Less than a month after his 46th birthday, Lénord Fortuné of Racine Mapou de Azor went the way of the ancestors. Our sincere condolences to his family, his friends, and the wide audience that will always treasure the man and the genius he so willingly gave.
News of his passing shook the ocean floor, sending tremors throughout the known world. Haitians and fans of Rasin Mizik mourn the transition of this Voice. Life may be ephemeral, but the art Azor produced is everlasting.
Haiti has lost another national treasure. Nou pèdi yon kokenn trezò. The roots of this Mapou run deep in the ground, however. In good or bad weather, they must sprout again. Somehow.
Rest in peace.
