JACKSON WANG : Male Musician of the Year at NetEase Indie Music Awards 2019-2020
JACKSON WANG wins the award of Male Musician of the Year at NetEase Indie Music Awards 2019-2020.
On April 23, the Internet giant hosted the 2019-2020 edition of NetEase Indie Music Awards where JACKSON WANG performed his latest track “LMLY” and was awarded the title of Male Musician of the Year. This award show was created by NetEase Cloud Music to celebrate the most popular indie musicians and show their contribution and influence in the music industry.
For this performance, we are invited to dive into the concept of the MV thanks to XR technology, combining “Classic and Innovation“. The setting includes visual elements from the MV as well as inspirations from the world of city pop and The Queen’s Gambit.
“LMLY” is a pop song with 80s vibes and a visual concept inspired by Chinese Hong Kong movies from the 90s. Released on March 26, the song now records 10 million views on YouTube and over 5 million streams on Spotify. It also earned a feature in Spotify’s Global Viral 50, a playlist with almost 2 million listeners that includes the world’s TOP50 viral songs.
With this performance, JACKSON has now proposed three live versions of his song: the first time at Bazaar Icons Night and the second time on The Late Late Show with James Corden. But we can already expect more as he is scheduled to attend China Cool Music Festival on May 3rd.
