What did Daolang do wrong?
Will it attract the entire mainstream music industry to suppress him, ridicule him, and force him to quit the circle?
Recently, several small things that happened to the 52-year-old Daolang "woke up the dreamer with a word"
01
Na Ying said that Daolang's songs do not have aesthetic characteristics
Wang Feng and Yang Kun said that Daolang's songs have no quality, which set the Chinese music scene back fifteen years
is as strong as Gu Jianfen, Yan Su, Xu Peidong and other palace-level musicians
It is necessary to convene a conference to "resist the vulgarity of Internet songs".
called Daolang's masterpiece "Impulsive Punishment" an Internet garbage that poisons teenagers
It can be said that in order to force Daolang to withdraw from the circle
Mainstream musicians do it all
02
Daolang is indeed excellent
The first album "The First Snow of 2002" did not have any warm-up
More than 2.7 million were sold
It was the sales champion of that year
But he is still a grassroots singer
No resources, no connections
And introverted, do not like to contact with the outside world
Even the variety shows and endorsements that domestic entertainment stars like very much are not cold
It poses no threat to the mainstream music industry
Here's the problem:
Why did the harmless Daolang become the "public enemy" of the entire mainstream music industry?
03
From December 27, 2023 to the present
In just one month
Daolang has won more than a dozen music awards
Including the Golden Melody Award with very high gold content
The Huading Award, which is known as the word-of-mouth award
I don't look down on musicians very much about the Chinese poetry Spring Festival Gala
and down-to-earth Tencent Music
And every time Daolang wins the award, the topic will rush to the hot search, attracting millions of onlookers
This means that even if Daolang retires from the circle, he is still a god-like existence
04
Switch angles
Daolang, who announced his retirement from the circle, was able to win so many music awards
If you don't quit the circle and continue to be active in front of the public?
The music awards and popularity he has won may have to show a geometric increase
Present:
The perfect singer Daolang who can sell albums, win awards, have high popularity, and have the support of the people
Throughout the past few decades of the development of domestic entertainment
We've never seen an entertainer of this genre
Including everyone's favorite Principal Tan and the singer Jacky Cheung, they can't do it
05
The entertainment industry is not big
The stars don't look up and look down
Mainstream musicians can accept people who are better than themselves
But the premise is that it's all in this circle
To put it mildly, the fertilizer water did not flow to the fields of outsiders
Although Daolang is a mainstream singer in the hearts of knife fans
But he has never considered himself a star in the entertainment industry
On the contrary, he feels that the positioning of grassroots artists is very good, and he enjoys it
This also means that he is on the opposite side of Na Ying, Wang Feng and others
The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit
The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit
When a grassroots emerges and makes the vested interests feel the crisis
It is not so strange to be suppressed by these people
06
Guo Degang once said: You are better than your peers, is this sin smaller?
At that time, many people did not understand
Aren't good artists able to lead the industry forward?
Why is it a sin?
In fact, the answer is very simple: hating people and laughing at people is the psychology of many people
It's a bit morbid, but it's real
Not everyone wants to climb upwards
After achieving some results, they want to stop and enjoy the moment
therefore
It's no wonder that Na Ying and Wang Feng frantically forced Dao Lang to withdraw from the circle
The "unrestrained" Daolang is too strong
Even if you are suppressed, you can get today's results
If he hadn't withdrawn from the circle, his artistic achievements might have surpassed Jay Chou
As for Daolang, who returned with three new albums three years later
Can it become the top stream of domestic entertainment again and lead the development of an era
We'll see
