You said : "Western disregard for monogamy and faithfulness.".
This just shows how ignorant you are!
Kanye and Jay-Z do NOT represent the West - they don't even represent the whole American culture. Do a search on the American Christian community! They are a lot more conservative than Chinese people because, among the other things, they take cheating very seriously!
By your logic then, scumbags like Bo Xilai and his son Bo Guagua represent the Chinese and the whole East? I want to remind you of how much prostitution is going on in China these days.
Are you even aware that the West is not one single country? There are many country in the West, each with a different subculture. From how you write, all I can say is that your education was a total waste of time. Shame on you!
lol。。。对不起这帖把你弄得那么冒犯,但是我在原帖里面没有一次说过Kanye和JayZ象的人代表全西方的文化。我认出西方有很多不同的部分 (想几乎所有事物);实际上,我本来是想写一段讲西方音乐的保守的主题,但是那时候已经快三点了,脑子里唯一的念头是睡觉。反应别太过火好吧哈哈;如果我加这本来删掉的一段,会绥靖你妈?
Lol easy on the reaction level there; I made no claim that Kanye and Jay-Z represent the entire West. I do recognize that Western culture has multiple segments to it like everything else, and I was indeed planning on originally including a section on how Western pop has conservative themes in it too. Unfortunately, it was 3am at that point, and I just wanted to sleep, but I'm sorry you took such strong offense to the post.
Chinese pop
Recently, I've been listening to a lot of chinese music. Not sure whether they should be classified as "c-pop", but the beats are catchy regardless. Maybe you can help identify which genre they fall under?
最近我在听很多中文歌(最近我一直在听许多中文歌曲,have been doing 一直做什么事)。不太清楚是否他们应该属于"cpop"(不太清楚他们是否属于“cpop”,在中文里面,修饰语一定放在被修饰语的前面),但是无论如何我对不对(但是无论/不论/不管我对不对),我觉得他们的节奏很难忘的。也许你们能帮我识别这几首歌的流派?

我的歌声里
最炫民族风
伤不起
I also listened to some 老婆最大, and thought it was pretty funny. At first, I thought the song's popularity demonstrated a big cultural difference between the West and East. Lyrics like "come and meet me in the bathroom stall and show me why you deserve to have it all" ("Niggas in Paris" - Kanye and Jay-Z) ostensibly show Western disregard for monogamy and faithfulness. I thought the fact that 老婆最大 was so popular was clear indication of a more faithful Chinese culture.
我也听了“老婆最大”几次,觉得很有意思的。开始时,我把这首歌的普及笼统的理解为东西方文化区别(差别)。歌子词象像 "come and meet me in the bathroom stall and show me why you deserve to have it all" ("Niggas in Paris" - Kanye and Jay-Z) 表面上表明西方文化不理关系忠诚。与这样的歌子曲来相比,老婆最大的"老婆最大/老公第二”仿佛表明东方重视关系忠诚。
However, upon further reflection, I realized that I was making the mistake of confirmation bias. The theme of loose love is definitely present in Chinese music too: "你对我说伤不起/害怕我把你抛弃" (伤不起 - 王麟) is paralleled by "'I know what I did wasn't clever/but me and you were meant to be together" (Watcha Say - Jason DeRulo).
但是,后来想了下,发现我的想法错了。我犯了确认偏向错误 - 我只是找对我论点有帮助的歌,把其他歌不理了忽略了。放荡关系的主题在中文音乐文化也很明显:"你对我说伤不起/害怕我把你抛弃" (伤不起 - 王麟) 类似于 "'I know what I did wasn't clever/but me and you were meant to be together" (Watcha Say - Jason DeRulo).
I'm no expert on Chinese or Western music though, so feel free to correct me haha.
但是总的来说,我对东方和西方音乐也不算专家(我在中西方音乐方面不是/不算专家)。因此,请随点纠正我的了解哈哈(因此,请随便纠正我的理解/观点)。
如果我加这本来删掉的一段,会绥靖你妈?
uhmm , is it my mother the one you want to appease? 哈哈
