Pamela Kwong
New York, USA
I grew up listening to 80’s/90’s Cantopop songs and so, I selected six
songs that are a source of solace and wisdom. Although I have been
judged for listening to Cantopop, I hold onto my father’s stories of
browsing the latest Hong Kong records and cassette tapes in a NYC
Chinatown music store, which no longer exists. This nostalgia ties into
a particular time when Hong Kong entertainment was experiencing a
wave. The Cantonese diaspora is vast and scattered, but our songs
connect us back together. Our stories will live on if we keep sharing
them.
