Looking at the people who were so happy, Alex was a little puzzled. He should have imitated a lot like B Bao just now, right, it doesn't make sense that these people don't like it after seeing it, the reaction is there, but it's wrong.

"Why are you laughing? Why laugh! ”

"Haha, the action you just made is so cute, but it's just a big difference from your usual image."

It was Mark, who explained to him, and this guy has always been the Carpenter brothers' ** music producer. Mark knows Alex's personality very well, and he won't be angry about this little thing.

Faced with their opinions, Alex also knew that he was not suitable to sing this song called "Baby". This is B's famous work, and the mV of this song had one billion hits on the Internet, and it was once the mV with the largest number of viewers in history.

If the person singing is not a cute little boy, it doesn't feel right at all.

Mark thought about it for a moment, and finally decided, "Richard, you can sing this song." ”

"Me? Let me sing? ”

Richard was a little surprised, he was not interested in such a song, and if he was asked to sing it, it might not have a good effect.

"Yes, if Richard sings it, maybe that's the way to go." Alex also expressed his agreement with the decision.

"Alright then, I'll sing this. It's just, Alex, can you still get a song? Otherwise, you wouldn't have shown up on the album this time. ”

Mark also has some headaches about this problem. He knew that the three Carpenter siblings were golden signs, and the absence of one would reduce the sales of the record a lot.

Alex in particular, if he hadn't appeared, maybe his sales would have decreased by more than 1o%.

The problem was quickly resolved, and Alex said, "It doesn't matter, in fact, this song should have some more content, so let me play the role of rapper." ”

"Rap?" After listening to this, everyone felt a little strange. I don't understand what Alex means at all, is it singing while talking?

"Yes, rap! You will understand it completely when you listen to it. ”

Alex then completes the rap part: "When I was 13 years old, I met my first love, and no one could drink my baby to compare. No one can intervene between us, no one can stop us. She made me crazy, oh, I'm like a star-chaser. She can keep me awake during the day......"

After listening to this part of the rap, a strange feeling appeared in everyone's hearts. It's like eating a food called "fried ice cream", which is simply putting together two things that can't be mixed together, and surprisingly, it's still delicious.

In this era, there may already be an art form of rapping, but it has not yet been widely circulated. The origins of rap music can be traced back to the passages chanted in the roots of black music. It wasn't until the 7o years that rap music officially established its own style. As for now, no one dares to record such a record line.

Of course, Alex's rap content cannot be copied completely, for example, the "Starbucks" mentioned in it has to be changed. It's still the 50s, and Starbucks won't have until the 70s. He replaced it with another word, and the meaning was the same.

"Well, what do you guys think of adding this rap content?"

"Ai, Alex, your part of the rap, alas, what should I say."

Mark's face became very strange, and he looked as if he was constipated. He really doesn't know how to talk about it, and if Alex's rap is not good, that's it. It's not good to say it directly, and I'm sure Alex won't feel like it either.

The thing is, this rap sounds pretty good. Alex has a clear bite and a strong sense of rhythm, sounding like big beads and small beads falling on a jade plate, clanging and dingding.

In this way, he felt embarrassed. As a music producer, you have to be responsible for the quality and sales of your records. From his heart, after adding this rap, the quality must have gone up. But the sales volume, it is difficult to say, what he can accept does not mean that the market can accept it.

Normally, he will always choose to guarantee sales and give up quality. However, his instincts told him that if he did that, he would be very wrong. An ambivalence that prevents him from making a choice.

On the contrary, Richard quickly made a decision, and he said happily: "Okay, then Alex will be in charge of the rap part." Your form of music sheet xiàn is very interesting, I like it! ”

Karen also applauded happily, she and Richard are both young, and their ability to accept this new thing is still relatively strong.

Seeing this situation, Mark couldn't open his mouth to oppose it again, and he reluctantly agreed. However, he still managed to find a compromise solution, that is, to add more versions. After he had Alex and Richard record a full version, he asked Alex to record a non-rap version.

"Why should I record a non-rap version. Wouldn't it be better to have Richard do the recording? Alex felt a little strange, and he thought that since the song was not suitable for him, he should simply let someone else sing it.

Mark explains: "If you just listen to the sound, your version feels good. ”

For such a statement, the Carpenter brothers are also acceptable. They quickly recorded the song, and in the middle of the recording, a man with black-rimmed glasses and a somewhat wooden look walked in.

"Alex, someone's looking for you!" In between recordings, Mark said through the microphone.

At this time, Alex was already planning to rest, so he simply slipped out of the studio under the pretext.

The guy with black-rimmed glasses, as soon as he saw Alex, said nervously, "Hi! I, I'm here to find ......."

Alex hurriedly stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "I know, your name is Buddy!" I asked you to come to me, don't be nervous, let's find a place to chat. ”

Buddy is a tall man with a Chinese face, a thick head, and a part of black rolled up in front of his forehead. His eyes looked a little melancholy, but when he laughed, it was like the sun shining through the dark clouds on the earth.

Alex's handshake with Buddy was just an ordinary handshake, and he didn't deliberately copy the other party's information energy. However, the reason why he called Buddy over was that he thought Buddy's singing was good and tasteful.

Even though Buddy was making peace to Elvis Elvis at the time, in Alex's senses, he was not inferior to Elvis Elvis at all. Because of this, Alex wanted to talk to Buddy to see if the other party had real materials.

Now Alex can have a vague feeling for the people around him even if he doesn't use his abilities, and that feeling is like seeing the essence of the other party through the fog. This is a feeling that is very well described in words, and if you have to put it in a noun, it is best to describe it with a "sixth sense".

Of course, this feeling comes and goes, and it's not something Alex can control now. When he saw Buddy, he was touched by this feeling. To further confirm his feelings, he called Buddy over and had a face-to-face chat.

Soon, Alex unloaded Buddy's psychological baggage, and the two began to talk like old friends. Sometimes it's Alex talking, sometimes it's Buddy.

While chatting, Alex learned that Buddy's original name was Charles Harding Hawley, and now he is known as Buddy Hawley. He also had a nickname called Sweetie Hawley.

"Haha! Really? Someone called you Sweetheart Hawley! Why is it called that? ”

"Maybe it's because they're happy to see me, and I don't know how they shouted."

Buddy shook his head to indicate that he didn't know. However, when he laughed, it really made people feel sweet in their hearts, as if they had just sunbathed. Buddy has a special temperament that blends two diametrically opposed temperaments, melancholy and sunshine. When he feels unhappy in his heart, he will restrain his smile and show melancholy in his eyes. When he feels joy, his happy face will be filled with sunshine.

After a long period of contact, Buddy will become more and more active, talking more and more, and changing the wooden expression of the initial impression.

"I just heard Jenny in charge of personnel say that your guitar and duet are pretty good."

"yes, maybe it's because I have a good musical tradition at home."

"Oh? Really, I've been playing music since elementary school. ”

"Yes, I have two older brothers who play very good guitars. I learned from them. As for the duet, it is because every night, my sister and mother perform a duet with piano accompaniment. Sometimes I sing with them, and it was a wonderful time. ”

Surprisingly, Alex and Buddy had similar childhoods. Both have been musicians since elementary school, and both have very talented siblings, and both started performing at a very young age to receive awards.

Buddy said, fondly recalling, "I remember when I was a kid, I liked to walk around with a radio. The radio was playing hymns, country songs, blues and all that all day, and I was so fascinated by these songs that I couldn't sleep all day and all night, and the music was echoing in my head. ”

Alex listened, his eyes widened and he said, "Really? When I was younger, I had a radio, not just for me, but for Richard and Karlen. You know, the radios of that era were very large and quite heavy. We couldn't lift it with one hand, so we hugged it with both hands, and we walked like this, swaying and laughing. ”

Buddy was made to laugh at Alex's vivid description, and the two of them laughed for a while, their eyes welling up with tears in their eyes. Buddy said with emotion: "It was a carefree day. ”

"Yes! It was a good time, you didn't have to think about anything. ”

Talking about this, the two laughed again, and they both felt that the other party had a good taste for themselves. Sometimes, it's so strange for people to get along with each other, and a few words can lead each other to be confidants.
