Marshee: a guest voice and a songwriter credit, in 2023
Published October 20, 2026
Marshee is a singer who exists, in the public archives consulted, through a single record only: “You Broke Me First (Bouyon)”, the Kwib La Beats single released on September 11, 2023 on 5269234 Records DK. Her name appears twice on that page, in two different posts: as a feature in the very heading of the title, and in the writing credit, where the platform writes marshee, in lower case, as songwriter. No solo record, no artist page, no biography and no verified official account was found. This profile publishes that double presence, the full page of the record and the Dominican circuit of the lead artist who carries it, and it states openly everything it does not know, rather than turning a guest voice into an invented portrait. The Dominica in the title of this page is that of the Kwib La Beats scene, not an origin lent to Marshee, whose origin no source publishes.
Who Marshee is: a feature name and a songwriter name
Let us start with the exact inventory, because the whole file fits inside it. Marshee is credited on a single verified record, a record by another artist. “You Broke Me First (Bouyon) (feat. Marshee)” is the single of Kwib La Beats, a producer name of the Dominican bouyon wave documented on this site. In the heading, Marshee appears as a feature, the English formula that names the guest artist. In the credits of the page, she appears a second time, in the songwriter post. No source consulted documents a record where Marshee is the lead artist, nor a second feature under this name.
The name appears in two spellings on the same page, and the detail matters for future searches. The heading of the record writes Marshee, with a capital letter, as an artist name. The credits section, Composition and Lyrics in the language of the platform, writes marshee, entirely in lower case, followed by the role Songwriter. This site keeps Marshee as the main form, the one of the heading, and flags the credit form for what it is: the same signature, entered differently in the metadata. The situation is frequent on automatically distributed releases, where the heading is cared for by the team and the credits are carried as the distributor transmits them.
Care is required with neighbouring names, and this profile states it from the start. There are artists on the web with close names, including an R and B singer credited under a similar spelling with a family name, surfaced only by statistics aggregators during discovery. No opened source links that artist to the Kwib La Beats single: neither the spelling, nor the genre, nor the circuit overlap in any checkable document. This profile therefore does not merge the two names. Marshee, here, is exactly and only the voice and the writer of the 2023 record, and any biography imported from a neighbouring name would be an invention, not research.
The most personal fact in the file lies in the nature of the double credit. To be at once the guest voice and the credited writer of a record draws a precise role: Marshee is not a performer called in over a finished text, she also signs the writing of the song she sings. On the pages of this scene, the split is often the reverse, a producer and writers on one side, a guest voice on the other. Here, one and the same person holds both posts on the song side, while the top billed name holds the bouyon side, that of the title, the format and the upload. That is little, but it is real career information, and it is entirely contained in the page opened for this profile.
You Broke Me First (Bouyon): the page, line by line
The record that carries Marshee is fully documented by its platform page, opened in full for this profile. “You Broke Me First (Bouyon) (feat. Marshee)”, by Kwib La Beats, was released on September 11, 2023 on 5269234 Records DK, as a single, the page stating that it appears within a single album of the same heading. The language is English, and the tempo measured by the platform is 160 BPM. The credits section contains a single name: marshee, songwriter. No production credit, no other writer and no other performer is printed on the page, which makes the document both thin and perfectly readable.
The heading itself is a programme, and it reads in three parts. The base, “You Broke Me First”, is the heading of an English language pop breakup song, in the first person, whose original format is a ballad. The bracket, “(Bouyon)”, plants the genre of the remake in the middle of the official title, like a flag: the track is published as a bouyon version, not as a plain cover. The feature, “(feat. Marshee)”, names the voice that carries the song in this format. The whole division of labour of this kind of single fits into those three segments: a well known pop heading, a claimed Caribbean genre, and a credited guest voice who is also the writer on the page.
The tempo confirms the repositioning. 160 BPM is the cruising tempo of the current bouyon single, the one the pages of the Dominican wave display record after record, and that of the two other verified Kwib La Beats credits, “Rum” and “Pocket Rocket”, also measured at 160 BPM. A song born as a pop ballad, republished at that tempo under an explicit bouyon tag, changes function: it leaves bedroom listening for the dancefloor, and the voice of Marshee is the instrument of that shift, since hers is the name the heading puts forward and the credits sign. This profile does not describe her performance, which no documentary source comments on: it establishes her presence, her double credit and the full frame of the record, which are the facts the platform publishes.
The release banner also says something about the economics of the record. 5269234 Records DK is one of those numbered banners generated by automatic distribution: a number, the word Records, the initials of the distributor. Hundreds of bouyon singles from the islands and the diaspora appear under those administrative lines, which are neither houses nor brands. The Marshee single belongs to that economy of the direct upload, with no named label, no documented campaign and no artist page behind the guest voice. It is inside that frame, and only inside that frame, that her name survives publicly: a heading line and a credit line, which this profile fixes before they get lost.
Kwib La Beats: the lead artist, and the scene the feature plugs into
To place Marshee, the artist who invites her must be placed, since his circuit gives the feature its context. Kwib La Beats is a producer name of the current Dominican bouyon wave, with no public biography, which this site documents credit by credit. His record with Marshee, in September 2023, is the oldest dated trace in his file: it is also, to date, his only lead artist single verified by an opened page. The voice of Marshee is therefore attached to the public starting point of the name, before the production credits for other artists that would build its reputation two years later.
What follows in that file sheds light on the value of the starting point. In February 2025, Kwib La Beats is the sole credited producer of “Rum”, by Trixzmigos featuring Hussey and Poyzin, one of the group most streamed records on the platform. In April 2025, it produces “Pocket Rocket”, by BRG Hollywood, on BankrollGang. In June 2025, the tracklist of an NTS radio programme lines up three of its riddims, “Anyhow It Goes Riddim”, “Sad Piano Riddim” and “Holy Moley Riddim”. In October 2026, the Dominican press places it on the instrumental of Trilla-G “Up Next Cypher, Vol. 1”, the platform project for the island next generation. Between the 2023 single and those credits, the path is that of a beatmaker who moved from the numbered self release to work for named structures, LTG RECORDS, BankrollGang, Still Trill Entertainment.
The Marshee feature reads again in the light of that path, without lending it what it does not contain. In 2023, when Kwib La Beats releases under its own name, it needs a voice to carry a pop song in bouyon format, and a writer to sign it: Marshee holds both roles on the page. No source says whether the two artists worked together again afterwards, whether Marshee belongs to the producer Dominican circle, or whether the collaboration was a remote exchange, like so many features of the automatic distributor era. This profile therefore notes the junction, dated and credited, and refuses the personal geography: the documented scene is that of Kwib La Beats, the Dominica of his wave, and Marshee appears in it as a guest, with no published origin of her own.
The grammar of the names, on this page, sums up the format. Kwib La Beats presents itself as a beats name, built for streaming pages: the function in the artist name, the genre in the title, the voice in the feature. Marshee, in mirror, is a name of voice and writing, with no displayed function and no other trace. The profiles of this site exist for both halves of the scene: the producers whose credits draw a career without a biography, on our bouyon producers page, and the guest voices whose name a single record keeps, like this one. Our bouyon playlist follows the records of this wave as they come out.
The bouyon remake format: a pop song, a tempo, a genre flag
The Marshee single belongs to a format the bouyon wave practises at scale, and understanding it helps to read the page. The format takes an English language pop song already known to the public, often a breakup ballad or an R and B record, and republishes it over a bouyon instrumental, at the fete tempo of the genre, with the word bouyon written into the official heading. The genre bracket is not decorative: it is what makes the record findable by the DJs, the selectors and the algorithms looking for bouyon, and what sets the version apart from the dozens of other covers of the same pop heading. On the 2023 page, that bracket is the only element that formally ties the record to the genre this site documents, together with the 160 BPM tempo.
In this format, the guest voice does specific work, different from that of a rap or dancehall feature. She must carry a pop melody written for another tempo and another breathing, and hold it over the bouyon machine, without the song losing its identity as a song. That the same person is credited as the writer of the record then takes a practical sense: adapting an existing song to a new format is writing work, rewriting placements, breathing and sometimes lyrics, and the page attributes that work to marshee, alone in the credit. This profile presents that reading as what it is, a reading of the credit roll and the format, and not a studio account that no source provides.
The context of the genre recalls why these remakes matter in the recent history of bouyon. Bouyon was born in Dominica at the end of the 1980s, and bouyon soca was started in Dominica in 2003 by Dada, according to the first hand testimony of Sean “Smokiller” Francis, a Dominican-born producer and a participant in that era. A generation later, the genre also lives on these hybrid objects: world pop songs rewired at 160 BPM by producers from the islands and the diaspora, which serve as entry doors for the pop public toward the sound of Roseau. The Marshee single is a dated and clean specimen of that mechanism, as early as 2023, at the moment when the current Dominican wave begins to line up its singles.
What the file does not say: the limits, stated
This profile ends with its limits, because they form half of its information. No solo record by Marshee was verified on the platforms consulted during this research: no single under her name, no artist page of her own, no album, no second feature. No biography, no interview, no official photograph and no social media account confirmed by direct opening was found, so the structured data of this page links to no external account. Her personal origin is published by no source: no island, no town and no country is stated here, and the Dominica of this page is the scene of the lead artist, Kwib La Beats, documented by his other credits.
The verified scope fits into one record and two credits. The record: “You Broke Me First (Bouyon) (feat. Marshee)”, by Kwib La Beats, released on September 11, 2023 on 5269234 Records DK, in English, at 160 BPM, documented by its platform page opened in full, which resolved correctly during this research, unlike several pages of the same platform retried the same week for other names of this wave. The two credits: Marshee as a feature in the heading, and marshee as sole songwriter in the Composition and Lyrics section. Anything circulating elsewhere about Marshee without a source, an age, an origin, a solo discography or links with artists of neighbouring names, should be read with the caution that scope imposes.
The listening, while waiting for what comes next, fits into one record, and this profile owns that. “You Broke Me First (Bouyon)” is heard as the public starting point of Kwib La Beats and as the only trace of his guest voice: a few minutes of bouyon remake format, where a pop breakup song moves to the Dominican fete tempo. The path of the lead artist continues on his Kwib La Beats page, from “Rum” to the Trilla-G cypher. If Marshee one day publishes a record under her own name, an artist page or a biography, this profile will be completed and dated, like every page on this site. In the meantime, it publishes what the page gives, no more and no less: a guest voice, a songwriter, and a single record dated September 11, 2023.

Has Marshee released solo records?
No solo record was verified during this research, carried out on October 20, 2026. No single under her name, no artist page of her own and no other confirmed feature under the name Marshee.

What is documented is the scene of her only credit: Kwib La Beats belongs to the Dominican bouyon wave, as producer of Trixzmigos and BRG Hollywood and as instrumentalist of the Trilla-G Up Next Cypher. Marshee is therefore placed through her collaboration, with no island or country of origin stated.
