I never disagree Ni Jiu Xiang Ge Xiao Hai is not nice, I would
even say it's almost crap. Only Phil Chang will sing that. In fact,
I don't even like Jian Chi Dao Di, the lyrics were supposed to be
encouraging, but I think the whole thing was not well-thought out,
more like inserting a few words here and there to force the meaning
out.
His 1st outing was certainly much better, esp his other non-zhu da
tracks. The production of his 2nd album lacks sincerity, I wonder
how much is Xu Huan Liang involved. Most probably not much, because
it is really much weaker than the previous one which XHL oversaw
the whole production. Hope the next album will be much more better,
XHL will need the money to clear debts! He still owes local banks a
lot of money because of the big loans he took to groom and promote
AhDu. That's the difference when you don't have a huge backing like
Sun YanZi. I wonder if the Li brothers didn't have Warner to
support SYZ, would they also risk bankruptcy like Xu Huan Liang to
promote SYZ? They themselves admitted they believed SYZ will not be
as big as she is now if they were to promote her themselves.
I know AhDu is not the best, but I understand how difficult it is
for XHL to take such a big gamble on AhDu. The efforts by him and
XHL already won me over. Too bad no one did the same for Dreamz FM,
Hype Records rather promote "singers" like Phyllis Quek. What a
shame.
