On March 27, a variety show called " 100% Singer " was launched on Tencent Video for the first time. The first episode of this music variety show invited singers such as Jin Chi, Su Shiding, Liang Xinyi, Zhuang Xinyan, Li Jiawei to perform on stage and compete in a competitive showdown. These singers are all relatively well-known. In the words of netizens, they are all twice-cooked pork.
"100% Singer" is very similar to the discontinued music variety show " The Voice of China " in terms of format and content. In this brand new variety show, there is no longer a mentor seat, but the choice is given to hundreds of viewers at the scene. In this way, no one can joke that music variety shows are talking about something before they even start talking.
In this brand new variety show, the singer on stage must first be invisible to the audience. Everyone only listens to her singing. If they think she sings well, they can press the select button to allow the singer to officially appear on the stage. This model is actually the same as the The Voice instructor who turns his back to the singer, listens to the singer singing first, and then turns his chair when he thinks the singer sings well. Therefore, this variety show gives people the impression that it does not have the mentor, but it is similar to "The Voice of China".
In the first episode of "100% Singer", the competitive flavor was not so clear. After several well-known singers performed on stage, the audience chose through voting machines. In the end, one contestant was selected from the first episode of the program, who could enter the recording of the next episode and sing at the opening. It is unknown whether the remaining singers bought train tickets to go home or something else.
Obviously, in this new variety show, the competitive flavor is slightly weaker. This is also the main reason why this music variety show is not so good-looking. Although talent show variety shows like "The Voice of China" have their own unknown side, as a variety show, the competitive content is quite interesting and can be followed by everyone. On the other hand, "100% Singer" lacks corresponding highlights.
This variety show lacks competition, so each singer only sings one or two songs. In order to increase the excitement of the singing session, "100% Singer" has repeatedly informed the audience that the singers really sing, not modifying their notes, and are all open-mic. This approach is somewhat reminiscent of Jiangsu Satellite TV’s New Year’s Eve concert. Of course, the most interesting thing about Jiangsu Satellite TV's New Year's Eve concert, which was all open-mic, is that Meng Ziyi really can't sing, and his eldest brother Zhou Huajian can't even sing.
"100% Singer" lacks an interesting singer like Meng Ziyi. It claims that it is all on the mic, that it really sings and does not modify the notes, etc. However, after the audience saw the complete variety show, almost every singer's singing was of a passing standard. Of course, the song itself cannot be familiar to the audience. In this way, the full open-mic appeal of the entire program has actually been reduced.
's singing songs are not familiar to everyone, which has become a common problem in too many music variety shows. To achieve familiarity, you must purchase the copyrights of some wonderful and classic songs, which costs money. And variety shows like "100% Singer" actually focus on promoting a singer. Therefore, the purpose of this variety show is to let these singers on stage sing their new songs. However, how many people are willing to listen to the new song?
Then, a vicious cycle occurred. "100% Singer" hopes to attract a large number of singers to join the group and perform their new songs on stage. However, the program itself has almost reached the point where no one can watch it, and it has not played a role in promoting the singers. Everyone huddled together for warmth, but there was no heating, and the bursts of coldness hit every singer. The singer is not popular, the singer's works are not popular, the variety show is not popular, the three are not popular, all are over.
Based on my personal listening experience, the songs performed by the singers on the first episode of the program were not that good. At the same time, I am one of the "good-looking" ones among the audience, which is quite low-level, I admit it.In "100% Singer", several singers on stage are really not good-looking either because they are older or because they wear too much makeup. In this case, they are all new songs anyway. Why don’t we, the audience, watch those singers who are in their late teens or early twenties singing and dancing?
It seems that a variant of "The Voice of China" in which the audience becomes mentors will not be good to watch if it lacks competition. Twice-cooked pork singers really lack a stage that can be seen by more audiences. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
