Jean is in Port-au-Prince to promote the work of his non-profit organization, Yele Haiti Foundation. He says he`s past the failed bid for the Presidency and is instead focused on making music, which has helped to put him `in a better place` after the abrupt end of his campaign.
At present, he says, he`s working on a new album for Sony, `HBA: Haitian by Association,` according to AFP.
Jean, according to the Agency France Presse, still blames Haitian President Rene Preval for his failed bid. He claims Preval stacked the electoral council with supporters of his Unity party to hold on to power.
`When the law doesn`t work for you, you change it,` the singer was quoted as saying of Preval`s approach. `Since everything I predict, through music and lyrics, it all comes true. The reign of a king is but for so long. The reign of a tyrant is limited.`
