Netflix and Wyclef Jean have teamed up to turn Jean’s childhood in Haiti into an animated movie. Wyclef Jean was born in Haiti and grew up there until age 9 in which his family then moved to Brooklyn, NY. Shortly after, Jean moved to Jersey in which he then started his music career.
Jean expressed, “I grew up in extreme poverty but I was rich with imagination. Now to see that imagination turn into reality with Netflix and my producing partners makes me want to tell the kids from the slums around the world to never stop dreaming.”
