Huang Zitao, one of the few "living artists" in domestic entertainment, recently personally tore up well-known foreign DJs!
That's right, last Saturday Shanghai held a music carnival and invited DJ Martin Jr. to perform.
Martin Garrix is a Dutch musician who was voted the youngest DJ to be ranked No. 1 in the Top 100 at the age of 20 and has been at the top of the Top 100 DJ Chart for many years.
In other words, Martin Jr. is undoubtedly one of the most important guests of this music festival.
According to the official performance schedule, Huang Zitao and Martin Jr. had a 5-minute cooperation stage that night, and then from 19:05 to 20:00, Martin Jr. performed solo.
Originally, Huang Zitao only appeared for 5 minutes, and he was a guest guest, so he should have gone to attract popularity and increase popularity for the organizers. Unexpectedly, because of this 5-minute performance, there was a "performance accident".
That night, some netizens first posted a video of Huang Zitao getting angry outside the performance venue.
In the video, Huang Zitao has already done his makeup, just standing backstage at the music festival, pacing back and forth, his face is full of helplessness, there is off-site music in the voiceover, and some people persuade him to "don't be angry, big brother".
But Huang Zitao was still very angry, he pointed to the venue behind him and said: "Listen carefully, this is my voice, I'm not on stage, he (referring to Little Martin) played my song again, I'll play a hairy!"
The staff said that this is indeed rare, if not altogether, for the first time.
Huang Zitao said that this is also his first time - he has lived for 30 years and debuted for 13 years, and he has never seen such a thing!
Because he couldn't perform on stage, Huang Zitao quickly started the live broadcast that night to explain what happened to fans, resulting in him failing to go on stage as promised. (Tao's point is pretty good, the first time to appease the fans who went to the scene)
From Huang Zitao's point of view, here's the thing:
Huang Zitao was originally scheduled to participate in the music carnival at 7 o'clock that night, but because he did not apply for approval in advance, he could not sing his own songs, and could only cooperate with well-known foreign DJs on stage.
The track they collaborated on was Martin Jr.'s "forever", the whole song was 5 minutes, 3 minutes of DJ time, and Huang Zitao's part was only 1-2 minutes.
But during the rehearsal the day before, Huang Zitao went by himself, and the other party didn't come at all, saying that he would sing directly at the scene tomorrow.
The night was about to start, and the other party said that he would not be on the same stage with him, leave him here, and then perform by himself, and the repertoire also included the song that Huang Zitao wanted to perform.
Huang Zitao told fans in the live broadcast that he was not angry, he wanted to vent, "I have never met such a person who disrespects me and the other party's work so far." ”
Moreover, the other party's whole set of operations didn't communicate with Huang Zitao's team, so he left him here alone for more than an hour, "Do you think I can bear my character?"
Huang Zitao said that he will definitely come to the stage to explain the matter before the end of the festival.
At the end of the music festival, Huang Zitao came to the stage to explain the ins and outs of the matter, and scolded directly before stepping off the stage: "To be honest, who he is has nothing to do with me, because I don't know him myself, I don't f***ing care mother f***er!"
Wow, it's been a long time since I've seen an internal entertainment artist keep real like this!
After Huang Zitao's anger at Martin Jr. fermented, Huang Zitao apologized on multiple platforms, and his rhetoric on Weibo was more official, although he also emphasized that he apologized for "the inappropriate remarks at the end of the performance".
But his apology on shaking is much more just: "I only apologize for swearing on stage, nothing else, the apology is an apology, but I don't take it back." ”
It can be seen how angry Huang Zitao is at Martin for not respecting himself and the stage, and fans are also angry for Huang Zitao, supporting him to defend his rights reasonably, and shouting to Xiao Martin to apologize to Huang Zitao!
However, after learning of the fermentation of public opinion, Martin Jr. gave another version of the explanation:
Martin Jr. said that he played the song that was supposed to be with Huang Zitao, but Huang Zitao did not sing on stage.
He replied to this statement more than once, and he considered himself innocent:
"I even played this song (a song performed by the two on the same stage) after the performance, but he (Huang Zitao) was gone. The videos circulating online now are hurtful and completely untrue. ”
Later, Martin Jr. simply recorded a video explaining that from his point of view, things went like this:
From the beginning, the two of them had no arrangements to perform on stage together, and later the organizer temporarily communicated during Martin's performance, saying that they wanted to join the cooperation, and Martin said that they could work together to end the song.
But on the same day, he played a collaboration song between the two on the stage, and when he was about to enjoy the performance with Huang Zitao, Huang Zitao never appeared.
Martin Jr. said he felt embarrassed to be alone on stage, so he left the stage.
*Contradiction 1:
Martin Jr. said that he agreed to cooperate with the ending song, and the official performance list shows that Huang Zitao and Martin Jr. collaborated on the opening song, which proves that there must be a communication error between one party.
*Contradiction 2:
Huang Zitao said that Martin Jr. did not come to the rehearsal a day earlier, but Martin Jr. said that he was not in China at all a day earlier, and he only arrived in Shanghai on the morning of the performance, and was not told in advance to attend the rehearsal.
It can be seen that the information obtained by Huang Zitao and Xiao Martin is completely opposite.
Huang Zitao rehearsed → a day earlier and sang the opening song
Little Martin Fang → no rehearsal a day in advance, and sang the ending song
The information of the two parties is not equal, so Martin Jr. thinks that Huang Zitao does not come to power for some reason, and Huang Zitao thinks that Martin is playing a big name and disrespecting people, this is a situation that will definitely happen......
I have read the explanations of both parties, and netizens have their own judgments in their hearts.
Some netizens think that Huang Zitao is right, judging from the public information alone, the cooperation stage is at 7 o'clock, and Huang Zitao was left behind the scenes to wait, that is, Xiao Martin has no contract spirit and does not respect people.
Some netizens think that little Martin is not wrong, the habit of foreign DJs is to play a song halfway, and the singer will come up to cooperate, which is a contradiction between different performance cultures.
In the end, these contradictions and poor information can only be attributed to the poor communication of the organizers and the lack of coordination and docking with the two parties......
That evening, the carnival organizers issued a statement, saying only that the artist had misunderstood due to miscommunication and negligence in failing to confirm the information. As for what was misunderstood and who misunderstood, the organizers did not say much.
A suspected staff member of the organizer posted a complaint: "Why is little Martin so crazy, why is he ......" It is speculated from this that it was the uncontrollable and temporary change of hexagram that led to the follow-up problems?
Anyway, Huang Zitao is really miserable this time......
Even though I only had 5 minutes to perform, I went to the rehearsal a day in advance, and even if I couldn't go on stage normally on the day of the performance, I explained it to the fans and the audience as soon as possible.
This is thanks to Huang Zitao, who can be tough, a rare artist who is not easy to mess with in domestic entertainment, if he encounters an artist who wants to calm things down, won't he have to bear the infamy of "playing big names and not going on stage"......
