Weelow
In 2012, Weelow (also known as Wee Low, possible identity Wilow Desirade) drops two singles on the Bouyon King / Label Bouyon Music label: "Ni Sa La" and "Frappéy". les plateformes streaming still holds them today — catalogue proof of the first hardcore Gwada wave. Le Courrier de Guadeloupe cites him in print with Gaza Girls and Doc J. The "Bouyon Hardcore 2k13" mix places him with Suppa, DJ Joe and Doc J as one of the five names of the era. Not a global pillar — his role is historical, anchored in the first Gwada wave — but without him, the Bouyon Gwada 2012 label infrastructure would not exist the way we read it today.

Why this profile matters
Weelow holds a specific place in the first Bouyon Gwada wave: he is one of the few artists of the era with a documented label catalogue. Bouyon King / Label Bouyon Music on consolidates his two 2012 singles "Ni Sa La" and "Frappéy" confirmed by les plateformes streaming. That is what sets him apart from a Doc J, whose catalogue presence runs mostly through featurings. The Wilow Desirade identity hint (cited by ) suggests an origin from La Désirade, the island east of Grande-Terre — a lead to cross-check, but which would tie him to a peripheral Guadeloupean zone, distinct from Les Abymes or Pointe-à-Pitre. Shazam keeps his artist profile. The "Bouyon Hardcore 2k13" Mixcloud mix (December 2013, 70 minutes at 155 BPM) tags him with Suppa, Gaza Girls, DJ Joe and Doc J — one of the most cited sources for fixing the identifiable names of the hardcore era. Without the international reach of an Asa Bantan or Mr Ridge, but with a first-rank role in the technical chain of his time.

SU
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.

Gaza Crew
In the early 2010s, when Suppa (Lincoln Robin) lands in Guadeloupe from Dominica, he does not just join Yellow Gaza. He founds his own collective: Gaza Crew. Not a clone, not a branch — a neighbouring entity, centred on him. For three years, this collective carries 160 BPM hardcore Bouyon with releases that stay in people's memory: the Vadore Concept SoundCloud trace in 2011, the Gaza Girls' "Sa Zot Vle" single the same year, the December 2012 Paris set in the diaspora. In 2013, Suppa dies. The collective stops, but its memory still feeds the entire contemporary Bouyon Gwada.
GA
Female Bouyon Gwada collective
Gaza Girls Crew
2010, Bouyon Gwada starts circulating between Dominica and Guadeloupe. Five women form Gaza Girls Crew: Kassidje (Jessica Petro), Gaza Izzy, La Barbie, DJ'Angel and Ghetto Princess. They ride at 160 BPM hardcore in a scene institutions are already trying to slow down — la presse dominicaine documents the tension in 2012. Distinct from Gaza Crew (Suppa's collective) and Yellow Gaza (Vador, DJ Joe, Asa Banton), they drop "Sa Zot Vle" on the Bouyon Concept label in 2011, then "A PA TAW" the same year. The December 2012 Paris set takes them into the diaspora. Bouyon's women are there more than ten years before the New Bouyon Wave.

Kassidje
December 31, 2011. Kassidje — real name Jessica Petro — drops "A PA TAW" featuring Doc J. One of the oldest catalogued Bouyon Gwada releases, and she's a woman, at 160 BPM, in a scene with no streaming platform yet. With Gaza Izzy, La Barbie, DJ'Angel and Ghetto Princess, she forms the core of Gaza Girls Crew — distinct from Gaza Crew (Suppa) and Yellow Gaza (Vador, DJ Joe, Asa Banton). Fifteen years later, she's back: "Deja Koke" with Gwada G drops in 2026 and places her back in the present. The bridge between the first hardcore wave and today's female generation.

DJ Joe
2007. Bouyon has just landed in Guadeloupe, and DJ Joe sets his decks on the first Yellow Gaza sets. With Vador and Asa Banton, he's one of the three who carry the 160 BPM hardcore sound from Dominica to Pointe-à-Pitre. In December 2012, he hits a Paris stage with Suppa and the Gaza Girls — one of the first times Bouyon Gwada steps outside the Caribbean. Ten years later, he drops "Bwé rhum" with Asa Bantan in 2023 and proves he never left the table.
DO
Bouyon artist · first Gwada wave
Doc J
December 31, 2011. Kassidje Gazagirl's "A PA TAW" single drops with Doc J as feature — one of the oldest catalogued Bouyon Gwada releases. And Doc J is already there. For six years, he becomes one of the male voices of the first hardcore wave with Suppa, DJ Joe and Weelow. His "doc-j-officiel" SoundCloud drops "WE LOVE BOUYON" with Kassidje in September 2012. Le Courrier de Guadeloupe cites him in print. The "Bouyon Hardcore 2k13" mix lists him among the five names defining the era. Not a global Bouyon name, but a pillar of Gwada hardcore memory.
YE
Bouyon Gwada collective
Yellow Gaza
Yellow Gaza is one of the pillar projects of Act II of Bouyon in Guadeloupe (2007-2013). Driven by Vador, DJ Joe and Asa Banton, the collective was the first stage bridge between Dominica and Guadeloupe: it opened the road for Gaza Girls, Suppa and the whole Guadeloupean generation that followed. Distinct from Gaza Crew (founded by Suppa), Yellow Gaza remains a founding trace in the Bouyon Gwada memory long before the platform era.

J2MO
J2MO has been producing Bouyon Gwada since 2009. A duo: J2mothebeatcooker who builds the beats, J2modj who spins them in clubs. When hardcore Bouyon settles at 160 BPM in Guadeloupe, his instrumentals are the ones Suppa, Gaza Girls, Asa Bantan and Miky Ding La use to ride. Bandcamp archives "The Story of J2MO" as the memory of that era. Ten years later, he's still dropping: "Gold Color Riddim" in 2021 reopens the post-COVID cycle, alongside D0 Production's "Hot Bouyon Riddim". Today, Aknose and 1T1 cite him in interviews as one of the technical foundations of the scene.
