There are no absolutes, everything is relative!
Whether a song is vulgar or elegant, it depends on the object of comparison!
Take Daolang as an example, he was labeled as "the song has no aesthetic point of view" and "no quality" by the mainstream ** circle.
So what about the ** works of singers in the mainstream circle?If it is very elegant, does it have aesthetic characteristics?Not necessarily!
Among the many singers who complain about Daolang, Wang Feng's comprehensive strength should be the strongest.
Many of his works are written and composed by himself, such as Beijing, Beijing, Existence, Blooming Life, etc.
In contrast, Na Ying became popular by singing songs written by others, and Yang Kun's masterpiece was only "It Doesn't Matter".
Regarding Daolang, Wang Feng's evaluation is: The phenomenon of Daolang is the sorrow of the Chinese music world!
In Wang Feng's eyes, Daolang's song level is very low, and it is not proportional to his ** sales!
Today, let's compare Wang Feng's new song with Daolang's new song to see who is elegant, who is vulgar, and who is sad in the music world!
On July 19, 2023, Daolang, who has retired from the music scene for ten years, will return with a new ** "Mountain Songs".
Just like 19 years ago, this new style without any promotion** became popular all over the Internet and even the world as soon as it came out.
The 80 billion** volume of Rakshasa Sea City can be described as eternal and modern.
The 11 songs in the whole ** have achieved good results, and the starting point is 1 billion**, which has attracted countless **people to create two times!
The way "Mountain Song is Few" is red is different from "The First Snow in 2002".
The latter relies on heartfelt, down-to-earth lyrics and catchy melodies.
As for the former, the literary level of the lyrics is extremely high, and the tunes are basically from folk tunes, such as the backer tunes commonly used in the field of two-person transfer.
Every time Daolang updates his works, he will attract countless experts and scholars to analyze them, as little as a few hours, as much as a day or two, after reading these analyses, we can really understand what Daolang wrote, and the purpose of creation!
Throughout the decades of development of the Chinese music scene, this phenomenon has never occurred, and the vast majority of singers are walking the rivers and lakes with "saliva songs", especially those who "eat all over the world with one trick"!
Let's take a look at Wang Feng's new song "Escape" launched last year
Then pick a few lyrics for everyone to enjoy:
Wearing a short skirt in the snow in December.
Lower hair information when driving.
Cursing and crying at a pine tree.
You say I'm the reason for all this.
Baby, stop going crazy like this.
If this continues, I'm really going to run away.
This ** is the lyrics that rock songs should have, like the words used by teenage children to fall in love and quarrel.
Not to mention, even if you take out "Impulsive Punishment", which Daolang was ridiculed as "Internet garbage" by the mainstream ** circle, the lyrics are more capable than this, and there is a sense of meaning, right?
Wang Feng has debuted for decades and won various ** awards, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most successful rock singer.
When a person reaches middle age, writing lyrics of the level of "Escape" is really incomprehensible.
Rock songs are dominated by criticism of society.
It can also be some insights into life.
Like "Beijing, Beijing" and "Existence" are all of this genre.
Only in the song "Escape", people feel that Wang Feng's level has dropped a lot.
Therefore, it is obviously a bit one-sided to call such and such a singer a sad singer in the music world and a song of no quality with just a few songs!
Daolang is from the grassroots, and the environment in which he creates ** is much worse than that of Naying Wang Feng and others, but even so, he still came up with a lot of amazing works.
If the pattern of mainstream ** people back then was larger and helped Daolang grow, instead of malicious suppression, maybe it would not be the scene it is today!
