| introduction...

• Welcome to Soompi Hmong Collaborations, a collaboration project created for Hmong singers here at soompi (hence the name). My goal (Annyon) is to bring together Hmong people of all age, sex, and religions with one common interest; singing. My dream is to one day make the youth of Hmong realize that they don't HAVE to be in a Korean or Japanese entertainment to be heard or to be a star. I want to make us all realize that we are ONE people; ONE culture; ONE language; ONE voice. Instead of looking up to the larger mainstream Artists of other Asian countries, I want us Hmong to be able to finally LOOK AT OURSELVES FOR WHO WE ARE, and to recognize the talent and dreams that each and every one of us HMONG are capable of becoming someday.
  
  It saddens me that many of us Hmong has either wanted in the past or still do want to be in a Korean/Other Asian
  entertainment. One day I want to finally establish OUR OWN entertainment for our people. We are such a small minority
  group, and to arise strength through entertainment and music, we will need all the support and skills we can get.
  
  The Hmong language is a key in this collaboration. Instead of just singing covers, we will be writing and possibly
  composing our own HMONG music. Yes, it will be in our language. I especially do not want our language to be lost. We as
  one culture must fight the new world, in remaining in tact with our language and our unique culture. I have heard many talented Hmong artists here, so I have no doubts that we can do whatever our will pushes us to do if we just try.
  
  And even if you aren't Hmong, if you are interested in learning the language and culture of our people, you are welcomed to join and even sing with us (if you can learn our language). And for the struggling Hmong of today, even myself, who struggle with reading and speaking our own language, don't worry... We will go through this together, and learn how to write and read in Hmong (hopefully) as one group!
  

-------------------------------------------

| join us...

• Right now I am looking for people who can:
  
  - Write/Read almost (if not fully) fluenty in the Hmong language.
  - Composers (people who make music).
  - Singing ability.
  
  And I think that's it for now... If you can write/read in hmong pretty well, please post below and whether you can help
  us out or not (with writing lyrics, ect...).

I'll update later... It's getting pretty late where I am. ~_~

*gah...* Annyon, i love your fighting spirit. Your intro was perfectly said.

... Anyway, of course i'd like to help! =)

I'm currently taking Hmong class at the university i go to.

It's not an actual class for credit or anything, but it's so nice to have our

Hmong organization provide it this year for our own personal enrichment.

Anyway, so hopefully i can help with writing lyrics.. i used to do lyrics. But never in Hmong..

I can't compose yet, but it's a long-term goal of mine .

But i'd particularly like to join in on the singing. =)

Is this an audition or.. just to see if anyone's interested?

Ua tsaug ..!^^

Keep up w/ your writing and dreams.

lol .. xDD .. haha, that`s funny xDD ..

you know, the English accent is like

the Austrillian accent O___O .. my dad`s

grandparents live in Austrillia and i thought

that my dad`s parents adopted a daughter

O___O .. lol .. she was talking to meh on the

phone, and i thought she was like .. meecaj

or something xDD .. lol .. but, it`s just a

hmoob picking up the Austrillian accent xDD ..

[Guest Annyon]

Well the Australian accent was derived from the English! lol

And maaaaan I wished my family hadn't chosen to move here as refugees after the war!

I wished we had moved to like Australia, France, Germany, or elsewhere in Europe!

Anyways, I'm going to try and write some more hmong songs right now... Talk with you later!~ =]

[Guest Oome]

I can kinda read and kinda write. Not fully, or can I write half a page of speech.

I don't know if I should take part because I'm very lacky in this reading & writing area.

Although, I can understand very well () and wouldn't mind helping with wording certain lines.

Must go study harder.

[Guest iluvdonghae]

lol .. you`re not thee only one xDD .. lol,

i`m green too ^___^ .. yess xDD ..

[hello-to-honesty]

i'm a 14 year old who speaks hmong fluently (since my family likes to keep things a bit old school. kind of like how i don't make rice in the rice cooker. ) i can write some hmong and read it too. so i'd love to help!

-edit-

btw i speak both hmong white and green since my mom is white and my dad's green.
