GRAMMY-winning Haitian DJ and producer Michaël Brun (@michaelbrun) returns with a star-studded cast of collaborators on his latest dancehall single “Touchdown.” The track features Colombian reggaeton icon J Balvin, legendary Jamaican dancehall superstars Beenie Man and Bounty Killer, as well as Jamaican singer-songwriter Tasan.

“Touchdown” is a cross-cultural hit in which Michaël Brun draws from his experiences growing up in Haiti, a place where he was immersed in many different sounds, to create a vibrant and celebratory record that’s reflective of his journey. On the track, the powerful vocals of Beenie Man and Bounty Killer are complemented by J Balvin’s smooth reggaeton flow and Tasan’s delicately sung tones, resulting in an expansive sound with the potential to be a global smash.

Dancehall has had a huge impact on Haitian music, with early Haitian rap taking inspiration from the ‘toasting’ style of Jamaican deejays. The song is a monumental moment for Michaël, who has always been inspired by dancehall and Jamaican culture and is truly honored to bring legends of the scene Beenie Man and Bounty Killer together on the same track.

Furthering his connection with the island and its musical history, Tasan is a frequent collaborator and also the daughter of legendary Jamaican singer Papa San – an artist who profoundly influenced the dancehall genre. Being one of the biggest reggaeton stars in the world, J Balvin also has a deep reverence for dancehall music and his inclusion on the track speaks to the influence that the genre has had on music worldwide.

With J Balvin being selected as the Monday Night Football Music Curator for the NFL 2024/2025 season, the song was used in promotional adverts for the recent Vikings versus Rams Wild Card Game.

“Touchdown” follows Michaël Brun’s previously released single “Safe,” a collaboration with John Legend and Rutshelle Guillaume – which was a track showing solidarity with Haitian immigrants in the US who were being targeted in the media.
