How can you tell the difference between Zouk, Kompa, Zouk-Love, Soca, etc.?

The difference, I think, is in the rhythm. The best way to tell the difference is spend time listenning to these rhythm so that you may develop an ear for them. I suggest you start with a collection of zouk music. Bònn chans!

"No pike Englissshhh!"

Ha! Ha! :)
I remember I used to talk like that when I just came here.
People like you used to make fun of me.
Those were memorable times.... dreams of making it big here.....
And then, we realize, we actually have to work hard for a living,... there was no "milk and honey" streaming down the street of the United States. There were no trails of pennies on our path either, as some had said : (
The Haitian Government lied to us!!! We demand a refund!!!
But seriously, it's a great opportunity. Isn't it?
Ever thought of what would you'd be, in Haiti, if you had never come here? Well, I have. And it's not good.
Thanks for the memories :-)
