry Baptiste — is the voice-producer behind much of the Guadeloupean New Bouyon Wave. Guadeloupean father, Guyanese mother. At age 3, his uncle Thierry Cham introduces him to gwoka. Ten years on percussion, a production school in France, then keyboard self-taught on YouTube. His single "Bouwéy" feat. Theomaa is certified gold, crosses 18 million views on YouTube and is nominated at the 2026 Flammes Awards in the Caribbean song category. The CHORD album drops in December 2024, and he follows up in 2026 with the single "In Di Corner" feat. MiiMii KDS.

In 2024, Ti Couby drops "Je te veux que pour moi" with Le Jèm'ss. The next year, he follows up with "Bubble" 2025 (Ti Couby x Le Jèm'ss x 1T1 x Natoxie, ). Two pieces that place him in the 1T1 / Le Jèm'ss circle. But the 2026 internal registry keeps a caveat: his profile leans Reggae more than central Bouyon. New Bouyon Wave periphery rather than pillar — the distinction is deliberate and kept.
Bouyon artist
Aknose (Gaël) is a central voice of the New Bouyon Wave, from Les Abymes in Guadeloupe. He moved from dancehall to Bouyon through his cousin Vador and a conceptual click — framing Bouyon as the Caribbean equivalent of Ibiza-style techno (same BPM, same cardio) — federating the scene from the MJC des Abymes, where several hits of the new generation are composed.
Beatmaker · composer
YSN — real name Nicolas Lanclume — is a Guadeloupean beatmaker and composer. Since 2024, his name keeps coming back on the releases that shape the New Bouyon Wave: "Manawa" with Aknose in 2024, then in 2025 "Pran On Pyé" with 1T1, Le Juh and Qwann, "Matcha" and "Palabras" with Aknose. And in 2026, "Move" brings 1T1, Aknose, Le Juh, Theomaa and Qwann around him — proof that he's become one of the producers the new generation lays their vocals on.

Little Boy — also spelled Litleboy or Lil Boy depending on platforms — is one of the central voices of late-2020s Dominican Bouyon-Soca. In 2021, he features on Reo's "Dou dou", his first platform link. Then everything speeds up: between 2024 and 2026, his name appears on roughly twenty releases, most often with Quan, Trilla G, Freddy, Trixx, Gwada G or DJ Taffy. The peak: "Someone Else" with Quan and Trilla G wins Soca Collaboration of the Year at the 2025 Caribbean Music Awards.
