Chapter 985: Fire
If you want to say how difficult the song of 2NE1 is, it's not, it's just that Kim Do-joon tried different styles, although they are all hiphop combinations, but relatively speaking, the rhythm of this song is still very fast, and when he was creating, he also felt refreshing, the song has a strong African style, plus the percussion accompaniment of reggae, it is also a big breakthrough!
After all, the women's hip hop group is not the same as the men, and it is definitely not possible to completely copy them with the set of BIGBANG, at least they need to be a little more ingenious, otherwise how can they be called YG productions.
Yang Hyun-suk's vision is so high, Kim Do-jun has also heard of it, the four girls of 2NE1 are very good in the hiphop class, especially the captain CL, even if it is a trainee, she can stand on the stage of the music program alone, with outstanding strength, no stage fright, flamboyant personality, and leadership potential, which is why she was chosen as the captain.
In the sbs song war in 07, when the yg family stage, as a trainee who participated in the stage and the only yg female singer to participate in the stage performance, CL performed freestylerap in the finale, which not only made many people remember the name CL, but also impressed Kim Do-joon, it turned out that yg also has such a powerful female rap singer.
Speaking of Korean female rap, there seems to be no controversy, recognized as No.1, Brother Tiger's wife Yoon Mi-rae, there is no doubt that the most powerful female rapper in South Korea, the absolute senior, together with her husband, can be called the highest combination in the Korean hiphop industry.
There are also juniors who want to catch up with her. It's really hard to be honest. It's like a mountain. was pressed in front of everyone, even if he listened to Yin Meilai's three words, he felt unattainable.
In Kim Do-joon's eyes, if dara and Park Chun represent the face of 2NE1, then CL represents the musicality of 2NE1, and it can be said that the existence of CL is the foundation of the hiphop group and the soul of 2NE1.
Hiphop singers are mostly spontaneous, and so is dancing. This is also why the dances of YG's singers are basically very scattered, not very coordinated, and sometimes the movements are not consistent.
It doesn't matter, as long as you relax, you're after music, and of course dance is really important, attracting the attention of fans, it's more natural to perform on stage, but people are like that. If you are good at one area, you will be lacking in others. There is no one in this world who does everything well!
If you spend a lot of time dancing, you may not be good at singing, or acting, participating in variety shows, stage plays, musicals, etc.
Single-mindedness is the only way to maximize one's talents.
If you have to evaluate Kim Do-joon, 2NE1 abandons appearance, and from the perspective of strength alone, CL and Kong Minzhi are what he admires the most.
CL is a rare all-round singer with good singing and dancing in the girl group he has ever seen, her voice is also good, she is very suitable for hiphop music, her singing is quite solid, the rap is very cool, she has learned dance since she was a child, and natural dance is not a problem, she and the first art of wondergirls, as well as Kim Hyun Ah, who quit the team, are all classmates in dance school, and once won the highest number of votes in the choreographer's vote with an overwhelming advantage, which Yang Hyun Suk later told Kim Do-joon.
CL's high creativity and plasticity can also allow her to quickly adapt to various styles, and she can also show her own personal characteristics, in general, she is a female singer with her own ideas.
With a high appearance, that is Sandara, before he came to South Korea as a trainee, he was already in the Philippines as a singer and actor, with super popularity, very delicate, small and straight nose, is responsible for the appearance of the group, a little childlike feeling, Kim Do-jun saw her for the first time, he thought she was very young, and then asked again, it turned out that she was four years older than herself, I really don't know if I don't know, age is really a big secret for women.
It's really not easy to write a song for the four of them, let alone the tune, the lyrics are very troublesome.
The table was already full of crumpled paper balls, and whenever one was not satisfied, Kim Do-jun did not tear it off directly, but angrily crumpled it into a ball, threw it to the side, didn't care about anything, took out a new piece of white paper, and continued to fill in the words.
Kim Do-joon is good at composing music first and then filling in the lyrics, and according to the melody and rhythm of the song, he began to think about what lyrics were appropriate in his mind.
First of all, Kim Do-joon has already thought of the name of this song, which is "Fire".
Just like the meaning of this English name, as soon as it debuts, it will be popular throughout the Korean entertainment industry, and the newcomer who debuted in YG must impress everyone.
The difficulty of a newcomer's debut is that everyone knows that among the 10 combinations, it would be good to have one of them succeed, and the rest are hanging half-dead, and there is not much popularity, nor many announcements, but there are still some fans who know that this situation is the most embarrassing.
Artists don't have enough announcements and itineraries, and they don't have enough income, they waste their time in vain, they want to give up, it's not realistic, how can they say that they have struggled as trainees for so many years, and now that they have made their debut, how can they say that they will give up if they give up!
But the feeling of waiting is really uncomfortable, because you don't know when the next announcement will come, and you have no choice but to wait.
Not all companies, like big brokerage companies, have enough resources, even if the debut song is not popular, they can make up for it through variety shows, hosting, acting cameos, etc., which will drive the popularity of the group.
Small brokerage companies really have no choice but to take some crooked ways, which is why the Korean entertainment industry often breaks out trainee scandals and artist scandals, the entertainment industry is like a big dye vat, it looks very beautiful, colorful, and full of temptation.
attracted countless people to jump inside, but when I really went in, I found that the reality was not as beautiful as I imagined, and not all people had such good luck. can make a smooth debut as an artist. Reap fame and fortune.
Most of them have to worry about their survival. Solving the problem of food and clothing is the top priority.
It's not that the media has done a survey, but among the artists who debuted, about 40% have to work part-time to supplement their living expenses.
Among them, the singers are the most, and they basically choose to work part-time at coffee shops and convenience stores, because their time is free and flexible. Unconstrained.
As for girls, many of them will go to bars, as for what to do, it's not clear, but Kim Do-joon also knows a little about this.
The darkness of the entertainment industry is beyond his imagination, even if he has the heart to help, there is nothing he can do, there are too many of them, I don't know how many young boys and girls there are in the whole of South Korea. I want to become a star artist, in order to realize this dream. Any method can be used.
Don't go to school, be a trainee, have plastic surgery, and even accompany the senior management of some brokerage companies, some artists will take advantage of these young girls, you know, many girls are not yet adults.
Jin Daojun didn't want to touch these before, and he didn't mess with himself, so he didn't have much to do with himself.
But now it seems that it is indeed as simple as I think, as long as I am still a member of the entertainment industry, I can't escape at all, just look at the text messages and calls on my mobile phone and know that you can't escape if you don't want to.
Kim Do-joon's private number, it can be said that few people know, but there are still these spam text messages sent over, which explains the problem.
Moreover, there is a very, very important thing, his sister Kim Hye Won also wants to enter the entertainment industry, and she also wants to become an actress.
For this reason, she also persuaded herself and her family to apply for the same university as herself, and every time she thought of this, Kim Do-jun covered her head and her head became bigger.
Although the little guy is smart, he is not deeply involved in the world, and he doesn't know how dark this society is, but he just thinks that he has two older brothers, and he can smoothly debut from the entertainment industry and become an artist.
Indeed, Kim Do-joon can and has the ability to do so, but what about after that?
What is your level, and if you go to an interview, will others use you? Even if it is for the sake of Kim Do-joon and Won Bin's face, please be the protagonist, not a supporting role.
The first time is okay, but what about the second time? Can you guarantee that you have the ability to stand in the entertainment industry, especially actors, in such a competitive and cruel place?
Thinking of his stupid sister at home, Kim Dojun shook his head decisively, this is absolutely impossible, he has been held in the palm of his hand by his family since he was a child.
Just like Xia Yan, the baby sister of Taeyeon's family, she has been pampered by her parents, brothers and sisters, just like the little princess of the family, not to mention how her temper is, it is difficult to say whether she can endure this hardship.
Actors have no day or night, as long as they are officially filming, everything has to be up to the director and writer, they didn't say stop, how could they rest.
The rest is not fixed, the meals are not fixed, the itinerary is not fixed, and even when the finishing is not fixed, I don't know.
If it's a weekly drama, then the filming schedule is even tighter, if that's really the case, Kim Do-joon really has to think about whether she should be allowed to make her debut!
Regardless of anything else, the little guy must be made an artist of CJES, so that she can be watched, she will not be messed around, her safety will be guaranteed, and nothing will happen.
In this way, you can rest assured, and your parents will also rest assured, with their own height to take care of, Huiyuan will not have any problems.
Second, the company can also have a special person in charge of her and provide her with enough resources, anyway, her dream is to be an actor, so it would be good to specialize in actors, and the rest will be put aside for the time being, and wait until she is interested.
Kim Do-jun is such a precious sister, it is impossible not to love her, and for her, you must be fully prepared.
Ten minutes didn't arrive, Kim Do-jun finally sighed and got up from the chair, it was really difficult, not that he couldn't write it, but to achieve his own satisfactory state, it was really not so easy.
Kim so-young sat on the sofa, looking at the magazine in his hand, except for going out halfway throughout the day, dealing with some things, helping Kim Do-joon buy cakes and coffee, and the rest of the time, he stayed in the back, barely talking, for fear that his voice would affect Kim Do-joon.
Even the ringtone of the mobile phone was set to vibrate.
glanced up at Kim Do-joon, knowing that his creative ideas might have fallen into a bottleneck, but there was nothing he could do, he couldn't help him with this kind of thing.
After thinking about it for a while, it's really time to rest, it's already more than ten o'clock, it's not too late to come back tomorrow, there are still two days to go, I have made an appointment to go out for a trip, the plane has been booked, basically nothing to worry about.
In the remaining two days, it will be OK to make this song, even if it is too late, it doesn't matter, after all, there is still some time before the agreed date.
Time is definitely enough, it's just that Kim Do-jun wants to finish this matter completely, and he doesn't want to worry about it because he went out on a trip.
"Daojun, why don't you take a break, it's not early, stand up and move!"
In the end, Kim so-young still spoke up, and if he didn't say it, Kim Do-joon couldn't even notice it.
"Hmmm! I know, I'm not in a good state today, there's nothing wrong with the song, but this lyrics are really a little annoying......"
Kim Do-jun let out a long sigh, stood up from the chair, stretched his waist, moved his body, sat there for a long time, the whole person was a little numb, and when he turned his body, he could still hear the bones making a "creaking" sound.
"Then why don't you come back tomorrow, get here today, go back and have a good rest, and recuperate, isn't it better!"
Kim so-young quickly got up from the sofa, picked up the coffee on the table, and handed it over.
Kim Dojun took it casually, bit the straw, and took a few sips, it was indeed a little difficult to rely on himself, did he have to find someone to help.
Originally, I also thought about looking for Li Minyu, but this guy has been a little busy lately, and he will enlist in the army next year, so his mind is still on this.
And most importantly, he doesn't fit the style of the YG family, pure K-pop music, which is not quite the same as the hiphop music of the YG family.
"Looks like I'm going to have to go to YG tomorrow, this lyric thing is a bit tricky, I need to find someone to help!"
Kim Do-joon lowered his head and muttered to himself.
"Help? Who is it? Kwon Ji-ryong or Sun? ”
Kim so young asked curiously, he has also been to YG company with Kim Do-jun a few times, and the only people he knows are those, and he usually hasn't had much contact, except for artists, there are really few.
"Go to Teddy, just find an opportunity, get to know him, help me make a call later, make an appointment with President Yang Hyun-suk, and go to YG tomorrow!"
Just now, the word Teddy suddenly popped up in Kim Do-joon's mind, as a flexible producer of YG company, basically YG's songs are produced by him and his team, if you ask him to help, there should be no problem, provided that Yang Hyun-seok agrees.
After getting up the next day, Kim Do-joon took the nanny car to YG's company and made an appointment to meet Teddy.
It's really better to be famous than to meet, I didn't expect such a famous producer in the Korean music industry to be quite low-key, staying in the company all day, rarely going out, and dressing up very simply, except for the hat, the rest is a black sweatshirt, which looks a little bit less like a producer, but like a computer hacker.
After a brief communication with Kim Do-jun, the two of them came to the spirit, and they felt a little late to see each other.
Kim Do-joon told him what kind of song he wanted to make, but the lyrics always didn't meet his requirements.
Combined with his ideas and Teddy's creative ideas, the two stayed together all day, and in this way, they finally completed the production of the whole song the day before they went on a trip.
The song, titled "Fire", was written by Kim Do-joon -- Kim Do-joon and Teddy co-produced. (To be continued......)
