Fifth place: "Narclaw", Jay Chou.

Lin Jianyue's eyes changed when he saw this name.

Isn’t this the ordinary newcomer’s song released by Zulong?

When I saw it last time, Lin Jianyue couldn't remember whether it was ranked 18th or 19th. He only remembered that it was still very different from the ranking of H4's "Storm and Clouds".

But now, why did you suddenly climb to fifth place and catch up behind the butt of "The Storm and Clouds"?

Then he thought about it and he cursed:

"Wu Nianzu, you have to set up a archway after becoming a bitch!"

What emphasizes fairness and justice? Zulong must have reached a private deal with Hong Kong Island Radio, allowing them to raise the ranking of this newcomer!

Otherwise, just by Jay Chou’s appearance and his unclear singing style, he could be ranked at this level?

Thinking of this, he quickly called to inform him and asked his subordinates to speed up the rankings today. Otherwise, if Zulong really used PY trading to send this "Narclaw" to the first place, his rankings may not be useful!

Then Lin Jianyue frowned and stared at Jay Chou's name. He didn't take this little character seriously before, but only regarded him as the cannon fodder newcomer who launched the disgusting H4.

But now, he felt it was still necessary to let the people below get to know the newcomer well.

Time passes slowly, and Lin Jianyue spent money to make a list and the effect of winning the rankings is still very obvious.

The next day, "The Storm and Clouds Change" directly topped the second place on the list, surpassing the songs "Dark" and "Traveling apart". However, in the list I saw, "Narclaw" also followed suit, climbing from fifth to fourth place.

The next day, "The Storm and Clouds" made another effort and directly topped the list. Lin Jianyue finally showed a satisfied smile.

On the third day, "The Storm and Clouds" still held its title, but Lin Jian looked back and his eyelids twitched. Why did the "Narclaw" suddenly jump from fourth to second place?!

Inexplicably, Lin Jianyue had a bad premonition.

It's only three days before the new H4 album is released. He doesn't want any accidents to happen. He must ensure that H4 debuts successfully!

H4 is Lin Jianyue who held great hope. He must not let such a minion pose a threat to H4!

Then he picked up the phone.

...

The next day, there were a lot of noises about "Narcuse", which ranked second on the list.

"Singing doesn't look like a song, hum haha, I don't know what he is singing!"

"Singing is not chanting scriptures, nor is it Rat Laibao!"

There was a long-silent senior in the music industry who even stood up to criticize:

“I really don’t know what music are being made of young people today?!

Is this song "Narclaw" a song?

The most basic element of a song is the tune and the lyrics!

Look at this "Narclaw". The tune is vague and it is chaotic from beginning to end. I can't tell where it is. I just want to sleep when I listen to it. I really endured the pain and finished listening to this song!

There is also that singer Jay Chou. There is no clear pronunciation from beginning to end. Is this kind of person worthy of being a singer?

Are the requirements for singers in the music industry so low now?

I've read his interview and stuttered and couldn't even speak clearly. What songs are you singing?

And his image, whether it is his clothes or hairstyle, he looks like a gangster, so he is not suitable to be a singer!

I really recommend that you don’t take out such singers and songs in the future to show off your ugly face, which will simply pollute everyone’s ears!”

This report not only reposts the interview with this senior in the music industry, but also conducts a street investigation on "Narcuse".

They interviewed dozens of citizens on the street and asked them to listen to "Narclaw". As a result, after listening to it, 90% of citizens said that they would not accept such noisy music.

Once the report was released, it was cited by some different tabloids.

Wu Nianzu, who was in the hotel, also received relevant news.

To be honest, Wu Nianzu has long been mentally prepared for "Narcuse".

In his previous life, Jay Chou debuted quietly and shyly, and was considered to be "pretending to be cool". He always said that "no dick" seemed to have low quality. In any case, he did not meet the expectations of the older generation of people for the king and celebrities.

He doesn't have good looks, and his natural little eyes cannot be saved;

If he wants talent, he doesn't seem to be recognized. Some older generations say he is humming all day long haha. I don't know what he is doing.

At that time, many people could not accept his hairstyle and clothing. Music critic Yuan Yue also said that Jay Chou "looks like a gangster." At that time, many people, especially the elderly, believed that Jay Chou's songs had many problems.

But this wave is obviously because of "Narclaw" that was organized and blackmailed, otherwise how could there be so many negative comments suddenly?

You should know that it is just a promotional preview period for song rankings, and even the record has not been officially released yet!

After Wu Nianzu and Huo Wenxi talked for a few words, they roughly understood that it was basically Lin Jianyue who was doing something wrong.

Then Wu Nianzu read the black spots again, and had to admit that Lin Jianyue had tried to find someone to pick on the tricks this time. These are the impressions many people have had of "Narcuse" after its birth.

However, Wu Nianzu laughed at these.

Will Jay Chou still be afraid of controversy and saliva?

He is not an ordinary weak newcomer!

In his previous life, he was following so many mainstream negative comments and getting higher and higher, which shows that he is actually strong enough inside!

Wu Nianzu was not worried about his psychological quality at all.

And isn’t there still the Ancestral Dragon?

The more controversy, the greater the traffic. Wu Nianzu was still wondering how to make more people pay attention to Xiao Zhou. Isn’t this the popularity that comes to the door?

The next day, amidst a murmur, an article titled "The Narclaw opens a new era of Chinese music!" also emerged in the market.

Liu Anlin happened to see this article at this time. As most of Wu Nianzu's fan, he also paid attention to the singers launched by Zulong.

He also listened to "Narcuse" and thought it was really cool, but is this title a bit exaggerated?

He thought in his mind, and he looked into the main text.

“

A week ago, I heard that H4, which is famous recently, is about to launch its main Chinese hip-hop rap song "The Storm and Clouds Change Color", and the author is looking forward to it.

After listening to it on the radio, it did meet my expectations. It is a high-quality rap song and deserves a thumbs up!

However, at the same time, the author saw many people cursing a new song that ranked second on the list, "Narcuse".

This aroused the author's deep curiosity, why can a new song be ranked second while being scolded?

However, after listening to this song "Narcuse", my mind was blank!

Can't hear the lyrics clearly? Can't speak clearly?

Maybe all of these are, but it brings me more of an unparalleled shock!

It's shocking!

This is definitely an epoch-making song in the Chinese music scene!

Maybe everyone thinks that the author is exaggerating, but please note that it is a hip-hop rap song!

I would like to call it the number one Chinese rap song today!

Friends who know rap and rap know that this form of singing is now very popular internationally and is thriving at an extremely fast pace.

In fact, Chinese rap has been tried a lot 10 or 20 years ago, but it has been developing very slowly.

The reason is, on the one hand, that rap itself develops in the form of English, and has a history of decades. The various techniques and tricks of rap were originally developed under the premise of perfectly adapting to English. Therefore, many techniques and tricks may not be applicable in Chinese.

On the other hand, from a professional perspective, English is a typical pinyin character. Its vocabulary is basically appropriately deformed in the spelling of international phonetic symbols. This is a very suitable language for speaking. Basically, what you want to say can be expressed as what you want to say. English is better because of the coherence of words and no limitation of tone, so many wonderful flow combinations are produced.

Chinese characters are ideologies and are monosyllable morphemes. The Chinese characteristics are that each Chinese character has only one syllable, which will reduce the coherence of the words and the limitations of the four tones. When some words want to fit a certain tone, the pronunciation will be embarrassing, but if the characteristics of Chinese can be highlighted, it will be a different style.

The reason why English has a singular flow is that its polysyllables are split into syllables of different words creates this art, while Chinese characters are not suitable for this aspect.

So in terms of congenital pronunciation, compared to English, Chinese itself is not a language that is very suitable for rap.

However, the emergence of "Narclaw" completely changed this situation!

Jay Chou changed his Chinese rhyme to adapt to the rhythm of hip-hop music, turning all lyrics that were not remake into the fourth tone pronunciation, completely serving the rhythm.

This technique overcomes a major flaw in Chinese that is not suitable for RAP, such as syncopation, modifier, and multi-linked sound.

This kind of singing style that you listeners think is because of inaccurate pronunciation, in my opinion, is a variety of sport!

In terms of arrangement, this song is powerful in its imagination and unprecedented development. The classical piano added to heavy metal rock and rap, no matter how many times it listens, it makes people feel trembling and goosebumps all over!

In terms of subject matter, it is completely different from Western hip-hop focusing on topics such as sex, uniqueness, violence, etc. This song "Narclaw" sings exactly the traditional Kung Fu culture of our China!

Rap also needs a fusion, and cannot copy the Western music Rap style. After all, you don’t have that kind of street background culture, rhythmic language, and political common sense!

Developing Chinese rap is not about copying various rapper skills and tricks based on black rap. In my opinion, it will only be an embarrassing imitation!

And it is precisely in this song "Narcuse" that I saw the perfect fusion of oriental music, oriental culture and rap!

In this song "Narcuse", Jay Chou turned black rap into Chinese-friendly rap and was completely Chinese.
