Hey KM !

Quick question. Where do you think the HMI will be within the next twenty years Do you think it will progress tremendously or no? Do you feel it will remain the same or get worse? Please state the reasons for your answers.


Thanks

if there's no drastic and immediate changes in the HMI, it will remain the same if not worse

1) musicien kap bay menti le album gin pou soti
2) promotor ko pa konn anyen nan promote djazz
3) fanatik pa ka jann konnin kombien CD yon djazz vann
4) manager djazz ki pa konn yon merde
5) musicien yo sipoze ramase character yo
6) gin trop tisousou nan HMI la, it is a business treat it like one


BE PROFESSIONALS( FROM OWNER TO GRATE KAP VANN TICKET DEHORS BAL YO)

Tout bagay ap toujou rete minm jan.

Unless gen yon revolution ki fet...either in personnel or in the way these people think.

I doubt that is going to happen.

Especially because we the fans continue to support them.

Hopefully a couple nice record labels with the ability to market the music, artists, will emerge. Music is almost like any other good, you have to sell and market it real well to people. You may have a great product in your hand, but if no one knows about it, you'll get the same results we've been in the HMI for far too long now. I do hope the next generation is little bit smarter than us.

Thank you kompared . From reading your responses, it seems like some of you are saying because OTHERS do not know much about the HMI that this is why they might never progress. For those of you whom think this way, do you feel this is the goal in order to get the HMI out of "the box" so to say?

Let Evie know !

Thanks

The HMI has no future and it will be like this for 50 yrs if not worse. we don't know how to operate the music industry as a big entity.we manage the music industry like a barbershop or a haitian restaurant with no good structure.

I don't think that we can manage our own business fairly and promote it efficiently. most haitian businessmen live for the next few dollars instead of a well respected legacy.

until we try to match up our bands with foreign bands, yo pap janm konen nou...
mwen toujou invite etrange al tande konpa, yo toujou di se yo renmen mizik la, li dous , li sensuel, li bien sonnen...
mwen ta renmen pou yo al tande konpa san ke se pa mwen ki mennen yo...
sel fason pou sa ka posib, se fe jazz nou yo jwe ak lot jazz etrange...
lap pi fasil pou nou intrege mizik nou yo lan sein yo...
en nou komense jwe ak jazz panyol, jamariken ak lot west indian yo...
paske moun sa yo pap deplase pou konpa selmen...
en nou fe ti premye pa sa'a...
promoteur, manager, club owner yo, en nou eseye ti sa'a..
nou pa gen anyen a perdre...
sinon, konpa ap toujou rete yon mizik lokal...
