Nomadic Massive's hip hop gift to Haiti
Montreal hip-hop ensemble Nomadic Massive has come into focus for many in the city searching for a cultural expression of solidarity with Haitian earthquake victims.
Montreal is home to the largest Haitian diaspora population in Canada. A city-wide wave of artistic solidarity with Haiti was mobilized in the hours after the quake hit; hundreds of artists and cultural workers have taken to stages and to the airwaves appealing for people to support relief efforts.
Among them was Nomadic Massive, who launched Artists for Haiti, aiming to extend the current outpouring of support towards long-term solidarity projects led by artists focused on Haiti.
