On the occasion of the New Year's Eve, the major music platforms have launched a year-end inventory of users listening to songs, and it is not difficult to find from the summary of many people's songs this year that the phenomenon of a few stars in the playlists of previous years is gone, and it is replaced by a new world of singers with a hundred flowers. This year's pop music market, summed up by one key word: savage growth. At the beginning of the new year, 2019, we selected three representative and different new generation singers from the outstanding musicians who have grown up in the past year to see how they have become popular.
Cai Xukun - a new traffic manager
Mentioning this name, it is no exaggeration to say that he carries half of the singer's traffic on his shoulders. The chosen son of the summer of 2018 is the new traffic director born in 1998 who debuted as a talent show. Ten years ago, "Super Girl", which is also a talent show, walked out of Li Yuchun, Zhou Bichang, Zhang Liangying and other first-line singers, and in the following ten years, they shined and made great works. Ten years later, debuting from the C position in "Even Practice", the emergence of Cai Xukun opened a new era in the pop Chinese music scene. He represents the new dimension of musical appreciation, avant-garde, trend, freedom, the combination of these elements, so that the aesthetics of music fans must rush forward, can no longer be the past ten years of music appreciation standards to judge their works.
Not long after his debut, Cai Xukun successively launched several of his own works "wait wait wait", "pull up", etc., although there are still many people who do not agree, but there is no doubt that he represents the music of this era, which is the musician that young people in this era want.
Meng Meiqi - the leader of the First National Women's Group
Meng Meiqi, a 101 girl who debuted from another talent show "Creation 101", can be said to be the same as Cai Xukun. The same is the same C players for their respective programs, the same born in 98, the same can sing and dance, the appearance of the explosion, countless circle fans; The difference is that Miki is already a member of the Korean girl group Cosmic Boy as early as before participating in the festival, and has become a little famous, and after her debut, Miki is more involved in the new group and launches works as Rocket Girl 101.
Compared with the avant-garde style of Cai Xukun's works, the works of Rocket Girl are more intimate and brainwashed, and songs such as "Calories", "Moon Police" and "Light" have received good word of mouth and singing, and because of this, Rocket Girl 101 is known as the "National Girl Group". And although she is in a huge group of 11 people, it is still difficult to hide its brilliance, whether it is singing or dancing, Miki is the most unique star. It is believed that under the operation of the draft godmother Long Dani, the future of Miki and Rocket Girl will be unlimited.
Hu 66 - 2 billion play myths
Compared with the first two, the fans of the mixed rice circle may not be very familiar with her. But if it is put on the mass music market, then she can be said to be red and purple. Some netizens have calculated before that her song has been heard an average of 1.66 times per Chinese. She is the original singer of the 2018 champion single "Empty as Well". Also from 1998, but unlike Cai Xukun Meng Meiqi's draft approach, Hu 66 did not have a professional music director, did not help her run the agency, and spoke purely through her naturally rare good voice and her outstanding musical works. Before being well known to everyone, Hu 66 is a singer of Kugou Live, singing to netizens every day in the live broadcast room, after becoming famous, she still maintains this habit, as soon as she has time to start broadcasting on Kugou, in her own words, "Fame or not, is still the girl who still sings", only it is not easy to start this, just like her cold and indifferent singing voice.
From several rapid fall events in the entertainment industry this year, it is not difficult to see that many young musicians are impetuous in their treatment of "overnight fame", and Hu 66, as a 20-year-old girl who sits on the legendary data of 2.3 billion singles played, is particularly low-key and calm in the face of the sudden million fans and stars. After "Empty" "bloodbath" of the major music lists, Hu 66 is not proud and complacent, still continues to polish his own musical works, in just three months, has launched "Ronin Pipa", "Born To Guess", "Please Don't Say Love Me", "Reader", "Annihilation" and other excellent works, especially by the well-known musicians in the circle Monochrome Ling tailor-made "Ronin Pipa", after the launch quickly achieved 240 million plays and nearly 800,000 comments, and last month's latest "Annihilation" is also comparable to the first-line big-name singers, Domineering airborne Tencent Music's 7th place in the music chart by you. If the biggest gain of the Chinese music scene in 17 years is Mao Buyi, then the biggest surprise of the Chinese music scene in 18 years is undoubtedly Hu 66.
Some people say that today's Chinese music scene is no longer the era of superstars of the year, but "the music world has talents from generation to generation, each leading the way for a year or two". Some netizens seriously attacked such musicians' production methods, believing that many songs were too salivating and too commercial, and ignored the quality of the music itself. I have to say that from this point of view, some of the songs that have become popular through short videos this year do appear to be "malnourished" compared to some classic works. However, time is the best witness, from the perspective of promoting the development of the entire Chinese music scene, such a growth phenomenon also has its inevitability and significance, although this "barbaric growth" star-making method is slightly rough, but I believe that through the precipitation of time, young and excellent musicians like Cai Xukun, Meng Meiqi, Hu 66 will also break out of their own world in their own music field.
