Bouyon artist · Gaza Crew founder

Suppa

On November 16, 2011, Suppa uploads "I Don't Kow" to the Vadore Concept SoundCloud. Nobody knows it yet, but it's one of the very first public audio traces of Bouyon Gwada that survives today. Lincoln Robin by his real name, Suppa is Dominican-born, Guadeloupe-based, and he carries the lead voice of the first wave (Act II). He founds Gaza Crew, crosses the Atlantic to Paris in December 2012, and keeps circulating across the European scene through 2013. That same year, he is killed in Guadeloupe. The scene loses its central singer barely 25 years old.

Why this profile matters

His death in 2013 changes everything for Gwada Bouyon. The first wave's lead singer is gone, and Asa Banton ends up carrying the Dominica-to-Guadeloupe link for the decade that follows. Around him inside Gaza Crew: Vador who lays the foundations in 2007 with Vadore Concept, J2MO behind the beats, Weelow who pushes the releases and runs the parties. Not to confuse with the Yellow Gaza collective (same era, different members) or with Gaza Girls Crew, the female collective born from Gaza Crew which drops "Sa Zot Vle" in 2011 and "Volé Nonm A Moun" in 2013. Ten years later, the New Bouyon Wave — 1T1, TIITII NBA, Aknose, DJ Softee — emerges in the space he left empty.
