Why this profile matters
"Long Spoon" matters. The track connects the historical Dominican band to the Bouyon Gwada scene through Bilix, the Guadeloupean artist behind "Sa Ka Débodé" 2016 and "On Plonge" 2017 with Tolly Boyz. The collaboration proves one thing: between Dominican Bouyon and Gwada Bouyon, you often imagine airtight borders — in reality they're porous, and Tazzy is one of the voices moving features between the two islands. Triple Kay also donated 30,000 dollars to Dominica's Education Fund, which adds institutional weight. The 2025 docuseries will tell whether Tazzy is pillar-vocalist or guest-vocalist depending on the periods.

Dominican Bouyon group
Triple Kay International
Triple Kay International is one of the major Dominican Bouyon bands of the 2000-2026 era. Founded in 2000 in Laudat village by Kenan Cadette, Kurt Rolle and Kendel "Killa" Laurent — the three K of the name — the band released its debut album "Big Ting" that same year. Twenty-five years later, it's grown into a family of nine musicians, nine albums, hundreds of songs and a live reputation that earned them the "Bouyon MVPs" nickname.

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.

WCK
In 1988, in a Grand Bay studio in Dominica, a band plugs in a TR-505 drum machine and invents a music genre without knowing it. Gordon Henderson's cadence-lypso, the jing ping played by elders on accordion and syak, the carnival lapo kabwit, the dancehall arriving through sound systems — everything runs through the same machine and the same keyboard. The result has a name: Bouyon. WCK — Windward Caribbean Kulture — lays the first brick with the "Work It Out (Bouyon Remix)" inside the "One More Sway" album of 1988. Two years later, "Culture Shock" installs the sound inside the Dominican carnival. The historical core: Derek "Rah" Peters on drums, Cornell "Fingers" Phillip on keyboards, Mr Delly on memory voice, Skinny Banton on the bouyon-muffin color.
