This music video is a classic. On the surface, this is a typical Haitian music video about dancing in a beautiful Haitian beach. But the images are much deeper than that. Combination of a beautiful island located in the Caribbean, its gorgeous beaches, the spectacular sunshine only found in the Caribbean, mixed with a pure Haitian beauty while listening to that exotic Konpa music; the result is paradise on earth, which is what Ti Nes Salvant so eloquently described in this Music video.
