Last week, 呆宝静 under the real name Jiang Jing released his first solo album "Very Good Jiang Jing" since his debut in 18 years. It shows that she has accumulated abundant creative energy; this is also the most Jiang Jing work since her debut. She recorded her journey from girl to woman. Every song is the principle of life. , she smiled and said: "I don't have a motto in life, I just have no principles." In fact, through every album In the first song, you can find that her principles have long been subtly embedded in the notes, forming a unique character; indeed, no amount of words and sentences can describe Jiang Jing as much as she can understand her through the song.
It’s not too much to say that Jiang Jing is a representative symbol of modern independent women . In this era when women are self-improving, she can cross the ocean for love; she can also make a table full of love for her son. Cai; In order to love herself, she did not give up her dream of writing songs and making music. A woman should bloom like a flower, blooming and standing unshakable in nature.
"Very Good Jiang Jing" is an album that gathers the voices of Zhang Zhenyue, MC HotDog, Skinny E.SO and other big names. After it went live, it immediately attracted widespread attention. Very good Jiang Jing and Jiang Jing's original color group favored two Weibo The number of topic readings has exceeded 10 million. At the same time, the album attracted the attention of media people and music critics.
The following is the evaluation of Jiang Jing's album "Very Good Jiang Jing" by well-known music critics and media people in the industry (in no particular order)
streamline
I still remember that summer two years ago, appeared in the " China New Rap" Da Baojing in "", people in the circle say that she is the OG of female rappers, but she shows a sense of shyness and tension, perhaps because she is facing a certain balance between marriage and career--want to continue herself She loves music, but all the firewood, rice, oil and salt in her family life can’t stay out of it, so she is struggling, persevering, painful and happy.
And when I heard about Dai Baojing’s new album this summer, I was a little surprised. On the cover, she was simply dressed up and covered by a halo. Her name was changed back to "Jiang Jing", and the album's name was "Very Good Jiang Quiet", looking through the copy, I learned her story. It turned out that six years of marriage have ended. Everything in the process does not need to be for outsiders. Many questions and answers are deposited in this work. After listening to it, I feel pleasantly surprised.
This is a heavy and light record full of vitality. Jiang Jing regards music as a diary, venting and recording reflections on . As a Chinese hip-hop singer, she no longer loves those pretentious gestures, bluffs, and fakes. In a fake expression, I heard a mature woman use music to analyze herself, about the life, life, career, love, family affection between ideal and reality...…With rich and sweet music elements, the opening "Next Level" is like a cry for rebirth after death. The "Knock Knock" cooperating with MC HotDog is a kind of natural release led by Jiang Jing, sexy and dangerous; collaboration with Zhang Zhenyue "It's all good" and the lead was washed away in an instant. Jiang Jing husky and sang lyric songs from his immature voice, which impressed me deeply. With A Yue's voice that always carries the smell of youth, the tear-gas effect penetrates little by little. In my mind, it is interesting that Jiang Jing also sang and adapted Zhang Zhenyue's "Goodbye", using hip-hop rock and roll to hand over another youthful but not sentimental version.
I like "Soul Searing" the most. To a certain extent, I understand this song as the soul of the album. The charming retro electric beat, Jiang Jing's flowing water flow, and the memorable hook make the whole song fully reflected. In view of her strength and characteristic , “I don’t want to look at others glamorous, but I see that I have done nothing, did nothing, but slumped on the sofa and waited.”——Jiang Jing used a calm and rigorous interpretation to put her own Those weaknesses were exposed one by one, and then contrasted with the weirdness of this era. From individual anxiety to collective carnival, it is a process of searching for the soul of oneself, just like the two in the MV who are so close and so far apart through a mirror. For myself, Jiang Jing used her real experience to start, reflecting too many real problems that we need to think about together, and at the same time not shaking our insistence on music and self. Such Jiang Jing is indeed very good and worth listening to.
Three Stones screamed
Jiang Jing is really a name that will make people feel calm, but she was also called Dabaojing before. Some people have known her names when they listened to Hip-Hop music more than ten years ago, and many more people should have recognized her in the rap shows in the past two years.
"Very Good Jiang Jing" made Dai Baojing return to her real name and set off again, with a clear attitude. In Jiang Jing’s machine gun-like Rap, he sprayed word by word, shocking, and without unnecessary offensiveness . There is also a taste of humanity ("Walk Away" based on Li Shutong's "Farewell"), even more ingenious adaptation (re-filled lyrics and composing "Goodbye" by Zhang Zhenyue, and Fusion's creativity that escapes the current mainstream rap music is equally impressive My ears brighten——it’s so cool and nice to mix and match Indie Rock’s "Three Seconds of Laugh" with Hip-Hop!
If you understand the story behind Jiang Jing to Dabaojing and then back to Jiang Jing, you may be even more affected by The album "Good Jiang Jing" is impressed; or if you just listen to it as a brand new album, it’s not a bad idea. There are many unconventional production ideas for "Very Good Jiang Jing", which is what a senior female Rapper should have. The expressive power of music.
The album by the lover
Jiang Jing (Dai Baojing) is a very "strange" album. This "weird" is because it is neither like the previous Jiang Jing (Dai Bao Jing) My own work is not like other female Rapper records.
But if you look at a higher place, you can find that the album "Very Good Jiang Jing" is actually used to break through the traditional Rap Latitude, so as to return to the true nature of rap music Keep Real. What's more, behind the scenes of this album, there are "natural" veterans like Zhang Zhenyue and MC Hotdog involved in the creation and production.
If hip-hop music is more often, the highlight is If you want to show off the edges and corners and wanton domineering, then the album "Very Good Jiang Jing" not only has these temperaments, but also has many different three-dimensional latitudes in this temperament.
This includes the diversification of music, For songs like "Future" and "Goodbye", you can even hear the pure interpretation of a singer Jiang Jing. The multi-angle presentation of folk songs, electronics, and hip-hop also makes the album full of richer audibility, as well as works and works. Zhang Chi and depth between.
On the other hand, the album "Very Good Jiang Jing" has the same intensity as "Next Level", but also "You Better Calm Down" and "Soul Searching". The temperature of the soul in the work,Even the depth of thinking.
If the usual Rapper albums are released and bloomed from the inside to the outside, then the album "Very Good Jiang Jing" has more exploration and reflection from the outside to the inside, which is a two-way cross between the inside and the outside. It not only originated from Jiang Jing (Dai Baojing)'s real life experience in the past few years, but also made her works present with accumulated thickness.
This reminds me that this album by Jiang Jing (Dai Baojing) is actually very similar to the two albums of Zhang Zhenyue's "OK" and MC Hotdog's "Wake Up", both of which seem to weaken the edges and corners. At the same time, because of the integration of more breadth of life and breadth of thinking, the music forms are diversified and the music content is inclusive. pretty good.

"Who in the world said that only bad children are rap? Look at me, a good woman who is also rap."
The most eye-catching part of the rap album "Very Good Jiang Jing" released on September 7 is probably to listen to how a good-family woman who has been a mother raps-has been famous for 17 years in the rap world and has been praised. As "the first female rapper in Chinese rap" Dai Baojing, after experiencing the ups and downs of Chinese rap and her personal life, converted the stage name Dai Baojing, which is very rap at the first listen, into the homely real name Jiang Jing. With a brand new rap album, it is rare for people to hear the tastes of life that rarely appear in rap works.
For example, "You Better Calm Down", which fights against the bear children who are like bad cats, and "When I Become You", which is "When I Become You" which the old mother feels "don't raise children and don't know the parents", these usually appear in various The content and emotions in the main melody music works are due to the rap tone of Dai Baojing, less preaching and more real wit of life.
The rap in "Very Good Jiang Jing" is not like ordinary rap. It only sings "attitude". Instead, it sings pictures and stories. Occasionally, some film and television performances are used. The former is like She sang "Knock Knocking" with hot dogs, the latter such as "Three Seconds Laugh", there will also be some easy and easy works, such as "Won't Deny" with the skinny E.SO.
Even when introspecting the dark side of the tangled and memorable works, Dai Baojing’s attitude is relatively calm and soft, such as "Soul Searching" and "Walking Far", there is even no rap but just singing His works "Future" and "Both are pretty good."
This is certainly at odds with the sharpness of rap in the common thinking of the public, but compared to Dai Baojing’s personal real experience and living conditions, it is flesh-and-blood, affectionate and interesting, especially "Going Away", which expresses a separation from the past. In "Goodbye" and "Goodbye", Dai Baojing used such themes as "Farewell" and "Goodbye" respectively in the selection of materials, but unexpectedly and subversively adapted the familiar melody or lyrics of these two songs. The handling of this heavy theme is playful and free and easy, but it is also expressing the true inner letting go and relief in this way. This attitude is obviously even more convincing and convincing at this age. The attitude of borrowing, compared with the stereotyped and cool cock of the young rappers, this kind of pictures, stories and emotions are obviously more in line with the keep real in the rap spirit, and it is also a more real love and peace.
Of course, Jiang Jing and Dai Baojing, which does not represent the past, are separated from the past, from the opening "Next Level", the middle "You Make Me Sick" to the ending bonus track "I Am a Rapper", you The demeanor and attitude of the first female rapper who speaks familiar Chinese rap is still there. The soft Jiang Jing and the sharp Da Baojing are there, and the talking and singing Jiang Jing are both present, which are very good.
is dumbfounded. One
can make "Goodbye" so spicy and playful. Dabaojing really has an interesting soul.
as early as 2000At the beginning of the decade, she was one of the representatives of Chinese female Rapper. After getting married, having children, and landing on variety shows, this comeback album is not the same as the current Hip-hop album route. She doesn’t take the line of being brave and hard-working, nor does she deliberately use tall productions to draw a sense of cold distance. From singing to music collection, she has an eclectic frankness, diversified and integrated in music. The materials are very close to life, from party singing to dreams, from family singing to short complaints from parents, real and vivid. After listening to , the image of this independent, humorous, and straight-forward female became very distinctive.
Sometimes the most important thing in making music is the sincerity and fun.

Ten years ago, it was recognized as the best female Rapper in the Mainland. Ten years later, the card face is still big enough. MC HotDog, Zhang Zhenyue, Skinny E.SO have all become her guests on this new album, and she is. The Rap skills and girly voice that have been maintained for ten years are still very recognizable among domestic female Rappers. In addition, the whole album is also very enjoyable for all kinds of mashups. "Next Level" Trap mashes symphony, "Knock Knock" hip-hop rap mashup EDM, the album almost completely abandoned the boundaries of genre, can rap and can Singing is like she once chose to marry and have children when she was the most popular, and she could come back at the right time. It is the most comfortable and most important to express herself in music like this.
Chorus Chorus
On September 7, the rap circle OG female Rapper Dai Baojing changed her name to Jiang Jing and released her first solo album "Very Good Jiang Jing" in the Rolling Stones. It only includes Zhang Zhenyue, hot dog MC Hotdog, and thin E.SO. The Feat list knows that this is a heavy album.
is indeed the case. has 14 wonderful songs including Bonus Track, and each song shows a completely different face of Jiang Jing. To be honest, I have never seen such a rich female Rapper in China. .
Once she was one of the top stars in rap circles, but for the sake of love, she was not afraid to marry early and live a life of marrying a husband and a child in another country. Nevertheless, she has never forgotten her favorite rap. In 2018, she chose to come back in "China New Rap", appearing as a brand new, happy family, hearty mother Rapper, which is impressive.
Two years later, Jiang Jing experienced emotional turmoil, but the emotional setbacks did not defeat her, but made her more colorful. The new album "Very Good Jiang Jing" covers all this rare and precious personal experience. : In "You Better Calm Down", she is a cool mother who talks with her son on an equal footing, "When I Become You" is the understanding of mothers after being a mother. To change the hot and sexy female Rapper, "You Make Me Sick" is a song written for the keyboard man...
To my surprise, "All Very Good" sung with Zhang Zhenyue is actually a song without any rap elements. Fresh lyrical song, Jiang Jing talked about a relationship in the beautiful guitar sound of A Yue, Jiang Jing and Rapper Jiang Jing, who had to rap at , were different, and Jiang Jing's voice was a little jerky when singing. Immature, but very touching, it feels as if she was still a fearless and cruel female Rapper just a moment ago, and turned her head to find that she is actually a weak girl who has been injured... It is this rich contradiction. Sex makes her more charming.
and began to sing, changing her name, these actions also show that she is a person who constantly breaks through and never stops. I believe that Jiang Jing, who has experienced another transformation, will get better and better.
