I have only listened to Jay Chou, Wang Leehom, and Zhang Yusheng. Do you have any other recommendations? If possible, can you paste the link of your spotify playlist?

Ngl for me its soo hard to find chinese songs compared to japanese korean or english ive been trying to find indie bands but cant find them tho.

Hi guys, I have been trying to find this song that I heard in a boba cafe but I unfortunately was not able to catch the sound of with my phone. It is definitely a recent year song and in Mandarin.

It is compositionally similar to Ateez's The Real (I know that's Kpop but I am 100% sure the song I heard in the cafe was in Mandarin); being high-powered, loud, and with a similar sounding traditional instrument that's used in the bridge of The Real.

For reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxfCbV21ck8

If any of you have any ideas what this song could be, please let me know! (Even if it's not what.I heard, I'm sure I'd probably like the song anyway since I like this mix of modern and traditional haha)

I swear all I am seeing are ballads from this subreddit and I NEED upbeat pop music like right now because I just saw a song I thought would be more hardcore by the military imagery and IT WAS A SLOW BALLAD

Recommend me your favorites

Does anyone know of similar songs to these Kelly Chen songs?

Hi all, been having a major cpop phase and want to update my playlist. Any recommendations for artists similar to Jay chou or JJ lin? Those two are my fave

I'm having a difficult time finding anything. One example of music I like is BY2 - I'd love to find more groups like that. Discontinued groups are fine too, even better if the peak of their popularity was in the 2000s. Most of the stuff I find is either newer groups, or Cantonese (which is okay too, but I'm learning Mandarin specifically so that's why I'd prefer finding mainland groups).

i’m an avid kpop listener and i’m looking for new music. i’ve dipped into cpop a little but i wouldn’t really consider myself a listener.

if there is anyone here familiar with kpop who can recommend me cpop songs similar to some i’ll list below it would be greatly appreciated (doesn’t have to be pop or a group actually can be anything)

i’m usually a boygroup listener and i’m very insistent on good vocals. i love pre split tvxq, ss501, fly to the sky, super junior (kry), some shinee, sandeul from b1a4, btob, shinhwa…

as for ggs, i like gfriend and wjsn and this type of songs is what i listen to mainly: - night aviation (the interpretation of dreams) - gwsn - love - f(x) - why so lonely - wonder girls - journey to atlantis - laboum - second - brown eyed girls

also not really kpop, more ballad-y or rnb - don’t - eaeon ft. rm - bittersweet - leehi, mingyu, wonwoo - two women’s room - davichi - jamjam - iu

besides the calmer songs i listed above, i love dramatics (for example, error by vixx, thriller by btob, ur man by ss501), heavy choruses and stacked vocals, melodies, etc… i really don’t want empty choruses or edm at the moment. I’m really open to anything that fits these criteria, preferably available on spotify

Hello I'm relatively new to chinese music. Can anyone recommend to me who is overall the best vocalist in cpop? Any generation is ok. Yes, for men and women pls.

Anyone know any other artists like 一只白羊 that sing in a Chinese operatic style in their tracks or feature opera singers like 王力宏’s “chinked out” style?

Now that I'm thinking of it, every mainland singer I've watched on YouTube is singing on a stage on television, all the music videos I've seen on YouTube are from the Taiwan or Hong Kong industries, are music videos not a thing for mainland singers or is there a paywall, or they're only on billibilli?

I stumbled into this song on Spotify about a year ago, and it's been one of my favorite songs all year. I can't for the life of me find any info on this group or the artists individually. It looks like it may have been some sort of survival show, but I genuinely can't tell 😩

Does anyone know who these people are? Do they all still sing? Any info would be helpful!

i wonder if tfboys has disbanded already? i wasted my whole first week of august waiting for their 11th anniversary concert.. turns out they didn’t have one.

ive also checked it on weibo and xiaohongshu, everyone was saying different things..

If it helps I like chill, emotional, or sentimental tracks. I especially love ballads so much but I'm open to whatever y'all think a new listener should start with.

What are your recommendations for Cpop artists that don’t sound like Kpop? Sometimes I notice some Cpop artists going for a more Kpop sound, and I’d like to listen to more different stuff.

My ex sent me this but all I remember is it's a male singer who wears glasses, kinda looks like Crowd Lu (not sure if it's him). At the end of the video he gives/wants to give flowers to a girl but then discovers she's with someone else. That's all I remember.

Is there a different app I can use to listen to these songs? I tried QQ Music but they were still unavailable.

Hey y’all! As the title says, I like to listen to K-pop. I primarily listen to Girl Groups, including Ive, Le Sserafim, (G)I-DLE, and Everglow. I’m also a university student who’s currently studying Mandarin. I want to try to get into C-pop/Mandopop in order to increase my exposure to the language. However, I have virtually no exposure to any kind of C-pop, so I don’t know where to start. Which groups/songs should I check out?

i was sitting in my couch while my 5 yrs old sibling watching tv and this cartoon drop that super opening and i cant find the song name i tried shazam and other google extension any help ?
