周杰伦The US weekly magazine Time Asia once featured Jay Chow as its cover story, in which the article asked "How did a kid with an overbite become Asia's hottest pop star?"
Starting as a contract lyrics writer, Jay Chow understood that it was music and revolutionary ideas that mattered, more than looks, dance moves and image.
Since the release of his debut album, Jay, in November 2000, which delivered brooding, soulful, surprisingly sensual ballads and quiet pop tunes, he stands up, takes notice and now ranks as Asia's top pop star with six albums in five years.
This composition writer casts away traditional vocal principles of pop music, stumbles over to the keyboard and transposes those nocturnal audio-sounds onto sheet music and demo tapes.
Inarticulate or R&B?
Not a single singer in the Chinese music industry has pronounced lyrics as unclearly as Jay Chow does. Though this has aroused much criticism from his seniors and even linguists, Jay conquered the music scene by incorporating his experimentation with Chinese language and R&B back in the studio.
Compared with English or Cantonese, the pronunciation and tone of Chinese mandarin does not transfer well into melody. Jay gave up the established pronunciation and created a unique and ambiguous pronunciation to go with R&B or Rap. Nobody understood what he was singing at first, but that actually drew our attention, and now, more and more people are imitating him.
No Vincent Fang, No Jay Chow
Jay Chow could never be Jay Chow without his loyal partner, lyric writer Vincent Fang or Fang Wenshan. His fragmented, inconsistent, and even anti-text lyrics probably do not make sense to some, but the vagueness instead allows the possibility of exploration. This type of lyrical pronunciation has been regarded as an experimentation, which happens in both modern art and drama as well. The wisdom lies in the perfect match of fragmented lyrics and the singer's unique pronunciation. Most importantly, the teens love it.
Rhythmical or not?
Chinese pop music emphasizes more on melody than on rhythm. Jay Chow's music is an exception. He adopted multi-tunes from varied music genres, like R&B, Soul, Rap, Classical, and Metal Rock and reconstructed them to his own music.
Rebelliousness or a Disguise of Vanity?
Music is a way of expression. The novelty of music demands rebellious spirit--- shake down established principles and voice the present era with brand new music elements.
Big names like Elvis Presley, the Beatles, the Sex Pistols, and Tayu Lo all have left their mark on music history. Jay Chow cannot compare with them yet, but his music has similar characteristics.
About the New Album
The new album "Chopin in November" hit stores on November 1. Many critics say that it is only a continuation of Jay's established style, though the publisher boasts the album's concept walks the line of "being temperamental".
Rock and symphony elements mix in the song "Ni Lin", which is quite expressive. The electronic phone ringing and a man's voice in the prelude of the song "Blue Storm" inject heavy metal rock elements into this popular song, making it less commercial.
While, the widely applauded song "Fa Ru Xue" (literally meaning hair likes snow) has a similar rhythm with one of his former smash hits "Dong Feng Po"(A name for one genre of an ancient Chinese poem), which has been one of the hottest KTV songs. This is the only other song to update the KTV song list.
Jay expresses his anger and dissatisfaction of paparazzi again in the song "Si Mian Chu Ge", in which he describes the paparazzi as the speaking dog. There have been many unpleasant conflicts between him and the media over the years. However, one critic says that the act does not match his status and tolerance as Asia's top star.
Whether you adore him or could care less, the singer is still making history in the Chinese music scene with a high profile status.

[edit] Career
Before entering showbiz, Louis Koo spent several months in jail for stealing. After that he immediately changed his life in a spectacular way by entering showbiz. Louis Koo began his career as a fashion model and a karaoke MTV actor before he became a contract artist with TVB in 1993. Since then he has starred in many popular drama series and commercials which raised his popularity to new heights in recent years. Ever since he changed his image by getting an extreme tan (which he is well known for), his career gained a huge boost. His distinctive style has captivated audiences of all ages. In 1999, Louis was honoured with TVB's Most Popular Male Artist Award for Detective Investigation Files IV . In 2001, Louis was given the award once again for A Step into the Past and also the Most Stylish Personality Award and Men of Power 2001.
Louis Koo also starred in various TVB television dramas, most notably the 1995 remake of Return of the Condor Heroes; Detective Investigation Files IV (1999); and A Step into the Past (2001). From the cool, aloof character that he had always been cast, he took a different character in A Step Into the Past. This deviation from the cool and aloof character to a funnier, carefree and down-to-earth one opened his career to an extensive list of romantic comedy movies that now have a distinctive Louis Koo element. His silent and sincere attitude, and his devotion to his family, makes his characters more convincing, and thus earns him a wide range of fan base. He further sang a couple of the television series themes that he played in. Besides that he also has various other songs. A notable one is the album "Mr.Cool".
The movie drama Happy Birthday (2007) introduced a sensitive character portrayed by Louis Koo. What sets this movie apart from his other romantic movies is the serious tone between dialogues. This is another first in Louis Koo's movie career, that is to portray a sensitive man sans the comical gestures he have always done in past romantic comedies.
His most recent screen character as a drug addict in the movie Protege, has transcended from his usual charm and wit performances. In this new movie, he attempts to forgo the hunk image to portray a drug addict. Little screen time did not stop him to successfully achieve this role, and thus earned him positive feedback tucked under his belt.
Louis Koo won international acclaim for his performance in Election 2 (aka Triad Election ), which was screened in Out of Competition (midnight screenings) section at Cannes Film Festival in 2006.
He has won the award for Most Beloved Actor in the Hong Kong UA Film Awards 2006 through public voting for his role in Election 2 (aka Triad Election ).
