What status does Wilber Pan have in the rap industry?

I think Wilber Pan has a high status in the rap industry. Wilber Pan's "Gecko Walks" appeared during a period of subversion in the pop music business. Traditional music gradually lost its status. When pop music just started, hip-hop style music with strong rhythm filled the vacancy in the music style of that period, making Wilber Pan the hip-hop enlightenment teacher in the hearts of many people. In those days, Gecko Walk was like a bomb exploding in our lives, for kids like me who were brainwashed by love songs and nursery rhymes on TV every day.

The spread of this song only appeared today with the explosive development of the Internet. More importantly, the domestic music environment at that time was still dominated by radio, spread through "recordings" between listeners. Of course, if you look closely at the arrangers and lyricists of Gecko Walking, they also have a lot to do with Wilber Pan's popularity. Therefore, Wilber Pan is being signed by Universal Music for 8 figures.

When Wilber Pan and Angela Chang's "Happy Worship" was released in 2004, it caused a sensation in the Mandarin music industry. The dance in the MV appeared on the streets and even on TV stations (no less than the current Phoenix Legend), and even caused many children to imitate it. In the previous Chinese music scene, apart from the affectionate duets of love songs, these two singers have never had such a tacit understanding whether singing or dancing. "Happy Worship" even created a new glorious era of Chinese music. This also allows Xiong Haizi like me to listen to his rough tapes to sleep every day, dreaming that "when I grow up, I can have beautiful sisters like Angela Chang to dance and have parties with me in the villa."< /p>

In 2009, the year of the rise of the Internet, a photo of Wilber Pan shocked many people. Every cloud in Wilber Pan's picture has a silver lining. Although he was unable to work for 40 days due to a foot injury, under the arrangements of his "global" headquarters, he sang with his favorite American hip-hop star Akon and collaborated with him to create a crossover song "Be With You" 》. Wilber Pan thus became the first person to compose music face to face with a foreign hip-hop singer. Therefore, Wilber Pan has a high status in the rap industry.
