According to Liu Qingshan's program planning, not all new songs will be included in this trip. Many of his, Jin Xishan and Taylor's old songs will appear more or less.
For example, tonight, there are no new songs belonging to them, and they only focus on two new singers, Zhang Liangyin and Yu Kewei.
After this performance, the two songs written for them can be later recorded as official versions. Especially for Yu Kewei, who has not yet made her official debut, that song will become her debut song.
When we arrived at the tavern, there were not many guests inside because it was dinner time, but the lounge at the back was already overcrowded.
This is because Liu Qingshan did not strictly require the tavern owner not to disclose it to the public. Moreover, one of the purposes of this trip shooting was to have an opportunity to communicate with local musicians in the cities he passed through.
Therefore, the beautiful female boss called and informed the musicians she knew, as well as the resident band and singer.
This also caused the backstage rest area to be overcrowded for a time. Fortunately, the place was big enough and it didn't seem particularly crowded.
When Liu Qingshan and his team arrived, it was said that it was him, Jin Xishan, and Taylor. Even the entire band members were big names in the industry, which excited a lot of people.
Naturally, there are some musicians who have some artistic temperament, but his or her inner arrogance is nothing in front of Liu Qingshan and others.
However, he had all the information about the future music industry that Xiaoxing had, and he actually recognized a person among this group of people who would become famous in the future.
This person is Xie Di, a prospective college student who is still in his third year of high school, because he will take the college entrance examination in a few months.
This person is
A rapper, he had already composed his first original song last year, when he was a sophomore in high school.
In addition to going to school and writing songs, he also joined a rap club in Rongcheng and participated in some local rap activities many times.
At the same time, this person was still singing in a bar in Rongcheng, and this bar was one of his performance venues.
Xie Di didn't have tattoos all over his body at this time, and he still looked like a student on the outside. However, because he had performed in the society early, he still had a little more maturity on his body.
After he met Liu Qingshan and his group, he felt a little unsocial and aloof, but he could not be called tsundere. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe him as not being sociable.
When someone introduced him, Liu Qingshan specifically asked him about the rap in Rongcheng dialect, and with a glass of beer, he smoothly let him perform a short piece of his own work.
Then he said: "Actually, I wrote a dialect rap song after I came to Rongcheng. However, because my Sichuan dialect is not authentic, the intonation in my later performance will not be correct. Don't laugh at me!"
All the locals were surprised, because dialect rap is very popular in Rongcheng and even the entire Sichuan Province, but it is limited to various underground performance venues or bars, and only people who play music are more familiar with it.
As for Liu Qingshan's rapping ability, he is at the level of a master who can be ranked on the charts in the United States. Even local rappers who think they are awesome will regard him as an industry benchmark in this music genre.
Many of these underground singers who think highly of themselves will even put their
Rap works are regarded as the goal of learning to sing. Judging from the look in their eyes at this time, it is obvious that Xie Di is one of them.
After expressing his surprise, the person asked about the reason for his choice.
Liu Qingshan laughed and said: "I think rap with a Sichuan accent is very suitable for this form of music. Rap must take into account its syllables, pronunciation methods and many other language expertise. I may not really be able to say this. Too many, because I don’t have much knowledge about local dialects, and a dialect in a region must be a cultural expression formed in the local cultural background.”
Shady understood what he meant, and the communication process at this time was within the lens of the camera.
Even though he is still young and has no relevant interview experience, he clearly knows that the foreshadowing effect of these words is still necessary, otherwise it is easy to offend people in other areas.
Therefore, he did not rush to interrupt, but made a listening expression of nodding and cooperating.
Liu Qingshan continued: "So, I am not qualified to make any judgment on a certain dialect, but I happened to be exposed to a period of your dialect environment. I have tried this rap method before, and I personally think it is quite suitable for it. All types!”
The female boss couldn't help but ask: "Some people think that our Sichuan and Chongqing dialects are suitable for rap, but the Northeast dialect is not suitable. The reason is because of the influence of Uncle Benshan's sketch. After all, the humor in it is too strong and witty. The feeling will overwhelm what the music itself wants to express!”
“No one is doing rap in Northeastern dialects or very few are doing it, at least not for everyone to understand or even be familiar with.
it. But that doesn’t mean it’s not suitable. Whether a dialect song can be welcomed by everyone and whether the dialect can be understood by everyone is a very key reason. "
"Yes, compared to other dialects, the dialects of our Sichuan Province and Chongqing City are easier to understand, which means that this dialect is closer to Mandarin, and people outside this area can also understand it. "
"However, we must also add that those capable singers present it with their own abilities. When everyone listens to it, they will naturally like this kind of dialect rap. As far as I know, everyone is now The so-called Northeastern dialect heard on TV programs, live broadcasts, etc. is not actually the purest Northeastern dialect."
"Not really? How is that possible?"
"I'm very familiar with Uncle Benshan. He is a Northeastern native born and raised in Tieling. He told me this once at the wine table, and he spoke a few pure Northeastern dialects on the spot. It was really difficult to understand. And everyone also You will find that even the impure Northeastern dialect we heard on the program has many words that are far from Mandarin, and it is difficult for us to understand its meaning without special explanation."
"The dialects here are also in a similar situation, right?"
"Well, there are a lot of pure local dialects in every province, but there are many dialects that lack the fierceness in rap! I think that the Sichuan dialect has that slightly fierce pronunciation, which brings out the fierceness in rap. I feel that the gangster temperament is vividly displayed. My statement is a bit one-sided, but it is by no means belittling your dialect!"
Many people at the scene expressed the same meaning: "I understand, I understand, Mr. Liu is just discussing the matter!"
Liu Qingshan nodded: "I'm from Shandong Province. I can roughly understand most dialects in other provinces, but I don't think the Shandong dialect is suitable for rap, because I personally think that the pronunciation is too It’s more down-to-earth, but it always seems to be missing a little bit of the higher-end sense of traditional rap perception!”
Xie Di obviously agrees with this statement: "Rap music is imported after all. Whether we admit it or not, it is necessary to have some foreign style in it. For example, the appearance of English words in the lyrics and the use of Shandong accent will remind people of Northeast China. The words are so funny! I’m not belittling other dialects, I can only say that each has its own strengths, just like the dialect pronunciation in Sichuan Province is not suitable for broadcasting and hosting.”
Liu Qingshan gave him a thumbs up: "The rap style that is popular in China and even the world today is undoubtedly trap. In my opinion, it's not cool if it's not flattering. The dialect of Chongqing, Sichuan Province is really suitable for the trap style. Trap's style, which tends to be psychedelic, lazy, and indulgent but still high and explosive, is really suitable to be combined with this type of dialect. This may also involve the language structure of the dialect, etc., but as a This seems to be really comfortable for fans of Chinese music styles.”
His words were met with applause.
Liu Qingshan waved his hand and continued: "I am not qualified to comment on which dialect is more suitable for rap, but I still go back to the previous sentence. Rap and hip-hop have just begun to develop in China, and everything remains to be explored.
At this stage, without a corresponding leader, it is absolutely difficult for one's own dialect to play a representative role. Maybe there will be some master in Shandong Province, Northeast China or other provinces who will lead the trend of dialects in the future. Let’s wait and see! But without the guidance of outstanding singers, everything is still unknown! "
There was excitement in the tone of the female boss: "That will all happen in the future, but everyone here knows that Mr. Liu's dialect rap today will be the first to popularize Sichuan dialect rap!"
Liu Qingshan smiled and said: "Maybe. In fact, every time I go to a city, I will try my best to help promote it. Whether it is dialect or geographical features, there are many models to promote development, and it is not necessarily limited to rap. As for music! For example, dialect folk songs from Shaanxi Province and Tibetan areas, I regard them as rare folk essences!"
Maybe there will be people at the scene who have reservations about the content of Liu Qingshan's tact and philanthropy, but as long as they are not stupid, no one will bring it up in person.
He doesn't care about other people's opinions. In his opinion, this kind of fraternity is a matter of pattern. Depending on the position, there will be a big gap in the one-sidedness of the problem.
Jin Xishan understood the pronunciation of his words best, so he added with a smile: "I prefer the Northeastern accent. Which type of dialect is more suitable for them?"
"Shout out to Mai!" Liu Qingshan's statement made many people feel bright. "Of course Errenzhuan is also included, but local opera does not belong to the scope of our discussion today, because time has long proven that those language operas are Excellent sex!”
Then he stood up and said, "Okay.
, I think we’ll just talk about it here first. There are a few new songs that I just composed yesterday. The singers need some time to rehearse so that tonight’s performance won’t be too embarrassing! "
The female boss was quick-sighted and immediately stood up and hurried everyone else into the hall outside.
At this time, there were more and more people in the hall. In order to ensure that the customer base would not be lost, she immediately arranged for several resident singers to perform on the stage.
