Haitian singer and songwriter Zile, formerly known as Anie Alerte, has officially released her highly anticipated debut album Vwayaj. This deeply personal and emotionally rich project marks a new era in her creative journey and signals her commitment to starting fresh, on her own terms.
Available now on all major streaming platforms, Vwayaj is more than just a debut album. It is a powerful declaration of freedom and a symbol of survival following years of personal and professional challenges.
Vwayaj (meaning “journey” in Haitian Creole) delivers exactly what the title promises. The 13-track album walks listeners through heartbreak, betrayal, self-reclamation, and ultimately, strength. Zile taps into her own life experiences with refreshing vulnerability and emotional precision.
Prior to this release, Zile, previously known as Anie Alerte, enjoyed success lending her voice to various collaborative works and releasing multiple singles. But Vwayaj marks her first full-length studio album, an important milestone that stands as a testament to her perseverance.
For years, Anie Alerte’s name was entangled in public conflict with her former manager. From hacked music leaks to emotionally charged social media statements, the drama was as visible as her talent. She openly shared her experiences of betrayal, abuse, and professional sabotage. Despite fans’ initial support, her story became clouded by contradictions and public backlash that often overshadowed her artistry.
In 2023, her debut song under the Zile brand was leaked without her consent. She responded with a public statement, vowing legal action and asserting her right to protect her creative work. This incident, combined with a history of unresolved management disputes, painted a painful picture of an artist fighting to regain control over her name, her art, and her future.
While she previously struggled to find the right path forward, often choosing social media over legal recourse, it is clear that this album represents a shift. Zile is now steering her own course, channeling the pain of the past into a carefully crafted body of music.
She has embraced her rebirth with strength and intention. Joining forces with the Zile Band and stepping away from her past persona, she is no longer chasing closure, she is creating it.
Tracks like “Mal,” “Trayizon,” “Leave Me Alone,” and “Difisil” reflect the emotional toll of what she’s survived, while others like “Pa Enkyete W” and “Vwayaj” suggest she has finally found her voice and is using it unapologetically. The full tracklist includes: Difisil, Mwen Pa La Ankò, Mal, Trayizon, Kite Sa, Ou Fini Avè M, Pa Enkyete W, Pa Vini Ankò, Jwe Avè M, Leave Me Alone, Vwayaj, Nou Pa Mennen Menm Batay, and Ou Poko Pare.
Music videos for several of the singles are already generating buzz on YouTube, showing that Zile’s artistic vision extends beyond audio into powerful visuals. With clean direction, bold storytelling, and unwavering presence, she is reclaiming her narrative.
With Vwayaj now live, Zile is preparing for her upcoming “Far North” tour, scheduled for August 7 to 11. She plans to take the album directly to fans, bringing its emotional weight and creative energy to the stage.
Vwayaj is available now on Spotify, Apple Music, Audiomack, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music. Streaming links are available on her official pages.
Zile’s Vwayaj is not just an album, it is a personal emancipation. After enduring so much, it is refreshing to see her re-center herself in her artistry and open a new chapter with grace, power, and purpose. She is no longer explaining or defending, she is simply creating.
Chantè ayisyan Zile, ke anpil moun te konnen kòm Anie Alerte, lage premye albòm solo li ki gen tit Vwayaj. Se yon pwojè pèsonèl, chaje ak emosyon, ki make yon nouvo direksyon nan karyè li, epi ki montre li deside reprann kontwòl sou tèt li ak sou mizik li.
Vwayaj disponib sou tout gwo platfòm mizik dijital, e li plis pase yon albòm. Se yon deklarasyon endepandans, yon siy viktwa apre plizyè lane difikilte pèsonèl ak pwofesyonèl.
Mo “vwayaj” la pa mete nan tit albòm lan pa aza. Albòm sa rakonte tout etap yo: trayi, doulè, leve kanpe, ak viktwa. Albòm nan gen 13 mizik ki chak rakonte yon epizòd nan lavi Zile, avèk sansibilite ak lafòs.
Anvan lage albòm sa, Zile (Anie Alerte nan tan lontan) te deja fè tèt li konnen nan endistri a, gras ak vwa li ki te sou plizyè kolaborasyon epi plizyè single li te mete deyò. Men Vwayaj se premye albòm estidyo li, e li make yon etap enpòtan nan karyè li.
Pandan plizyè lane, non Anie Alerte te mele ak konfli piblik ki te fèt ak ansyen manadjè li. Gen mizik ki te sispann sòti, gen deklarasyon cho sou rezo sosyal, e gen akizasyon grav ki te mennen nan divizyon ant fanatik yo. Anie te pataje eksperyans li sou trayizon, abi mantal, e menm fizik. Li te denonse fason yo te eseye kraze non li ak talan li. Men, jan istwa a te dewoule te mete anpil konfizyon sou sa ki te vrèman ap pase.
Nan ane 2023, premye mizik li te prepare pou mete deyò anba non Zile te sòti san konsantman li. Li te pibliye yon deklarasyon kote li te di li pral pran tout mezi legal pou mete fen nan zak sa a, e li te fè tout fanatik li yo konnen li pa pral kite sa kraze li. Zak sa a, ansanm ak tout batay li te fè pou separe tèt li ak ansyen ekip li, montre jan li te mete tèt li pou defann dwa li ak kreyasyon li.
Malgre li te konn reponn sou rezo sosyal olye li te pran wout tribinal, albòm sa montre li chanje taktik. Zile pran wòl li kòm yon atis ak pi plis matirite, li mete doulè li nan mizik li olye li mete l nan pawòl sou entènèt.
Li rantre nan Zile Band pou li refè karyè li ak diyite. Li kite non li, sa li te bati pandan plizyè lane, men li pa kite esans li. Kounye a, li pa bezwen fè eskiz pou sa li ye. Li pa ap chèche fèmen chapit ansyen lavi li, li ekri yon nouvo istwa.
Mizik tankou “Mal,” “Trayizon,” “Leave Me Alone,” ak “Difisil” montre blesi li. Pandan mizik tankou “Pa Enkyete W” ak “Vwayaj” montre jan li rive jwenn lapè ak tèt li. Men lis tout chante ki sou albòm nan: Difisil, Mwen Pa La Ankò, Mal, Trayizon, Kite Sa, Ou Fini Avè M, Pa Enkyete W, Pa Vini Ankò, Jwe Avè M, Leave Me Alone, Vwayaj, Nou Pa Mennen Menm Batay, ak Ou Poko Pare.
Gen plizyè videyo ki deja mete sou YouTube pou kèk nan mizik sa yo, e yo deja ap jwenn bèl repons bò kote fanatik yo. Mizik li yo pa sèlman pale ak kè moun, yo montre imaj fò, istwa reyèl, epi yo mete Zile tounen nan sant mizik li.
Apre lansman Vwayaj, Zile ap prepare pou fè pwomosyon ak premye mini-tounè li ki rele “Far North Tour” ki pwograme soti 7 pou rive 11 out. Li pral rankontre ak fanatik li fas a fas, pataje emosyon albòm nan ak tout lanmou li mete ladan.
Ou ka koute Vwayaj sou Spotify, Apple Music, Audiomack, YouTube Music, ak Amazon Music. Tout lyen yo disponib sou paj ofisyèl li.
Vwayaj se pa sèlman yon albòm, se libète li. Apre tout sa li pase, li bèl pou nou wè li retounen mete tèt li kòm poto mitan atizay li, epi ouvè yon nouvo chemen ak kouraj, klète, ak respè pou tèt li. Zile pa bezwen eksplike anyen ankò, li jis ap kreye.
