It’s hard to tell whether Mando-pop superstar Wang Lee-hom's new film
Love in Disguise (戀愛通告) is the cinematic accompaniment to his new album,
or if Wang’s new album The 18 Martial Arts (十 八般武藝) is the sound track
to his directorial debut, since the two projects are so tightly knitted
together.
Mostly a formulaic vehicle that breaks little new ground, Wang builds
on his self-coined “chinkedout”sound on The 18 Martial Arts, his 15th studio
album, and further promotes his own signature sound in contrast to the output
of Mando-pop’s two other heavenly kings (the R 'n' B of David Tao (陶) and the
“Chinese flavor” (中國風) of Jay Chou (周杰倫).
The album’s “chinked out”sound is mainly established by a few tracks that
merge hip-hop defiance with the serenity of traditional Chinese music. The
opening track Dragon Dance features snippets of drumming from Chinese dragon
dances in a titillating declaration of cultural pride. Last Verse of Boya
(伯牙絕弦) is the result of yet another sparkling collaboration between Wang
and Mayday's (五月天) front man A-hsin (阿信), who previously elevated Wang’s
hip-hop driven Along the Plum Blossoms(在梅邊) with classical Chinese literary
prose.
Wang’s fusion music reaches new heights on the album, with traditional music
elements performed by the China Broadcasting Chinese Orchestra
(中央廣播民族樂團).
On the single Match, Rice, Oil, Salt, Soy, Vinegar,Tea (柴米油鹽醬醋茶), Wang
extols the virtues of life’s ordinary pleasures. The lyrics, written by
songstress Vivian Hsu (徐若瑄), detail the bliss of everyday happiness in an
unexpectedly poetic way.
Hard-earned hip-hop credibility aside, Wang’s forte continues to be his
soaring R ’n’ B ballads rendered in his unique ABT accent in the vein of
You’re Not Here (你不在) and The Only One (唯一). The two theme songs from
Love in Disguise, Things You Didn’t Know (你不知道的事) and Until the End of
the World (天涯海角), are the latest entries in Wang’s romantic pop canon.
Though lacking innovation, The 18 Martial Arts does boast Wang’s polished
musicianship and his newfound confidence in staking out his own signature
style.
