'Shaolin Soccer' – Stephen Chow brings comic style to soccer on Paramount+
‘Shaolin Soccer’ – Stephen Chow brings comic style to soccer on Paramount+
In the early 2000s, Hong Kong comedy star Stephen Chow stole Jackie Chan’s crown as Hong Kong’s clown prince of kung fu comedy. He was dubbed the Jim Carrey of Hong Kong by American critics, but that completely misses his appeal. Sure, Chow is a brilliant physical comedian with an unpredictable streak, but he also has the spirit of an overly excitable kid (even at 40), and he was more than just…

What kind of music do you listen to? And got any recommendations? Anything obscure or not talked about enough in your opinion?
I have pretty basic ass music taste, tbh!! Like don’t be mistaken lol. With Chinese music, I like folk and folk rock for the most part LOL. Songs my dad used to play on loop on long drives 😆. I guess some of those might be considered obscure to non Chinese people, assuming they probably get into contemporary Chinese music first (but I'm sure my Chinese/diaspora followers will know these... maybe?)
Basically I inherited my Dad's music taste
^ This was like the most hype song I listened to as a kid LOL
Dao Lang is also a favorite I got from my dad lol. For younger folk/rock singers, I really like 赵雷/Zhao Lei and 刘森/Liu Sen (华北浪革).
Li Ronghao is another younger favorite artist of mine.
I would also say that any longer songs that I've translated (#music tag) is one that I like also.
I don't think I listen to anything too obscure non-Chinese wise. I listen to a lot of like Motown, dad rock, 60s/70s folk rock, basically. I dont listen to the radio or streaming platforms, so there’s only so many ways I can find new music. I like 90s/early 2000s pop and R&B lol. 90s kpop also. One of the CDs my dad used to play on loop was Celine Dion's album "Let's Talk About Love", so I have every track in that album imprinted permanently in my brain. Uhh… I like Marc Anthony’s earlier stuff also, like Contra la Corriente, basically.
Anna Leone is a newer indie artist I like.
JMSN has a couple songs I like.
Vicky Tafoya is also a newer artist I found recently.
And then I guess I'll leave off with the two songs I've probably been listening to the most recently:
...and Stevie Wonder - Master Blaster (Jammin') (whoops, went past the video link limit). Charles Bradley is also a singer I discovered recently (too late, tho, RIP).
Also Yoon Jongshin, Wheesung, and Lim Chungjang are the kind of Korean singers I listen to (off the top of my head). Tears at the End of the Sky by Junyfore is one of my favorite songs. I like Korean rock as well (blanking on a bunch of songs names right now, though—I'd have to check my phone because it's not in my current library, and that's basically what I listened to for a while after I stopped listening to kpop so much.
