Haitian music star Widler Octavius, better known as WID, sent social media into a frenzy on Sunday, July 20, after posting a cryptic message aimed at an unnamed individual. While he never mentioned names, fans and industry insiders were quick to connect the dots. The message, dripping with accusations and thinly veiled threats, is widely believed to be directed at his former manager and record label, Biggy Records, owned by husband-and-wife duo Alner and Marie Auguste.
In his fiery message, WID didn’t hold back, directly addressing a woman, presumably Marie Auguste, accusing her of greed, betrayal, and underhanded tactics. “You think you own the earth. All you’ve done isn’t enough, all that I’ve worked so hard for, day and night without rest, you took it, and I still said nothing… You just made a huge mistake, sista. You don’t need to hide behind your husband to do dirty work,” he wrote. Could it be the lyrics to a new song, or is this simply WID airing out his frustrations? The post immediately sparked speculation, and the comments section became a playground of assumptions, with fans dissecting every line.
WID’s career began its rise in 2015 when he joined the iconic Haitian band Zenglen, debuting on the album Rezilta Pi Red. With hits like Sincerely Yours and Swetel Danse, WID’s voice quickly became a fan favorite. However, by July 2020, he parted ways with Zenglen, citing disputes with management and claiming he gained little from his time with the band.
Shortly after his departure, WID signed with Biggy Records, which offered not only management but also a record label deal. With Biggy’s backing, WID launched several singles that earned solid attention in the Haitian Music Industry (HMI). Along with his musical success came a new image, expensive cars, designer clothes, flashy jewelry, and luxury vacations. WID himself once admitted he felt more confident and comfortable as an artist under Biggy’s wing than ever before.
But as is often the case in the HMI, the glitz didn’t tell the whole story. For months, whispers circulated through podcasts and blogs about tension between WID and Biggy Records. Some even hinted at marital problems between Alner and Marie Auguste, allegedly fueled by the singer’s close relationship with Marie. While rumors of a personal relationship between WID and Marie remain unverified, the chatter was loud enough to spark controversy among fans.
According to sources close to the situation, Biggy Records invested more than $750,000 in WID’s career, a figure that now seems to be at the heart of the dispute. In May of this year, WID released a press statement confirming that he was no longer with the label. Soon after, his photos and promotional materials were wiped from Biggy’s social media accounts, and WID himself erased any trace of the label from his own platforms.
WID’s recent post appears to be his first public shot fired since the breakup. His words suggest not just a personal falling out but possible legal and financial battles brewing. His warning, “I’m going there with you,” feels less like a metaphor and more like a promise of retaliation, possibly hinting at lawsuits, public revelations, or both.
Biggy Records has yet to issue any official statement, but given WID’s public accusations, it’s hard to imagine the Augustes staying silent for long.
For all his talent, WID’s career now hangs in a delicate balance. While he still commands a loyal fan base, thanks to hits like Sincerely Yours, the combination of legal drama, contract disputes, and explosive rumors could overshadow his music. On the flip side, controversy in the HMI often fuels interest, and this scandal could give him the spotlight he needs to stage a major comeback.
With emotions running high and his pen clearly sharp, fans are already speculating that WID’s viral letter could inspire his next big track. Many believe that the fiery language, cutting accusations, and raw emotion read like the first draft of a powerful ballad or diss track. Considering how the HMI thrives on real-life drama being turned into music, this feud might just give WID the personal hit song he’s been waiting for. If he channels all this chaos into lyrics, Biggy Records might regret giving him the inspiration for his next career-defining anthem.
What started as a promising partnership between WID and Biggy Records has now morphed into a bitter feud. If the $750,000 investment rumors are true, Biggy might be preparing to recoup its losses, while WID appears ready to defend his reputation, and what he believes is rightfully his.
This is one drama that’s just heating up, and the HMI is watching closely. Don’t be surprised if this public fallout turns into a chart-topping single, because, as WID just proved, heartbreak and betrayal make the best music.

Eto mizik ayisyen Widler Octavius, ke tout moun konnen kòm WID, te fè rezo sosyal yo tranble dimanch 20 Jiyè a lè li pibliye yon mesaj kache ki t ap vize yon moun li pa t site. Malgre li pa janm di non moun nan, fanatik yo ak moun nan endistri a te rapid konekte pwen yo. Mesaj la ki plen ak akizasyon ak menas byen kouvri, anpil moun kwè li vize ansyen manadjè li ak label Biggy Records, ki se pwopriyete mari ak madanm Alner ak Marie Auguste.
Nan mesaj dife li a, WID pa t kenbe anyen, li dirèkteman adrese yon fanm, anpil moun kwè se Marie Auguste, li akize l de avaris, trayizon ak konpòtman malonèt. “Ou panse ou mèt tè a. Tout sa ou fè yo pa sifi, tout sa m te travay di lajounen kou lannuit san pran souf, ou pran yo, e mwen pa t di anyen… Ou fè yon gwo erè, sista. Ou pa bezwen kache dèyè mari ou pou fè move zak,” li ekri. Èske sa kapab se pawòl yon nouvo mizik oswa èske se jis WID k ap lage kòlè li? Mesaj la imedyatman te kreye anpil espekilasyon, ak seksyon kòmantè a tounen yon kote fanatik yo ap fouye chak fraz.
WID te kòmanse fè non li nan 2015 lè li te rantre nan gwoup ayisyen Zenglen, ak premye aparisyon li sou album Rezilta Pi Red. Avèk siksè tankou Sincerely Yours ak Swetel Danse, vwa WID te vin tounen youn nan pi renmen pami fanatik yo. Men, nan Jiyè 2020, li te separe ak Zenglen, li te pale de konfli ak jesyon e li te deklare li pa t benefisye anpil nan eksperyans sa a.
Imedyatman apre depa li, WID te siyen ak Biggy Records, ki te ofri l pa sèlman jesyon men tou yon kontra label. Avèk sipò Biggy, WID te lage plizyè single ki te fè yon bèl enpak nan endistri mizik ayisyen an (HMI). Ansanm ak siksè mizikal li, li te adopte yon nouvo imaj, machin chè, rad designer, bijou briyan, ak vakans de liks. WID te menm admèt li pa t janm santi l tèlman konfòtab kòm yon atis avan li te rantre ak Biggy.
Men jan sa rive souvan nan HMI, bèl aparans yo pa t rakonte tout istwa a. Depi kèk mwa, rimè ap sikile nan podcast ak blog sou tansyon ant WID ak Biggy Records. Gen moun ki menm te bay endis sou pwoblèm nan maryaj Alner ak Marie Auguste, e yo te di relasyon sere ant WID ak Marie te ka rezon an. Menm si rimè sou yon relasyon pèsonèl ant WID ak Marie pa janm konfime, pale yo t ap fè ase bri pou kreye konfizyon pami fanatik yo.
Dapre sous ki pre dosye a, Biggy Records te envesti plis pase $750,000 nan karyè WID, yon chif ki sanble se kè konfli a kounya. Nan mwa Me ane sa a, WID te lage yon nòt pou laprès pou konfime li pa t ankò ak label la. Byen vit, tout foto ak materyèl pwomosyon li te efase sou paj Biggy a, epi WID menm te retire tout tras label la sou rezo sosyal li.
Dènye mesaj WID a sanble se premye kout pwen piblik li depi separasyon an. Pawòl li yo montre pa sèlman yon move relasyon pèsonèl men posib konfli legal ak finansye k ap vini. Avètisman li, “M ap ale kote ou ye a avè w,” pa sanble yon metafò ditou, men plis tankou yon pwomès revanch, petèt ak pwosè, revelasyon piblik, oswa toulede.
Jiska prezan, Biggy Records poko fè okenn deklarasyon ofisyèl, men avèk akizasyon piblik WID yo, li difisil pou panse koup Auguste a ap rete an silans lontan.
Malgre talan li, karyè WID kounya sou yon liy fen. Pandan li toujou gen yon gwo baz fanatik, gras ak siksè tankou Sincerely Yours, melanj dram legal, konfli kontra ak rimè ka fè mizik li pase nan dèyè. Men nan yon lòt bò, konfli nan HMI souvan konn mete yon atis plis nan limyè, e eskandal sa a ka menm vin bay WID opòtinite pou l fè yon gwo retou.
Avèk tout emosyon l ap viv yo ak talan l pou ekri, gen anpil fanatik k ap deja imajine l ap fè pwochen gwo mizik li sou istwa sa a. Gen anpil moun ki panse pawòl dife sa yo, akizasyon ak emosyon yo, sanble tankou premye dra yon gwo mizik oswa yon diss track. Konsidere kijan HMI renmen lè dram reyèl tounen mizik, konfli sa a ka byen bay WID enspirasyon pou pwochen gwo frap li. Si li pran tout sa k ap pase a epi mete l nan pawòl, Biggy Records ka regrèt li te ban l enspirasyon pou pwochen album li.
Sa ki te kòmanse kòm yon patenarya pwomèt ant WID ak Biggy Records kounya tounen yon konfli ki anvenime. Si rimè sou envestisman $750,000 yo vre, Biggy ka ap chèche reprann kòb li, pandan WID sanble pare pou defann non li ak sa li kwè ki pou li.
Dram sa a ap kòmanse chofe, epi HMI a ap swiv li byen pre. Pa sezi si konfli piblik sa a tounen yon mizik ki frape nan tèt klasman yo, paske, jan WID sot pwouve sa, trayi ak kè kase souvan fè pi bèl mizik yo.
Nou pa t ka pa imajine lèt sa a tounen yon chante, konsa nou vin ak 10 tit ke WID ta ka sèvi ak yo si l ta lage yon mizik sou dram sa a:
-
Pa Kite Anyen Dèyè
-
De Kob Senpman
-
Vre Vizaj Ou Devwale
-
M Pa Pè Ou
-
Men Ou Nan Tout Sa Ki Pa Pou Ou
-
M Pap Rete An Silans Ankò
-
Mete Pye Sou Fyè M
-
Pi Gwo Erè Ou
-
Jwèt Ou Ap Jwe Yo
-
