Jay Chou has released an album each year since he has been out, last year he practically handed in a blank paper, he used his time in filming. Yesterday, reporters found out from Mainland China Sony Records, Jay Chou will indeed be releasing an album this year, they are planning it for Spring, it happens to be the same "April this year" that Jay Chou has revealed, it looks like the rumour ridden Jay Chou will be returning to music.
At the awards that just finished last night, Jay Chou had left his beard to grow, lots of fans left messages, saying it made him look ragged. Jay Chou mocked himself saying he left it because "he's been having bad luck recently". In the past year Jay Chou has focused his energy filming movies such as "The Treasure Hunter" and "True Legend", but the release of these movies has not brought Jay Chou good luck, "The Treasure Hunter" challenged the limits of the audience, a very poor box office, Taiwanese female artist Devin Wu went on a show and revealed she lost her virginity to Jay Chou at 16...a entertainment figure points out that Jay Chou will have to return to music to regain his popularity under these circumstances.
At the awards ceremony, Jay Chou got an award at the end. The most surprising thing was even though last year he only released the duet song "Sand Painting", yet Jay Chou won Best Singer-songwriter in Asia, Most Popular Male Artist, Best Duet in Taiwan, Best Gold Song in the Nation and more, a total of 7 awards. When he appeared to perform, the level of cheering from the fans proved that his popularity has not decreased.
In order to pay back the fans, Jay Chou revealed, he will be releasing an album this year in April, at present he has already recorded 2, 3 songs, as for the style, it might be "rock fantasy style". Sony Records PR personnel confirmed, after the Spring Festival they started planning Jay Chou's new album, as soon as they get more news they will notify the fans. And between June and July, Jay Chou will be holding a new world tour.
