Apple Music recently released the 2023 Chinese mainland singles year-end chart TOP100, in simple terms, this can be called the annual Jay Chou playlist. Amazingly, 55 of the top 100 songs are Jay Chou's, and he not only swept the top 15 on the list, but also 19 of the top 20. Such results make this list almost Jay Chou's personal ***
In the mainland, from Q Yin to NetEase, Jay Chou's songs are in the leading position. Someone will feel in a trance, is it 2023 or 2003?In the past two decades, the Chinese music scene does not seem to have produced a figure that can match Jay Chou. This conclusion has been conclusive for many years.
Although there are many singers in the Chinese music scene, there is a lack of serious singers who are really focused on their careers. Most of the new generation of artists pay more attention to traffic than to devote themselves to it**. This includes artists from Xi students, such as Cai Moukun, although his popularity is high, few people can remember his ** works.
Even if there are some artists who focus on singing, such as Zhang Yixing, their performance on ** may not be able to win the favor of most listeners. Their beauty or level of effort may please fans, but once it comes to the ** itself, some passers-by really can't listen to it.
Now, the main way to get ** is through short**. No matter what song it is, if you want to get out of the circle on the short ** platform, you need to meet the standard of 15 seconds BGM. This has led to a lot of songs and melodies designed for **. Short users prefer simple, easy-to-remember melodies and don't care much about lyrics or other factors that improve quality.
Although the Chinese music scene has been criticized and ridiculed lately, it is actually because the current singers have failed to produce satisfactory compositions. Jay Chou's songs have always been loved by listeners, and his works always have a new lease of life. His status in the Chinese music scene is no longer something that some new-generation artists can shake in recent years.
In general, the current situation of the Chinese music scene cannot be blamed on Jay Chou's supergod, but should reflect on the efforts and concentration of other singers in creation.
