He is a legend of the dark horse in the music industry. Every song of his song is a king. His record sales exceed Jay Chou without publicity. Zhao Benshan uses his lyrics on the Spring Festival Gala. Zhang Yimou specially invited him to help when he sang the famous song " The First Snow in 2002 ", ten thousand people sang in the audience. Once the new album was released, it quickly soared to major music rankings. The KTV sing charts were the first, and his songs were sung on the streets and alleys.
also makes some singers dissatisfied.
He is the singer Daolang .
Daolang became popular in the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places with the song "The First Snow in 2002". It is still a myth in the music industry, from becoming popular to retirement. What exactly happened in the middle? Some people say that he is not suitable for development in the entertainment industry, while others say that because he touched someone else's cake, well-known singers jointly boycotted him.
June 22, 1971. Daolang was born in a literary and artistic family in Neijiang, Sichuan.
Both parents work in the art troupe, one is responsible for shading the other is a dancer. In such a family, Daolang and his brother were well influenced.
often follow your parents to learn to imitate them. And he slowly set a goal for himself to become a true singer.
But the adolescence Daolang was very rebellious. He was always with a group of gangsters, so he didn't even finish high school. When he was 15 years old, he told his brother's girlfriend that he was furious and beat Daolang in anger. Of course, his parents favored his young and ignorant brother, and his brother chose to run away from home in anger.
Unfortunately, my brother died in a car accident. When Dao Lang knew that his brother was unfortunately killed, he was completely confused! It was my own unintentional statement that killed my brother.
Until Daolang became famous 18 years later, he wrote such a text, "My curse was fulfilled, I killed my brother, and my selfishness and hatred killed him."
Starting from this year, Daolang began his wandering life. Because my brother said when he was alive that you must become a singer. Daolang embarked on the journey with his brother's sustenance and his dream. It was also at this time that he wore a black baseball cap.
In a wandering and embarrassing life, Daolang met his first wife Yang Na. The two fell in love at first sight and soon got married. Soon, he gave birth to a lovely daughter and became an enviable family of three. After unexpected events, Fengyun had just given birth to his daughter more than a month after he gave birth to his daughter, but Yang Na abandoned Daolang and her daughter.
It was even more darker at this time, the band also disbanded. Facing your lovely daughter and your own musical dream. Daolang did not recover and made a journey to Hainan. With his own talent, he became the keyboardist of the band "Son of Earth". And this is also his most comfortable life outside.
Time comes in 1993, and Daolang meets a noble man, who is also his future lover. She is Zhu Mei. If Daolang can achieve what she is today, it is inseparable from her. Zhu Mei is a music lover, Xinjiang native .
After getting along slowly, the two got together. In this way, Zhu Meidaolang and his family boarded the train to the west and came to Urumqi. It was this decision that changed Daolang's fate. Soon Daolang founded Northwest Music Studio, and released its original CD in 2001, but only 2,000 copies were sold. But Daolang was not decadent, but went to the library, walked next door, and went to the grassland to collect folklore at the home of Uyghur . It is precisely because of these sinking folk songs. In 2004, "The First Snow in 2002" became popular all over the country from Xinjiang.
You should know that that era was not as developed as the Internet today. Moreover, that year, , Chinese music scene, , was a fight between gods. There was the king of heaven, , Jacky Cheung, , and then the little king of heaven, Jay Chou, "Qi Li Xiang".
This album surpassed the crowd that year without any sales advertisements. At that time, Jay Chou's Qilixiang sold 2.6 million copies worldwide, while Daolang's "The First Snow in 2002" sold more than 2.7 million copies in the mainland alone. This is just the data of the genuine album, and the sales of pirated albums exceeded 10 million.
Another album of his same year, "Kashgar Populus Eucalyptus", also created sales of millions. Such fierce results had a significant impact on the mainland music scene at that time.
The sudden popularity made Daolang helpless. Regarding the fame and fortune brought by the popularity, Daolang still prefers the peaceful life he devoted himself to creating before.
without hesitation said that Daolang is a genius who is rare in a century. His singing is not only beautiful, but also the lyrics of the story. It is very picturesque and touched countless fans.
What people unexpectedly are that the big sister in the music industry, Na Ying, , once publicly boycotted Daolang.
This incident happened in 2010. The Fengyun Music Chart . As the chairman of the judge, Na Ying completely disagrees with Daolang: "Although Daolang's album sells a lot, it doesn't mean anything. He doesn't have an aesthetic point of view. It's just Daolang's sales, I shut up again. He is indeed none of us have sold him, but we can't just look at the sales."
This is what Na Ying said back then.
and Wang Feng and Yang Kun are relatively gentle, just saying "Daolang's music is low-level, theirs needs to be advanced."
Is it a low-level song that ordinary people like to listen to?
Then I would rather be a low-level person.
But Daolang didn't care about their statement at all, but instead lived a quiet and comfortable life he liked.
You should know that with his appeal at that time, as long as he is willing, his fame and popularity will definitely not be inferior to that of some popular singers, but he did not have it before or after becoming famous.
This is an era when everyone wants to be Van Gogh, but no one is willing to "cut his ears".
This incident has aroused the dissatisfaction of countless fans and has been retorted by Dao Lang.
The truth about Na Ying and the famous singer boycotting Daolang was also exposed, and I realized why Daolang retired for many years.
Looking at the music scene in that era, Na Ying has long been a famous first-line singer. Why did she publicly boycott Daolang? The media has reported that Daolang is a self-taught talent and has not received professional education, and is regarded as a grassroots school. The other is the academic school, which is a musician who has been studied through professional education. In that era, they looked down on grassroots singers.
In fact, there were many grassroots schools at that time, including Phoenix Legend, Love Song Prince Zheng Yuan, Huanzi , Liuzhe , Panglong , etc., but in terms of influence, only Phoenix Legend is well-known.
Another undeniable reason is that Daolang was so popular back then, and his songs were all over the streets and alleys. But this was not a good thing for the fiercely competitive music scene at that time. The key was that the top Hong Kong and Taiwan musicians in the pop music circle in that era, such as Alan Tam, Lee Zongsheng , Jackie Chan , Zhao Liying , all like Daolang and Daolang's songs, which made famous mainland singers feel very uncomfortable. After all, Phoenix Legend is the runner-up of the Avenue of Stars and a popular group of ethnic groups. Let’s look at Daolang, you became a monk halfway through and sang some songs of “Grand Hats”, so why do you just overwhelm us? Just like some people who listen or do European and American music now, they always feel that they are advanced and despise Chinese songs.
Even Pang Long, who was popular all over the country, said that no one of us can sell the sales of the record. This is actually the greatest affirmation of Daolang.
Slowly, Daolang disappeared in this huge vortex of interests and became a retired singer, like a hermit.
What advanced works do you have in the so-called advanced Na Ying?
Where can Daolang's works and influence be proved with his actions. The birth of literary and artistic works depends on the popular appreciation of the people, and his songs were popular throughout the country in the era of underdeveloped Internet.Daolang really proved his talent with his strength and was loved by the general public in the Chinese music scene. This is victory.
During this period, Daolang did not give up on his favorite music. In 2020, Daolang, who had been missing in 2021, brought us new songs. Coincidentally, Wang Feng also released a new album "2020" and everyone judged it.
And has Na Ying and Yang Kun have new albums over the years? All kinds of variety shows have made a lot of money. Lying on the credit book to make a living.
In contrast, Daolang's new album has brought us a little different. Not only has countless fans sighed, it has been 18 winters since the Daolang’s popularity. With the arrival of spring.
Where are we scattered when we have heard his songs?
Do you still remember the song "The First Snow in 2002"?
Do you still remember the song " Impulsive Punishment "?
Will you still cry when you listen to the song "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing"?
I will slowly fall asleep listening to " West Sea Love Song "!
