Le rappeur d’origine haïtienne Vox Sambou s’attaque à l’épidémie du SIDA dans son nouveau vidéo DiscriminaSida dont la chanson sera sur son deuxième album à paraître en 2010.  Vox Sambou, membre fondateur du super groupe Hip Hop polyglotte Nomadic Massive rappe en créole, espagnol, français et en anglais.

En conséquence, et pour illustrer l’universalité de la discrimination contre les gens vivant avec le SIDA, le vidéo est traduit en trois langues.

Le thème de la Journée mondiale contre le SIDA continue d’être le leadership pour 2009.   Ce thème interpelle tous les niveaux de la société à respecter les engagements pris en réponse au VIH/SIDA, et en particulier la promesse d’accès universel à la prévention, au traitement, aux soins et au soutien afin d’endiguer la discrimination associée au SIDA.

Selon Vox Sambou- « la discrimination contre les gens vivant avec le VIH/SIDA a sa source à plusieurs niveaux : le manque d’information sur la prévention; le manque de ressources surtout dans le département du Nord d’Haïti d’où je suis issu; le manque d’inclusion des gens atteints. » Les quelques 220000 orphelins haïtiens résultent directement de la discrimination autour de la maladie, l’incapacité de se faire traiter et la honte et l’ostracisme aux yeux de la société.

Le vidéo a été réalisé par  le dominicain Ariel Mota et tourné sur l’île de Kyskeya, aujourd’hui Santo Domingo, terre commune haïtienne et dominicaine.

Haitian-born rapper Vox Sambou tackles the issue of the AIDS epidemic in his new video DiscriminaSida. The song is featured on his upcoming second LP, scheduled for release in 2010. Vox Sambou, a founding member of multilingual Hip Hop super group Nomadic Massive raps in Creole, Spanish, English and French. Accordingly, as well as to highlight the universal plight that is discrimination against people living with AIDS, the video is translated in three languages.

The theme of World AIDS Day 2009 hinges around leadership: Stop AIDS, keep the promise. World leaders are asked to be accountable for the discriminatory discrepancy between the commitments that have been made to halt the spread of AIDS, and actions taken to follow them through.

According to Sambou-“the discrimination is many-fold. There is a lack of knowledge about prevention; lack of basic resources especially in the northern part of Haiti, where I’m from; lack of inclusion of the sick in the society”. The perverse effect of this discrimination is that around 220 000 Haïtian children are orphaned because their caretakers are sick, cannot get treated and are ashamed or ostracised from contributing to society.

The video was directed by Dominican filmmaker Ariel Mota and was shot on the island of Kyskeya, today Santo Domingo.

“Hip-hop is the foundation of what I do,” says Wyclef Jean, a man whose musical interests extend across virtually all genres – from hardcore rap to acoustic folk, from rock & roll to seething, rhythmic pop. “In high school I lived a double life. I was a jazz major, but if you talked to my friends in the street, they’d say, ‘Well, he was just a battle MC.’ And the hip-hop side of me is Toussaint.”
