Chinese Music

Edison Chen was born on October 07, 1980 in Vancouver, Canada and is a popular Hong Kong teen idol. A former artist of the Emperor Entertainment Group, he has starred in many films like the Twins Effect and the Internal Affairs. He sings Cantonese Pop (or Cantopop) and can also speak English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Japanese.

Many consider Edison Chen to be the first pop singer to bring hip-hop to the HK music scene, but it was actually LMF that began underground hip-hop in HK. Nonetheless, he made it mainstream with C-pop.

Lee-Hom Wang was born on May 17, 1976 and is a four time Golden Melody Award-winning singer-songwriter and actor. He has also received highly recognized success in the entire Southeast Asia. One of his notable contributions to Mandopop was the “chinked-out” music genre; a genre influenced heavily by traditional Chinese music. Wang is currently managed and records albums with Sony BMG.

Jin busted out on the American rap scene not too long ago. He still has more hits to come.
