What exactly is the expression "voye pwen"?
Voye pwen → to indirectly accuse/speak of someone, to imply, to give a hint, to indirectly place the blame on an individual.
Voye pwen, or "throwing points"- is hostile exchange of interpersonal discourse where messages are "sent", by speech, but more commonly in song form. This is part of Haitian vodou practices.
