Les Jumeaux, comprised of twin brothers Diemson’n and Marckenson’n Fremont, are a Haitian musical duo that has made an indelible mark on the country’s music scene. Hailing from Petit-Goâve, a commune in Haiti’s West Department, the twins have been performing together since 2000. Now based in Port-au-Prince, their music has garnered a significant following, especially in Cap-Haïtien, where they are often mistakenly believed to be natives due to their large fan base there.
Musical Journey and Evolution
Their formal entry into the music industry began in 2012 with the release of their debut single, “Men Nimewo a,” featuring Haitian pop star Misty Jean. This marked the beginning of their career as recording artists. While they experienced a period of limited releases in the following years, Les Jumeaux made a triumphant return in 2024 with two powerful singles: “Si’m te kwaze’w avan!” featuring Dumano, and “Kenbe’l du” featuring LoiBeats. Released on September 7, 2024, both tracks were accompanied by visually captivating music videos that showcased the duo’s evolving artistry and modern sound.
The same day, they also released their self-titled album, “Les Jumeaux,” under B.E. Relations Publishing. This project highlighted their ability to blend traditional Haitian sounds with contemporary influences, reaffirming their position as trailblazers in the Haitian music scene.
Diverse Musical Repertoire
Known for their versatility, Les Jumeaux excel across various genres, including Compas, Rap, Afro, Gospel, R&B, Rabòday, and Zouk. Their catalog features a number of memorable tracks, such as “Se menm nou menm nan,” “Rete moun ou ye a,” and “Pran poz ou pa wè,” which not only entertain but also tackle profound societal issues, resonating deeply with their audience.
Additionally, the twins have made extraordinary contributions to the meringue carnavalesque tradition, boasting a repertoire of over a dozen carnival songs that have energized crowds and created unforgettable moments during Haiti’s vibrant carnival celebrations.
Inspiring Through Music
Les Jumeaux are more than just a musical duo. They embody a commitment to inspiring Haitians to believe in themselves and their capacity to achieve their dreams. Their journey and music serve as a testament to resilience, passion, and the power of art in addressing societal challenges.
Looking Ahead
As of January 2025, Les Jumeaux remain active in the Haitian music scene, with plans to release a new album later in the year. Their recent works, blending traditional rhythms with modern influences, continue to gain recognition both in Haiti and internationally, solidifying their legacy as cultural icons and innovators.
