The opening of China Entertainment Group gave Jay Chou a head-on confrontation

Chapter 710: What era is it now? Are you still listening to traditional hip-hop?

"Is such a person qualified to be the editor-in-chief?"

"God, I couldn't write a report that was as tantamount to surrender."

"It's only been a week, how can you say Spike has won?"

"..."

Tissi Cohen cursed.

She could swear to God that if this damn editor was in front of her right now, she would kick his ass hard with her boots!
The album sales difference is only a few hundred thousand copies. Although it seems like a small difference, it does not mean that her idol Eminem has completely lost hope.

On the contrary, she thought there was great hope of catching up.

Yes, she admitted that there were quite a few songs in Spike's new album that were worth listening to, but judging from the album alone, Eminem was obviously more aggressive - this was the true meaning of hip-hop.

At least that was the truth in her perception.

In the United States, hip-hop music has a huge audience because everyone is tired of so-called pop songs.

She thinks so.

Although Spike has also played hip-hop, she does not approve of it——

The hip-hop music this man plays is absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not hip-hop, absolutely not!
"Tissy, what are you doing? Come on, there's a Ford outside."

"Okay, okay, okay. I know, I know. You're so long-winded."

An orange jacket tied around the waist swayed as the woman stood up. Tissi, holding a toothpick in her mouth, shook her ponytail behind her head. The white vest stained with a little oil added a bit of wildness to her. "What's wrong with the car?"

"It wouldn't start, the radio didn't work, and the front tire needed a new one. But most importantly, it crashed."

Led by a colleague, they arrived in front of a yellow Ford Mustang. Tisci, swinging a wrench in her hand from time to time, looked around the car as usual: "Did this car just come from Cybertron?"

We can't say that the collision was horrific, but at least it's unbearable to look at.

"It was hit by a car race."

My colleague is used to it: "It is said that Spike's fans and Eminem's fans were racing, and the car was hit by the latter who lost control."

“…Fuck! Why wasn’t it that pretty boy’s fan who crashed into the car?”

When Tisi heard the man's name again, she wiped her nose. Although she cursed, her hands moved skillfully.

"Why do you have such a big opinion of people? I think Spike's new album is great."

The male colleague who knew that the woman was an Eminem fan did not forget to tease her: "Don't be so narrow-minded, Tissi, America is big enough to accommodate both Spike and Eminem."

The only response he got was a raised middle finger.

Tissi, feeling unlucky, had to work as a car repairman to make a living. However, when she went to her regular bar after get off work to relax with a few drinks, the music playing on the bar's dance floor made her feel very familiar -

“Boom boom boom, gotta get-get!

“Boom boom boom, gotta get-get!

"Boom boom boom, gotta get-get!"

It was the same dynamic tune that I had listened to countless times. The colorful lights on the dance floor flickered in sync with the DJ's music, and most of the people in the bar were twisting their bodies crazily to the rhythm of the song.

The female DJ, who was only wearing a tube top, followed the male partner beside her and made gestures of pressing down the rhythm, which led the whole audience!
"Yo, I got that hit that beat the block
"You can get that bass overload

"I got the that rock and roll
“That future flow (and future hip-hop rhythm)…”

The melody, rhythm and arrangement are like a virus that has been embedded in the human body. Zhou Yi's auto-tuned voice quickly sings the rap lyrics that are extremely relevant to his personal experience.

The debut album's "Yeah", a single with a strong sense of rhythm, won the championship for 12 consecutive weeks and shocked the whole Europe and the United States. "How Long", which is called a textbook for the use of bass, made countless bass lovers cry.
There is no need to say much about the rock music in his second album. The miraculous five number one singles from his first album directly put him on the path to godhood.

Combined with the lyrics, there is no doubt that the so-called "future hip-hop rhythm" refers to the song called "boom boom pow" in the third album.

Of course, in Tissi's opinion, this song is just Zhou Yi's wanton mockery and showing off.

"I'm so 3008, You so 2000 and late!"

Even though it was just a small bar, when this line was sung, most people cheered and sang along.

"Eminem!"

"Fuck you!"

"Eminem!" "Loser!"

"Eminem!"

"son of a bitch!"

The DJ shouted a sentence, and dozens of people in the dance floor shouted in response. The direct insults made Tisi speechless.

Although she knew that Eminem was not 100% welcome in Detroit, when did this become Spike's bar?
"Hey Tissi, why are you here?"

As she was cursing inwardly, a familiar voice came from behind her, making her turn her head to look in the direction of the voice - her drinking partner.

"This is the closest place to my home. Where else can I go if I'm not here?"

"No no no, I mean why don't you go to a bar that supports Eminem instead of coming to this bar that supports Spike."

"???"

I just worked overtime for a few more days to repair the car, what happened???
When did this become a Spike-themed bar?

"You don't know - oh, right, you didn't come last time. The amount of money spent here in the name of Spike was the highest last Sunday, so for the next three days this will be the home ground of Spike fans..."

"..."

? !
Not a buddy?

Has the conflict reached this point now?

Tisci, who thought she was radical enough, was dumbfounded after hearing the reason.

It started with a promotion at a bar in Detroit that was just trying to join in the fun. Those who spent the most could enjoy three days of idol home shows, with discounts on drinks - and then it got out of control.

Fans of both sides, who have already embarked on the path of binary opposition under the instigation of the media, cannot afford to lose face.

So, you finish your performance and I come on stage. Today you win here, tomorrow I win over there, anyway, I can never be a coward.

Tissi took a sip of wine and was a little bit unbelievable. When she looked up, the TV in the bar just ended the commercial and replayed a music talk show that had just aired this morning. The guest happened to be Spike, who made her feel unhappy.

Wearing a casual shirt and beach pants, people who didn't know him would think he was on vacation when he appeared on the show.

"Spike, just yesterday, 50 Cent said that your hip-hop song production is shit compared to Eminem. Did you know that?" The host, who was also dressed casually, was the first to ask this controversial topic.

After expressing admiration in the Chicago Sun-Times on the 21st, 50 Cent, whose reputation is now badly damaged, publicly criticized Zhou Yi's new crown single on the 22nd, saying that he did not understand hip-hop at all, was just a piece of shit on the side of the road, and the addition of auto tune directly ruined the song.

"The brain of a person who was almost beaten to death is like this. His brain capacity is very small and he is completely unable to accept the fact that he has been abandoned by the times."

On the TV screen, Zhou Yi criticized 50 Cent with one blow and also made a mockery: "Look up at the calendar. It's already 2004. What era is it? Are you still listening to traditional rap?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

"…Uh, sorry Spike, if I understand you correctly, you mean-"

"Auto-tune technology is an auxiliary technology, and it will definitely continue to be passed down in the future. I have already produced textbook-like production results, and those who come after me can follow my example.

“Like I wrote in the lyrics, this is a song from the future.

"Moreover, I can say with certainty that this new auto tune technology will continue to be popular not only in 2004, but also in 2014, 20 years from now, or even in 2024, years from now."

Zhou Yi in front of the camera spoke in a decisive tone, holding up two fingers and said with certainty: "In other words, the technical production of my song can be said to be groundbreaking and 20 years ahead."

Depend on!
So fucking crazy!
Still 20 years ahead!
You think your refurbished auto tune is worthy of this?!
Pooh!
Tissi spat.

She wondered if the man was drunk before going on stage, as he actually dared to say by name that the new auto tune technology he created would be popular for at least 20 years.

20 Ah.

The production technology from 20 years ago has now been swept into the garbage heap.

The American music scene was already so intense in 2004, what will it be like in 2024?
This is why she doesn’t like Zhou Yi, he’s too talkative and pretentious.

Damn, I hate people like this who pretend to be cool the most!
