WANGA NÈGÈS RECORDS 

Wanga Nègès, or the hummingbird, is a symbol of joy, playfulness, and adaptability. This tropical bird is also a powerful symbol of generosity and courage, as it takes major risks for the benefit of others.

At WANGA NÈGÉS RECORDS, our slogan is "Elevating Haitian and French-Caribbean artists to new heights", and we embody these values by providing a platform for talented artists to express themselves and connect with their audience.

As an imprint of Negre Marron Records, our parent label, we specialize in exclusively HAITIAN KOMPA INFUSED music.

Founded by René Guemps in 2023 and based in New York City, WANGA NÈGÉS RECORDS is committed to supporting independent Haitian artists by helping them find a record label in the US to represent and distribute their music via digital service providers like Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music.

We partner with Négresse Marron Distribution, a company that offers free distribution while taking a 20% commission on royalties. This ensures that artists and record labels keep all legal rights to their music.

To maintain the highest standards in the music industry, WANGA NÈGÉS RECORDS requires all music to be fully mixed and mastered before distribution.

Our focus on creativity, authenticity, and innovation sets us apart from other record labels.

Join us in celebrating the rich and vibrant culture of Haitian and French-Caribbean music with WANGA NÈGÉS RECORDS.
"I just discovered this amazing new Haitian KOMPA INFUSED artist on WANGA NÈGÈS RECORDS, they have such a unique sound!”

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
