Bouyon vocalist · Triple Kay International member

Sweet Ticky

In 2000, when Kendel "Killa" Laurent founded Triple Kay International in Laudat, Sweet Ticky was one of the singers he picked. Twenty-five years later, he's still there — a voice that holds on stage, a memory that tells the story. When you try to understand the Dominican Bouyon trajectory between the WCK golden age and the 2020s platform recognition, he's the one you talk to. He knows the bands, the Carnival anthems, the transitions.

Why this profile matters

At the start, Sweet Ticky sings alongside Benji and Tazzy. Five years later, in 2005, the band explodes with "Sewo" and sweeps Band of the Year and Song of the Year at the Flamboyant Awards 2005 — the double trophy that installs Triple Kay as the major Bouyon institution of Dominica. But Sweet Ticky isn't just a stage voice. Caribbean press introduces him as the band's historian, the one who tells the story. In 2025, when Triple Kay celebrates 25 years, he's still there. Stage voice and the voice that passes things on, across the long run.
