At this year's Golden Melody Awards ceremony, Eason Chan took away the trophy for best male singer.
In the scene of the finalists of the Golden Melody King, Li Jiuzhe, who has been in the Chinese music scene for seven years, appeared in people's sight.
And it has been eleven years since he was nominated for the Golden Melody Award for the first time.
In 2010, after Li Jiuzhe released his fourth album "Good Jiu", Li Jiuzhe made a decision.
He began to hope for new breakthroughs and changes. When the development was at its best, he chose to go to the United States alone to find new inspiration and cooperation.
△Li Jiuzhe’s fourth album "Good Jiu"
In 2012, Li Jiuzhe, Flowsik and singer-songwriter Eddie Shin from the underground music scene in New York, USA formed the AZIATIX group.

in the United States means that everything must start from the beginning, Li Jiuzhe said:
"I always have an idea, because I think that almost no Asians sing English songs in the American market. So, when I have When I had a chance to make an English album in the name of a group, I went to the United States. "In the years when
disappeared, many people thought that Li Jiuzhe had retired from the music scene. In fact, he has never given up on music. The development of
in the United States is not as simple as imagined.
In the beginning, AZIATIX's work also won the top singles on the iTunes R&B/Soul charts in the United States and Japan. However, the team's music philosophy was inconsistent, and Li Jiuzhe faced greater difficulties.
In seven years, the Chinese music scene has changed a lot, and the singers have changed one season after another.
Those born in the 80s and 90s who grew up listening to R&B music have gradually become mature.
They are no longer the core group leading the trend. The post-95s and even 00s who have begun to control the right to speak have bid farewell to physical records, and absorb the rapidly changing hot spots in the environment of app divine songs and young idols.
Perhaps the name Li Jiuzhe is no longer mentioned by people, but when those singles that were once hot in KTV sounded again, we seem to be able to go back to the best youth days.
Li Jiu-cheol, born in South Korea, has a beautiful midrange and false accents like a black R&B singing, and the bass part has a tough feeling.
His unique vocal range, vocal lines and true feelings in the music give his music a soul.
At the 2007 Golden Melody Awards, Li Jiuzhe, who was shortlisted for the first time, defeated the big hits Cao Ge, Lin Junjie and Tao Zhe and became the protagonist of the audience.
Korean-American Lee Jiu-cheol, who was born in South Korea and grew up in the United States, also became the first foreigner to win the Best Male Singer Award at the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards.
He wore a pale pink suit that day, revealing two lovely dimples, and his Moji brothers wept with joy. Those fond memories of
, along with the music, will always remain in the history of the Golden Melody Awards.
Li Jiuzhe, who was a teenager, once participated in a famous singing competition in the United States.
was also in that competition. Li Jiuzhe was invited to step down after five seconds of singing, which became the most memorable experience in Li Jiuzhe's memory.
He did not give up, but sang more firmly.
At the age of 17, Lee Jiu-chul returned to South Korea and debuted with a voice combination. In the first week of the release, he set a record of 40,000 copies and became famous for a while.
but luckily still did not take care of him, and soon the company’s boss and agent brought himWhen he absconded, Li Jiuzhe went from becoming popular overnight and returning to nothing. His singing was interrupted.
In order to make a living, Li Jiuzhe had to go out to find a job. He said that he had applied for a clerical job, but asked him to move the bucket. At that time, the elevator broke down and he had to climb the stairs one after another.
In 2003, Li Jiuzhe came to Taiwan.
He delivered demos of songs to many record companies, but in the end it fell to nothing.
Li Jiuzhe asked the record company, and the answer was that although the sound is great, he is not enough to be an idol, for fear of no market.
Fortunately, Huang Licheng finally dug him.
△Maji group
In 2003, Li Jiuzhe entered the Chinese music scene as the Nicky fat man of Maji group. In 2005, he released his first album "Shadow". The boss of
at the time, Huang Li, became a supporter of Li Jiuzhe, and once went to the bank to make a loan.
Whoever said that boys with rough appearance can't sing gentle songs, Li Jiuzhe said, persisting to the end, saved him.
The title song of the album "Shadow" by Li Jiuzhe and Huang Licheng
, which describes Li Jiuzhe who immigrated to the United States at the age of 18 when he was young and he wanted to go to Korea to realize his dream of making music, and was forced to be with the girl he loved. separate.
Things have changed, and I choose to bless each other, hoping to always be a song produced by a familiar force in each other's hearts.
, a more orthodox R&B love song, also laid the foundation for Li Jiuzhe's musical style.
You have to admit that Li Jiuzhe’s classic songs are really too many. The
music critic Erdi once commented on him:
"Li Jiuzhe is a talented man, and the Korean-American has a strong temperament to sing Chinese love songs very recognizable.
His talent in the mixed Chinese music circle should be easy to do, but He formed a group with American underground musicians to enter the American music scene.
was silent for seven years, and finally came back at the end of last year to release a Chinese record, which was shortlisted for the Golden Melody Award.”
became famous from that song. "Thinking Too Much", which everyone can sing in ktv, "I will live well".
His heavy bass tone is thick, grainy, and has a strong auditory impact; Li Jiuzhe's chest resonance and throat resonance are excellent, his own sound condition is good, and the recognition is high.
From a technical perspective, whether born or acquired, his expression of the feelings of the song appears sincere rather than showy.
Li Jiuzhe sings affectionately in "Relief", if separation is the only relief, in the end, for me, if you never have to be sad again, I regret to let me come.
don't know how many people find some comfort in this song. Those songs that loop singles at midnight, I used to feel sad, but now I feel cured.
"The Wall" created by JJ Lin is also a classic in the hearts of many people.
Li Jiuzhe sang, no one thought that he would not listen or watch, so he didn't feel it. When he turned around, he found that the air still smelled of memory.
Some people say that he is like a shadow lover, always singing those longing and unobtainable love, silently guarding, silently missing, like every lost shadow.
No matter how many times you have circled, only the love in your heart will tell you where to go, and it will push you like a whirlpool.
He is the chubby gentle man who sings "Perfect is not beautiful", the lonely singer who sings "You are in my heart, knotted", like a cup of black coffee in the middle of the night without sugar , It is very flavorful.
Li Jiuzhe once said that as far as music is concerned, regardless of R&B, Hip-Hop, lyrical or even choir style, they are by no means isolated from each other.
Any fusion of musical elements will bring fresh surprises to the ears. I try my best to let everyone see my multi-faceted nature, and it's a kind of heartfelt expression.
When Li Jiuzhe returned to the Chinese music scene, he had already changed the world of Chinese music, and he was nominated for a Golden Melody Award. This is the greatest respect for musicians.
During the few years he was away, Li Jiuzhe found his lover, began to like fitness, and enjoyed life peacefully. On the day when
was nominated for the Golden Melody Award, he and his wife cried, and the fans did not forget, Li Jiuzhe who sang "I think too much, you always say that".

fans say that when the so-called outdated singer in your mouth reappears with a new album after many years, it is like an old friend who has not seen for many years comes back to visit us with a gift.
He is still the musician with a simple smile and extraordinary talent in his memory. Although his appearance is not that outstanding, he is likable.
His songs are comfortable, there is no hoarse singing, and no deliberately sensational.
Once on a plane, Li Jiuzhe ran into Jay Chou. Jay’s words of encouragement gave him a lot of strength. Jay said that even if you haven’t released an album for a long time, you can still continue to do this.
Just in 2010, Jay Chou also tailored a song "Summer" for Li Jiuzhe, which appeared in the movie "There is a place only we know". In
"Summer", the sun slowly smiles after the spring rain, your smile is like a curved rainbow. The typical Li Jiuzhe's singing and Zhou Dong's creation have a different chemical effect.
Time, let us forget some people, time, but also let us remember some people. Fortunately, he returned with courage.
△Li Jiuzhe and Jay Chou collaborated on the new album
with the name "Will You Remember Me", which also represents the aspirations of Li Jiuzhe.
Li Jiuzhe said, I will never forget the past things, whether they are happy or sad, I think these things have also made me grow up a lot and become stronger, so I have not forgotten, nor do I want to forget these things. .

has to appear in countless times and exit countless times in his life, either in his own stories or in other people’s stories.
No matter whose story it is, as long as it is your turn to appear on the stage, it will shine brightly.
Li Jiuzhe, who sang love songs, is back, still radiant.
Those good songs that have been quietly hidden on our favorite list have accompanied us countless good times.
We must not forget that in those nights with shining stars, the voice called Li Jiuzhe is so nice.
