Genre-bending singer-songwriter Miu Haiti draws her eclectic musical influences from Pop and R&B with a Hip-Hop edge. She was born and raised in Haiti but is now based in the United States. Music has always been in her blood, being the daughter of a saxophonist. Miu Haiti is a renaissance woman – her versatile artistic expression is influenced by her love of fashion, makeup artistry, performing arts, and interior design. Moreover, her ability to compose music and sing in various languages (English, Creole, French, and Spanish) allows the artist to connect with a global audience and has driven collaborations with arrangers, talents, and artists from Saint Lucia, Puerto Rico, Tanzania, United States, Canada, France, and Haiti.
As winter comes to a close, Miu Haiti has kicked off the month of March with a new single, “Is This Love,” accompanied by a music video. Demonstrating her versatility and putting her vocal range to the forefront, the track provides a change of pace from her previous releases, “Real Ones” and “In ‘Em Face,” which collectively amassed about 200,000 streams and views.
“Is This Love” is fairly self-explanatory through its title; however, matters of the heart are rarely that simple. Miu Haiti dives deep into the raw emotion of love and the pragmatic idea of love. She perfectly depicts the complex feelings and thoughts that come after the honeymoon phase of a relationship. “When you’re dating someone that you really like who is playing all the right cards, you are subjected to many feelings.” Miu Haiti continues, “The initial curiosity, lust, and infatuation soon give way to admiration, and one seeks to break away from this bewitchment to ponder, in a state of confusion: ‘Is this love?'”
Her booming, sultry voice compliments the eclectic Pop and R&B/Soul ballad well. Not only does she wow listeners from a vocal performance perspective, but she also must be given credit for her penmanship in “Is This Love.” From the catchy chorus to the melodious harmonies, Miu Haiti showcases her songwriting prowess.
Miu Haiti’s previous single, “Real Ones,” was self-produced, but for “Is This Love,” she reunited with Haitian producer Nice Beat (Andy Irwin Charles). She enlisted her former tourmate, Zach Hughes, to mix the masterpiece. The simple yet captivating music video was the artistic vision of Canadian artistic director Ralph Leroy. His vision was carried out by videographer Ryan J. Ardito. The music video was filmed in Purfek TV’s studio, and video director Storm provided additional directorial guidance and was the final piece of the international dream team that Miu Haiti assembled. The sensual, serene visual encapsulates the fluttering feelings expressed within the track and fits the overarching theme of the record.
“Is This Love,” shows yet a different side of the multifaceted talent and gives fans a taste of the quality and masterfulness that can be expected from her upcoming EP slated to drop later this year.
