Yin Meilai's related introduction.

"My skin color was very dark when I was a child, and people pointed fingers at my mother. I wash my face dozens of times a day, and my tears can melt the soap. I hate my dark skin. " (Lyrics of the song "Black Happiness")

Singer Yin Meilai was born between a black father and a Korean mother. After four years, her new album T3, YOON MIRAE is a talk about her lineage and helpless life. The song "Black Happiness" is Yin Meilai's life talk.

"I just sang before and never told my story. So I want to tell my fans about my past. " Thomas Jay Reed, the father of Yin Meilai, who was once a corporal in the US Army and was known as a "DJ" in the army, explained the new album in English. Yin Meilai said: "It can be said that when I was in my mother's belly, my father's music influenced me. My father, who has 3, records, often invites friends to get together. My father is my music enlightener and my music teacher forever. "

The new album fully shows Yin Meilai's talent, and Yin Meilai has performed all kinds of black music such as Hip Hop, Rap and Soul. The main song "Forget it" is not screaming at the top of my lungs, but a popular song expressed by a rich singing method with a slender vibrato. The melody of "Time and Tears Flowing Together" is simple and lively, and the tone is euphemistic and memorable. But what is even more brilliant is the dripping rap in songs such as "Black Diamond" and "Wage Day". Yin Meilai said frankly, "The best way to communicate with the audience on the stage is to rap. There is passion when performing, and there is also a sense of strength. " Although singing songs is first-class, Yin Meilai is recognized as the best female rapper in Korea.

Yin Meilai, who has been away from music for four years due to problems such as the brokerage company, said: "He dropped out of school because he went on stage at the age of 15, and finally praised the exam and ended his high school life. I had a hard time. I thought about giving up music, and even considered opening a real estate agency. But I can't live without music. "

Half-blood has brought her too much pain. "When I was a child, I came to Korea. I didn't have any friends or speak Korean, so I often stayed in the video game hall. The owner of the game hall is an old woman, and she is my best friend. When I speak a word of English, other children will shout' Nigger',' Yankee Go Home' and' Buy you a plane ticket and go back to your own country'. I have also attended a foreign school, but only two black children, including me, are still discriminated against. "

Yin Meilai said, "Americans, Koreans and blacks, I don't belong to any of them. All this time, I don't know who I should make friends with. Strangely, after my debut, people just regarded me as an artist. I was a little at a loss at first, but now of course I am very happy. "

Yin Meilai concealed the fact that he had a black father when he first started out. The agency said to her, "If you say you have black blood, people will discriminate against you. Just say that your grandfather or grandmother is black. "

Yin Meilai said with a smile, "When I debuted, I said I was older, so I was 19 for four years in a row."

"Last year, because of the mixed-race Korean football star Heinz Ward, South Korea suddenly became very concerned about mixed-race. To tell the truth, I was very angry at that time. Was there no mixed-race in Korea before Hynes Ward succeeded? So what is it now? Now it is as calm as ever. " At present, Yin Meilai is considering how to help mixed-race children.

Yin Meilai dreams of getting rid of the pressure of pursuing success all the time and becoming a pure musician, but it's not easy. Because there are still livelihood issues. "Although I started to make music out of love and love, with the growth of my age, I couldn't help but make some music against my will for my life. That is to say, in order to buy a house for my mother and make the people I care about live better, I began to take music as my career. I hope that after 1 years, I can make my favorite music without considering the public's reaction. "
