Jay Chou supports South Fist
by kelvin@multistars - 29th April 2004
Jay Chou supports junior fellow apprentice "South Fist Mama", not only did he give them their name, he also appeared in their MV. Jay also sang on the first plugged track "Childhood" which is the MV he is in. Not only is this the first time Jay is singing a song written by someone else, it is also the first time he is appearing as a guest in someone else's MV.
"South Fist" represents power, "Mama" represents warmth, they are a group of good friends to Jay in terms of music, in order to fulfil their dream he helped them film the MV, making "South Fist Mama" moved they expressed that afterwards all their income will be divided into 5, one for Jay to say thanks. Of course Jay turned them down politely.
They will be releasing their debut album "Summer of South Fist Mama" on the 12th of May.
"South Fist Mama" is made up of 4 of Jay's good friends, they include Ju Pao, Gary, Dan Tou and Yu Hao. Ju Pao was the music producer in Jay's tour concert, Gary is the designated professional recording master for every Jay album, Dan Tou is Jay's best basketball friend, he is also the best purchase expert when Jay is buying musical instruments. Yu Hao was a younger classmate in Jay's music class in Tamkang Middle School, at the moment he is studying Taiwan university music degree, he can play the piano well.
The reason why Jay introduced these 4 friends to the company was because Jay thought: "They make me think of my old self!"
