Adu’s original name was Du Chengyi. He was born in an ordinary Chinese family in Singapore. His parents were divorced. He is different from his younger brother JJ Lin, a rich man. He had to drop out of school at the age of 15 to work to earn money to support himself. He even worked as a foreman on a construction site for seven years until participating in a singing competition changed his life.

His "Heavenly Darkness" and "He Must Love You Very Much" became popular in half of Asia. Zhao Wei even acted as the heroine in his MV. The first three albums sold 5 million copies. This achievement is similar to that of Jay Chou, who debuted around the same time, couldn't catch up.

Many boys around me like this powerful singer. His hoarse voice and tragic lyrics make you never tire of listening to him. But later, the quality of the fourth album began to decline. Adu's popularity suddenly disappeared. Although he did not stop singing, the audience began to dislike his songs, which is very fatal for a famous singer. Later, Adu participated in a talk show and said that his girlfriend spent time with him during the low period of his life. Adu still suffers from the anxiety of becoming famous. He is not confident in singing. When he goes on stage, he can't control his hands shaking and his palms become sweaty.

He himself is relatively honest and introverted, not good at promoting himself, and is very uncomfortable with the rapid changes in the external environment. His weight even increased by more than 80 kilograms, and he once wanted to quit the entertainment industry. Indeed, he disappeared from our sight. In recent years, he has also participated in some variety shows, such as Anhui Satellite TV's "I'm Crazy about Singing", which can be regarded as a victory over himself. He even started to learn how to do business and joined a medical beauty group. In his forties, he married his girlfriend and had a child.

It is impossible to achieve the previous reputation, so it is better to find another way to make a living. It's enough for him to leave a few songs for the audience. As fans, we still hope that he will live a happy life, and we don't want him to continue to be anxious and at a loss.

Adu’s history of fame is a grassroots one. Before becoming a singer, he was a contractor at a construction site. Because he accompanied a friend to participate in a talent show, he was favored by the judges. Instead, he Entered Haidie Records and entered the music scene from then on. The first album "Heavenly Dark" made him famous overnight, and his career went straight to the peak. In 2002, the sales volume across Asia reached 1.5 million. Let's take a closer look at Adu. The peak of Adu's career was in 2002. The period from 2004 to 2004: In November 2002, "Hold on to the End" was released; in 2003, the album "Hello" was released, and the album sales across Asia exceeded one million; in 2004, the song "He Must Love You Very Much" was sung All over the country, Adu's name is deeply rooted in people's hearts.

However, since 2005, Adu's singing career has gone downhill. The albums released after that did not have popular songs, but they were all mediocre. Obviously, they were not as popular as when they first debuted. It was not until later that the decline of the record industry made him slowly come out of people's sight. In addition, he suffered from depression during that time, which greatly restricted his development. In fact, it is difficult for artists who are very successful when they debut to remain popular if they do not have better follow-up resources. For example, F4, which was once popular, was also short-lived.

Due to his grassroots background, Adu actually returned to life slowly after the ups and downs. On January 11, 2016, Adu announced the good news of his marriage on Weibo. On March 11, Adu’s 43rd birthday, he announced the good news on Weibo, revealing that his wife was pregnant. On May 22, Adu announced the good news of becoming a father on Weibo and posted a photo of him holding his child. Life still makes him enjoy it, and other things are not so important!

People have almost forgotten Adu. Now that he is married and has children, he will still release new songs. The new album "Bad Guy" was released in May 2017, but the response was not particularly enthusiastic.

In 2002, Adu officially debuted with the release of his first solo album "Heaven". The album included "Heirloom", "He Must Love You Very Much", "Tear the Night" and other very good songs. , sales reached 1.5 million copies.

After that, he successively released his second album "Hold on to the End" and his third album "Hello", both of which sold more than 1 million copies.

It can be said that Adu was extremely popular at that time, while Jay Chou at the same time did not have such good album sales.

But due to his age, Adu was nearly 30 years old when he debuted. Outstanding characteristics. Adu's biggest characteristic is his hoarse voice. Although it is easy to become popular, it also makes people easily tired of aesthetics. Adu, who reached his peak when he debuted, quickly declined in popularity.

After his popularity declined, Adu even began to feel depressed. However, due to the encouragement and care from relatives, friends, especially his girlfriend. Adu stepped out of the shadows. In 2016, Adu announced the good news of getting married, and in May of the same year, he announced the good news of becoming a father.

Now Adu is more like an ordinary person. He has his own family, his own career, and occasionally sings. He is really happy!

Invitation! Yes, we once upon a time slightly forgot about Adu, who was very popular for singing back then. Although Adu’s name is still in people’s minds, he no longer sings for us, and we don’t know where he is now? ! You don’t even know what you are doing! But there are still many singers like Adu who have disappeared. This may be the inevitable law of the development of new things! But when I suddenly heard a song (Tearing the Night) being sung, I was reminded of the happiness Adu brought to us at that time! Thank you Adu for the beauty you have brought to us! No matter where you are or what you are doing! We all wish you the best! Thanks to the questioner!

Adu is the kind of star who suddenly becomes popular and then suddenly disappears. There seems to be no shortage of such stars in the entertainment industry.

The Singaporean man who sang "He Must Love You Very Much" and "Dark" with a hoarse voice was originally not suitable for the development of the entertainment industry. No hype, just average appearance. There are no entertainment resources except singing. It is difficult to get recognition from the entertainment industry. There were many singers like Adu in that era. The most famous ones were Daolang, Chen Xing, Xiaogang and Dick Cowboy, all of whom became extremely popular. But for them, singing is the most important thing. Without good songs, they are like shooting stars, streaking across the sky, the brightest stars and the fastest shooting stars.

Adu was a hit for a while, but it was short-lived. He once tried to come back and participated in a chorus program on a certain satellite TV. But since the show didn't have much impact, the result was anticlimactic. As he gained weight, he was no longer the young man with flowing hair. Entering middle age, having married a wife and having children, finding another way to make a living is his other life as Du Chengyi.

However, in the hearts of fans, he is still the long-haired young man who sang "I must love you very much", lonely, with a little vicissitudes...

If someone asks what is there in the entertainment industry? Adu must be one of the celebrities who suddenly became famous.

Back then, older netizens would be familiar with popular songs such as "Dark", "Hold on to the End", "He Must Love You Very Much", etc., and Adu's hoarse voice, Coupled with his slightly melancholic temperament, he has become the object of imitation by many people.

The first album "Dark", released on April 1, 2002, sold 1.5 million copies in eight months; the album "Hold to the End" was released in November, and in December 2003 The album "Hello" was released. These three albums established Adu's position in the music world and became a smash star. He is the only phenomenal singer to compete with Jay Chou. Even Zhao Wei became the heroine in his MV.

Just how popular Adu was back then. I found a Baidu search picture intercepted by netizens in 2003. From the picture, it is easy to see that Adu was more popular than F4, more popular than Jay Chou, and surpassed Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, and Faye Wong. Wait for it to be thrown behind you.

The four years from 2002 to 2005 were the heyday of Adu’s singing career. The awards and honors he received were basically concentrated in these years.

Although the company has equipped Adu with a creative team, we can clearly see that the 2005 album "I Do" has begun to decline. Unlike Jay Chou, a singer-songwriter, Adu is just a singer, but in his most popular years, if he found a few big-name songwriters to write songs for him and properly developed his network of connections in the circle, he should not disappear. Got it so fast.

But this may be Adu’s character. It cannot be said to be a tragedy, but it caused him to lose some opportunities. He was unwilling to cater to certain things. When he was on "The Coming of Kangxi", Adu's interaction with the host seemed very awkward and he couldn't let go at all. Such a character is actually at a disadvantage in the entertainment industry.

When Adu was at his most popular, he publicly said more than once on the show that he was not suitable for the development of the entertainment industry. If he stopped singing in the future, he would go back to his old job and become a foreman. Adu was a construction foreman before his debut. By chance, he participated in an audition competition and got the favor of the judges before embarking on the career of a singer. If you say this when you are at the peak of your powers, you can only say that Adu has no ambitions and seems very calm about his own enthusiasm.

When various singing competitions became popular on the screen in the past few years, even Huang Qishan became famous instantly, but Adu was silently cultivating his own land and did not participate to get a share of the pie. . His character may be that he is willing to be ordinary and aloof from the world.

The environment in which Adu grew up as a child made Adu insecure about the people around him.

With the development of the Internet, entertainment methods have become more and more diverse, and music has gradually become an accessory to film and television works. Nowadays, there are almost very few songwriters who can calm down and concentrate on their creation. This is also an important reason for the gradual decline of music.

Nowadays, Adu is married and has a son. He has opened his own beauty salon in Guangzhou. His fat image makes people think that he is another version of Ekin Cheng.

Perhaps, this is what Adu thinks is the best destination.

More than ten years ago, Singaporean singer Adu became popular in Asia with his song "Dark" and became the most popular song at the time. Later, "He Must Love You Very Much" and "Tear the Night" , "See You Every Day" and so on have become extremely popular songs.

It can be said that the period from 2002 to 2004 was Adu’s most glorious moment. His unique voice and rapid rise to fame also made Adu, who had always been introverted and inarticulate, become the most eye-catching superstar in the entertainment industry.

Of course, the question arises, why did Adu, who was once so popular, choose to fade out of the entertainment industry at the peak of his career and disappear overnight? What has he been doing for so many years?

Let’s first talk about Adu’s debut experience, and then talk about why it ended like this.

In fact, Adu’s debut experience can be said to be very inspiring. He was born in an ordinary family in Singapore. His parents divorced when he was 6 years old. Adu lived with his mother and became a 15-year-old boy. He dropped out of school when he was young and relied on working to earn money to support his family. He worked as an apprentice in a car repair shop, delivered food, worked as a waiter, and worked as a foreman before participating in a singing competition.

The turning point in Adu’s life occurred at the age of 26. At that time, Haidie Music wanted to sign some new singers, so it held a competition, and Adu finally succeeded in signing the contract after passing five hurdles, becoming the two signed at that time. One of the singers, and the other one is JJ Lin.

After a series of training, Adu released his first album "Darkness" in 2002. His charming voice and beautiful melody made Adu an instant hit. Within a year Sales across Asia reached 1.5 million.

In November of the same year, Adu released his second album "Hold to the End", with sales exceeding one million. It can be said that Adu was the most popular male singer at the time.

After that, Haidie Music continued its efforts, and the love song album created for Adu with a lot of money was a big hit. The first song was a classic, and the scenery was endless.

But it is easy for a person to become famous, but the difficult thing is how to last.

In 2005, Adu released several more albums. However, perhaps because the styles of the songs were similar, the public had developed aesthetic fatigue, and the quality of the albums was also not as good as before, resulting in a serious decline in album sales. This directly led to a serious decline in Adu's popularity.

At this time, Adu also suffered from severe anxiety and depression due to the great changes in his career. He often felt very panic and fear. The introverted Adu's palms were cold when he sang on stage. He suffered from mental stress, neurasthenia, and could not sleep every night. At the worst time, he thought of committing suicide, so he could only choose to quit during the period of struggling for his career.

Since 2007, Adu has reduced his work performances and spent more time taking medicine and seeing doctors. His weight once increased to more than 80 kilograms. He is not good at hype and cannot write lyrics and music. In this way, he slowly faded out of the public eye, and eventually became the fall of a superstar.

In fact, Adu is not suitable for the entertainment industry. He himself said that he hates living in the spotlight, saying pretentious polite words and doing things he doesn't want to do, which makes him nervous and anxious. The intensity of the work also made him very uncomfortable, and he was very confused during that time.

However, Adu, who has faded out of the entertainment industry, is still happy. His girlfriend who has been in love for many years has never left him. The two have lived their own small life for so many years, and they also opened a beauty salon, and the business is still booming. .

In 2013, Adu, who had been away from the music scene for a long time, participated in a mainland variety show "I'm Crazy about Singing". When the familiar song "Dark" came to mind, fans seemed to have returned to the past. The youthful era.

Now Adu has recovered from his disease. He married his girlfriend in 2016 and had a son. In his 40s, Adu has finally grown from the young boy back then to a man who understands the true meaning of happiness. good man.

Adu, who has experienced ups and downs, is now living his small life indifferently. The fame and fortune in the entertainment industry are all fleeting to him. Enjoying the happy life of ordinary people is not a kind of happiness. Woolen cloth?

I would have concluded that Adu would not be popular for long even after his debut. Why? There is no doubt that Adu's voice is very unique, but he has a fatal flaw, which may be the reason why he will not last long in music. The reason is simple, he doesn't understand music at all. Maybe you are confused and say I am talking nonsense. How could Adu, who sings so beautifully, not understand music? But in fact, Adu only has a nice singing voice, and he knows nothing about "music". He can't read music, let alone write lyrics and compose music by himself. Every song he sings has been sung by someone else. Later, he learned to sing through recording. To put it bluntly, he called it a "cover". It was precisely because of his unique cover voice that he became famous for so long, and it was precisely because of this that he was unable to go further in his music career.

In the Chinese music scene, there are many people who become famous with one song; there are also many singers who only sing one song in their life and become popular with one trick. Adu belongs to the former.

Adu is a Singaporean singer. Since they all belong to Chinese-speaking areas, in the early 2000s, there were many popular singers from Singapore and Malaysia to China. The well-known ones are Stefanie Sun, who was born in Singapore, and Yongyi. A Niu, whose song "Peach Blossoms Bloom" conquered many people, and so on. Adu should be said to be the most unique among these singers.

The director’s uniqueness has two meanings. The first is the uniqueness of his voice. Adu is different from conventional singers or the gentle and natural voice like Fei Yuqing, and is also different from the magnetic and soulful voice like Jacky Cheung. Adu's singing voice is husky and heart-rendingly soulful. At that time, Yang Kun from Mainland China had not yet become popular, and Adu's hoarse and tearing singing style made everyone's ears light up. It turns out that the song can still be sung like this?

In 2002, Adu became known to everyone with "Dark". Looking back on those days, how many men imitated Adu's hoarse voice in KTV and sang about their pain in love. How many people never remember "it's dark when I close my eyes" and "I hide under the car" sad.

Adu also used his unique voice to successively release albums such as "Hold on to the End" and "Almost", which sold astonishingly and won awards.

Another unique thing is Adu's unique identity. He was actually a foreman at a construction site at first. According to current words, he is a standard "grassroots singer". Until one day, Adu accompanied his friend to participate in an audition competition in which more than 3,000 people signed up. Unexpectedly, he was recognized and favored by the judges. He immediately signed a contract with him as a trained singer, joined Haidie Records, and entered the music scene. Of course, we have heard many such debut stories.

But the good times did not last long. At the height of his popularity, Adu suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight. Later media reported that the reason for Adu's disappearance was that he suffered from severe depression. Some netizens even revealed on Weibo that Adu suffered from severe depression and occasionally had suicidal tendencies.

In the past two years, Adu released his new album "Nothing to Fear". He also admitted that he was not in good condition at that time, but also refuted the rumors that it was not a serious mental problem, but a kind of panic disorder. disease. The reason is that the pressure in this industry is really too great.

During his time away from the entertainment industry, it was said that Adu also ran a plastic surgery hospital business.

But it was also the panic disorder caused by being overwhelmed that caused Adu's excellent acting career to come to an abrupt end at its peak. It is a pity.
