What is rap?

Wikipedia's explanation is an expression of pop music, which originated in the 70s, but can be traced back to the 50s.

To be precise, this part of the passage sung in black music, after a long period of evolution, finally formed the early prototype of rap and established the style of rap.

Rap is very small, and it was only spread among black people at first.

But with the passage of time, more and more people like rap performance, and finally became a kind of popularity.

Of course, this is just one way Wikipedia says.

If you study carefully, you will find that the success of rap is because the number of black people is increasing, and it has even reached the point where it can affect the election of a country.

For example, the famous I have a dream is a commemorative speech delivered by a black civil rights activist in Washington in the early 60s.

Now many people hear that the wind is the rain, and they always like to explain everything with the right, but few people think about why it should be right.

Is it because these people are fools?Right for the sake of being right?
No, aside from this layer of camouflage on the outside, this is essentially an interest.

When the number of an ethnic group is large enough, even without the help of external forces, it is enough to form a popular culture by virtue of its own size.

This is true of rap, and so is the spread of correctness in the West.

The fundamental reason is that blacks can have their current status not because they have become stronger or successful, but because their population base is large enough.

Rap is essentially an evolution of black music.

The reason why rap can become popular is not because of how good rap music itself is.

Pop music such as rock, disco, Latin, blues, etc., any one of them has extremely brilliant works.

Rap can form a culture in foreign countries, essentially because there is fertile ground for survival.

Black music, the name essentially represents many things, and has formed a racial cultural symbol.

This is also the reason why domestic rap can only be niche music, because there is no black music in China, and there is no branch of black music-rap.

Just because it doesn't become popular doesn't mean no one will like it.

There are many ways of expressing music. If others like it, it doesn't mean that you should like it too, but this is only limited to interest.

If you really want to work in this field, or even want other people to like your musical expression?

That is to say, from the perspective of a creator, or even a promoter, it is necessary to carry out localized improvements.

For example, the Golden Arches of Neon likes to add tempura elements, and the third brother will launch vegan burgers for religious reasons. There are also improved versions in China, such as chicken rolls.

If you want more people to like rap, you must fit the market.

After all, if you want people to like you, you must at least trick them, right?

So Shengfan is very good. He is playing a very new but very advanced thing. In the traditional hardcore rap, he has added a lot of pop music elements that are more acceptable to laymen.

You can say that his rap is not pure, but I have to admit that this is a pretty good song.

Li Shiqing's eyes were a little dazed, but it wasn't because of Sheng Fan's singing.

Although he sang very well, Erli is a fairly classic rap song, which directly broke his inherent impression of Shengfan.

But compared to the song sung by Sheng Fan, what really made Li Shiqing feel rewarded was the way the other party expressed music.

In the dark, Li Shiqing seemed to feel something.

There was a faint glimmer of light, and she wanted to pierce it, but she always felt that something was missing. Just as she was thinking hard, Yu Zhen next to her patted Li Shiqing's shoulder excitedly:

"How about it, I'm right, Shengfan is super powerful!"

There was a glimmer of light in her dazed eyes, Li Shiqing woke up from her stupor, and turned her head to look at Yu Zhen next to her:
"Huh? Oh, I'm a little surprised."

With that said, Li Shiqing looked at Sheng Fan who sang on stage with a little emotion:

"I feel that Uncle Shengfan's singing state is completely different from his usual state. I have to say that his strength is really strong."

It is still the previous combat power ranking, assuming that my combat power is five, originally Uncle Shengfan is at the level of forty in my eyes, but now it has soared to more than ninety.

As for that Chivrov?

It's hard to say, I feel that Chivrov is better, but stand with Sheng Fan singing this song?

Li Shiqing feels that there is not much difference between the two sides, and there may be some style problems. For example, some people like the singing style of Shengfan, but some people like the hardcore black rap like Chiwolf.

But no matter what, now both of them belong to the same level of players.

Who will win in the end?
This is really hard to say.

On the other side, Yu Zhen, after listening to Li Shiqing's emotion, the corners of her mouth could not help but slightly turned up, with a smug smile on her face:

"Are you scared? Shishi, let me tell you, I also have a secret weapon."

Yu Zhen is indeed a carefree character, but she is not a fool.

Although the other party didn't say anything, she could feel Li Shiqing's worry about her group.

Why worry?
Not confident, I feel that my team will lose.

It's not easy for Yu Zhen to explain anything. She knows Shengfan, but she's not very familiar with it. In the previous performance of the opposite Chivrov, the other party showed super strength at that time!
In fact, Yu Zhen really wanted to tell Li Shiqing that among the rap contestants, there are many who are not good at creating, and many contestants on the scene belong to the type of slow work and meticulous work.

But Li Shiqing didn't know these things.

Not to mention understanding the rap industry, she had never even been exposed to rap music before.

So she couldn't explain it, and she couldn't explain it clearly.

It wasn't until Sheng Fan was fully fired, showing the true strength of these slow-burning rappers who are not good at writing, that Yu Zhen patted her chest, saying that the strength of her group is still very strong.

On the other side, looking at Yu Zhen with a confident smile.

Li Shiqing and his gang couldn't help but stare suspiciously at each other:

"Wait, what do you mean, you are also hiding a big move, right?"

Yu Zhen chuckled, trying to put on a modest appearance, but the smug smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be covered up no matter what:
"It's not a big move, it's just that before me, I wrote a song, a very satisfying song."

Li Shiqing was silent. The astonishing performance of Shengfan made her feel the gap between herself and professional rappers. She thought that the only outlier in her group was Uncle Shengfan.

But look at Yu Zhen's expression?
Good guy, this guy is probably also a dark horse!

If Yu Zhen's strength is also very strong, what about Zhong Qi, who had performed quite well before?
With a somewhat hesitant look on her face, Li Shiqing patted Yu Zhen on the shoulder, and pointed to the taciturn, ordinary-looking middle-aged man in a black short-sleeved T-shirt not far away:
"I have a question for you, Zhenzhen, how is Zhong Qi's strength?"

Yu Zhen was taken aback for a moment, she looked at Zhong Qi who was not far away, and her expression became a little more dignified:
"It's hard to say, I don't have much contact with him on weekdays, but his strength must not be underestimated."

Li Shiqing was a little puzzled, and asked inexplicably:
"Why are you so sure? Even though you said you didn't have much contact, but you can clearly judge the strength of the players. Is there any trick?"

In fact, Li Shiqing wanted to ask this question early in the morning. She was very curious about what basis Yu Zhen judged a player's strength, appearance?style?Or something else?

Why can Yu Zhen judge, but she can't see anything?

Facing Li Shiqing's doubts, Yu Zhen didn't hide anything, and replied quite straightforwardly:

"Actually, it's nothing, these things can be analyzed.

I like to make friends, I can chat with every player, and I know something about Zhong Qi.

He is different from many players, rap is not a job, but his hobby, you also know that interest is the best teacher, and Zhong Qi got into rap very early.

He can persist for so many years, and he can still be selected by the mentor, there must be something! "
