His passion for music has played such a tremendous role in who he is and who he desires to become. Growing up in Miami around his Haitian community gave Aklesso a love for his culture and a desire to be a voice for the people. “I want to leave the world better than when I found it!” exclaims Aklesso when asked about leaving his legacy.
Foolie Vision
Aklesso’s passion for the community gave birth to Foolie Vision. Despite the nature of the word, Foolie is a term of endearment. The term “Foolie” means “friends or family,”originated as a phrase given to neighborhood teens who sought gangs, drugs and violence, and didn’t have family. In a world where so many people feel alone, Foolie hopes to create a safe place where people feel they are a part of something bigger than themselves. Foolie is a brand that seeks out the outcast and calls them family. When you’re a Foolie, you’re never alone and you are Foolie loved.
Foolie’s goal is to create meaningful art and community, but more importantly to push the name of Jesus into different social circles.
