Muzion was a Canadian rap group formed in 1996. The group is made up of rap artists of Haitian origin who lived in Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension in Montreal, including Dramatik, Imposs (real name Stanley Rimsky Salgado) and his sister J-Kyll. Imposs went on to a solo career, releasing his debut solo album in 2007, Mon Poing D'Vue.

Career

Muzion was considered a prominent group on the Montreal urban scene. The group won the Félix Award at the ADISQ gala for Best Album of the Year - Hip Hop twice, in 2000 for their debut album, Mentalité Moune Morne… (Ils n'ont pas compris) (Produced by Haig Vartzbedian), and again in 2003 for their second album, J'Rêvolutionne.

Based on the success of the albums in France, they toured with IV My People, an extension of the cult group NTM, playing at the Zenith in Paris.

Muzion collaborated most notably with Wyclef Jean in his francophone song 24 Heures à vivre.[1][2]

The group was featured on a Canada Post stamp in February 2026 as part of its Black History Month collection.[3]
