S4 Spherical 2 Velocity Evaluate | Name Me By Hearth 4 二公披荆斩棘4

I’ve written a pace overview for Spherical 1, now be ready for Spherical 2! The movies premiered on YouTube on the thirty first of August and the first of September 2024.

There was an enormous reshuffle of members after Spherical 1, which I believe is a ploy to disperse the favored Youthful Brothers and provides the Elder Brothers a tad little bit of aggressive benefit.

That mentioned, 3 Elder Brothers can be swapped with one other 3 Youthful Brothers. They’re:

1. MIYAVI – I am not stunned… Neither are the Elder Brothers!

2. Fu Xin Bo (付辛博)

3. Du Hai Tao (杜海涛)

4. Jason Fu Lengthy Fei (符龙飞) – dude is so pleased when he is promoted to a senior citizen LOL

5. 9 Gao Qing Chen (高卿尘)

6. Caelan Moriarty (庆怜) – the irony, he is the youngest within the competitors

The music program additionally elected new leaders based mostly on Spherical 1’s Particular person Recognition Votes. With this, our 8 leaders are:

1. Hacken Lee (李克勤)

2. Liang Lengthy (梁龙)

3. Reno Wang Zhe Liang (王铮亮)

4. William Wei Li An (韦礼安) – new chief, yay!

5. Azora Chin You Zhang Jin (尤长靖)

6. Fox Hu Xia (胡夏)

7. Shi Kai (石凯)

8. Zao An (早安) – welcome to the grownup world, mate!

Elder Brothers: Reno Wang Zheng Liang (王铮亮), Allen Lin Yi Lun (林依轮), Evan Yo Tsai Min You (蔡旻佑), and 9 Gao Qing Chen (高卿尘)

Reno Wang can not seem to escape from Season 3 Chen Chu Sheng’s psychological-themed stage! 

This efficiency tells the story of a “musician” Reno and his assistant, Allen Lin, who saved 9 Gao hostage (in a cage… get it? GET IT???) to maintain producing music for Reno. Everybody’s singing and performing have been fairly convincing, significantly the X-part. 

Evan Yo lastly confirmed off his violin abilities by taking part in the classical piece Csárdás. 9 Gao perfected the X-part by leaping right into a glass water tank and smirking to kill his abuser’s pleasure… All whereas submerged till the tip of the music.

Impeccable efficiency, a a lot clearer storyline than Spherical 1!

William Wei Li An (韦礼安), Caelan Moriarty (庆怜), Joe Xu Hai Qiao (徐海乔) and Yan Yi Kuan (严屹宽)

This masterpiece deserves a weblog by itself. This stage is Season 3’s Joker, however Turning into Human the First Time.

The play with black and white accentuates the music’s melancholy and loneliness. The phantasm of dancers forcefully grabbing the brothers. A brother attempting his greatest, regardless of futile efforts, to push in opposition to a stable wall. One other brother drenched beneath the heavy bathe…

Simply watch the video. That is artistry in its most interesting type!

Elder Brothers: Liang Lengthy (梁龙), Jason Fu Lengthy Fei (符龙飞) and Jerry Yuan Cheng Jie (袁成杰)

Because the title suggests, the thought is about disco and the efficiency positively sells! The singing, background music, dancing, drama… Every little thing.

The storyline was easy and delivered properly. Jerry Yuan carried out properly, despite the fact that he’s an actor by profession. Total, it is a light-hearted present that prompts each one to sing and dance alongside. Liang Lengthy made a noticeable mistake in direction of the tip of the dance, however who cares when everyone seems to be having fun with themselves!

Elder Brothers: Hacken Lee (李克勤), Akira (黑泽良平), and Charlie Qin Hao (秦昊)

This group scored the second highest. They have been overscored and overhyped… this is why.

This system has been teasing us about Hacken Lee and Akira’s humongous effort to be taught Chinese language opera. It was quite complete, from the best way they stroll and speak, all the way down to the small print of gestures and facial expressions.

Will we get to see their fruits of labour? Barely, as the 2 Elder Brothers have minimal stage presence.

They primarily stay seated in costume and full make-up all through the efficiency. Akira had a short 1-minute section the place he wielded the sword and sang a number of strains. Hacken hardly contributed something, whereas the opposite brother’s function was restricted to narrating.

Season 3’s Fowl Zhang Yuan (张远) additionally carried out the Peking Opera and he sang a minimum of half of the music.

Do not get me unsuitable: everybody carried out their half properly. It was a faultless efficiency: my solely drawback was that it didn’t dwell as much as the advertising hype.

One bonus level for Akira for his willingness to cross-dress as a girl… and genuinely delve into his character, significantly when he is eradicating “her” make-up.

Youthful Brothers:  Azora Chin You Zhang Jing (尤长靖), MIYAVI, Rhydian Vaughan Feng Xiao Yue (凤小岳), J.zen Zhu Xing Jie (朱星杰), and Huang Xiao (黄潇)

Azora Chin is intelligent by recruiting one of the best guitarist and dancer of the season, MIYAVI and Huang Xiao respectively, into his group. 

It is a rehash of yet one more widespread music, which labored fairly properly in the long run. The X-part exhibits a duel(?) between MIYAVI and Feng Xiao Yue… through conventional devices! We’ve got MIYAVI on shamisen, Feng on guqin. 

J.zen and Huang Xiao’s raps are good; Azora Chin’s vocals stay uncontested. The impression wasn’t as sturdy as Spherical 1, although one factor is for positive:

Youthful brothers: Alan Aruna (阿如那), Jing Lengthy (井胧), and Shi Kai (石凯)

That is in all probability the primary stage in Name Me By Hearth historical past to drag an action-packed feat! The story was easy: two gangsters (Shi Kai and Jing Lengthy) brawling in opposition to the Particular Arms Pressure (Aruna). 

The singing was good… The motion was even higher! There was a section the place Jing Lengthy scissors-wrapped himself round Aruna… Jogs my memory of Black Widow and Winter Soldier hahaha. 

They’re the second-best performing group amongst the Youthful Brothers, an enormous enchancment from Spherical 1!

Youthful Brothers: Fox Hu Xia (胡夏), Fu Xin Bo (付辛博), Austin Li Jia Qi (李佳琦), Wang Yi Zhe (王一哲), and Jiao Mai Qi (焦迈奇)

It is a continuation of Fox Hu Xia’s Spherical 1 efficiency, Who. The one distinction is that the music is not pretty much as good as the previous… maybe it is the melody’s drawback?

All 4 brothers delivered the feelings properly, nevertheless, the general atmosphere fell flat and boring after some time. Fox Hu Xia and Austin Li ought to have stood out with their harmonica play, however sadly too brief to be of any important worth.

This is among the frequent phenomena the place the efficiency ticked all of the technical elements however missed the wow issue.

Youthful Brothers: Zao An (早安), Du Hai Tao (杜海涛), Dylan Xiong Zi Qi (熊梓淇), and Ning Huan Yu (宁桓宇)

This… I’ve no phrases. In a foul method.

This group is the weakest from the beginning as a result of Ning Huan Yu is the one skilled singer. As if this composition is not harmful sufficient, this piece initially had a artistic restriction that bans improv… To be particular, adapting the lyrics and rap, which is Zao An’s bane of existence.

The music… is that this even a music, do they even sing? The brothers are merely talking alongside the tune… and a few solo-ed off-key.

Unhappy to say, that is what you get each time an agenda takes priority. They kill each the soul and the music.

One pity level for Dylan Xiong as a result of his excessive notes are the one music of this present.

A collaboration between Elder and Youthful Brothers.

Elder Brothers: Reno Wang Zheng Liang (王铮亮) and Joe Xu Hai Qiao (徐海乔)

Youthful Brothers: Fox Hu Xia (胡夏) and Huang Xiao (黄潇)

One other must-watch efficiency! 

The story was a few king, Joe Xu, manipulating the beggar, Huang Xiao. Reno Wang and Fox Hu are answerable for the vocals.

Fox Hu is among the uncommon qualities who calls for everybody’s consideration each time he sings. On this sense, Fox Hu’s vocals outshine Reno’s. Reno tried falsetto in some unspecified time in the future however could not fairly hit them. 

Joe Xu’s performing is terrifyingly convincing as a grasp manipulator, significantly when he dons the masks of a psychopathic narcissist whereas toying with the poor beggar, Huang Xiao. Talking of which… 

I beforehand commented on how Huang Xiao must carry his A-game to remain on this competitors… And this Spherical actually threw one at his doorstep.

This could be a bit biased, however hey, not each dancer can obtain what Huang Xiao did. His expressions whereas being puppetted by Joe Xu, the tacit timing with king’s fingers… Phenomenal. I’ve no phrases, simply watch the video already!!! 

For the primary half of Spherical 2, one Elder Brother group can be challenged by three Youthful Brother teams…and vice versa for its second half. Reno Wang and Azora Chin took the lead of their respective age group.

All in all, I feel the seniors outperformed the juniors, which tallies with their general scores:

The scores are moderately truthful, reflecting the stage high quality as it’s… Apart from Hacken Lee’s workforce. I nonetheless suppose it is an overrating. All in all, the Elder Brothers received by fairly a margin… greater than 50 factors!

Bear in mind how Huang Xiao was the least widespread Youthful Brother in Spherical 1? Who knew the Beggar was his saviour! Not solely did he bodily fly up the stage for this Spherical, however his rating additionally soared!

The Youthful Brothers knew this truth early (it is a no-brainer, actually) and ready themselves for the departure of two different members: Wang Yi Zhe and Dylan Xiong Zi Qi.

This week is hard!! “Rising Up with 10,000 Kilos of Strain” (负重一万斤长大) might be my decide of the week, adopted very, very intently by the collaboration piece, “The King and The Beggar.” (国王与乞丐)

What about one of the best Brother?

Huang Xiao, palms down. Joe Xu Hai Qiao (徐海乔) is one other formidable contender… This man is flexible!

Spherical 3 of Name Me By Hearth Season 4 will see collaboration between two teams! Each group is free to decide on whichever workforce they like, whatever the age. With this, count on astounding performances from these distinctive collaborations:

1. Reno Wang 王铮亮 (Elder) and Shi Kai 石凯 (Youthful)

2. Hacken Lee 李克勤 (Elder) and Azora Chin 尤长靖 (Youthful)

3. Liang Lengthy 梁龙 (Elder) and William Wei 韦礼安 (Elder)

4. Fox Hu 胡夏 (Youthful) and Zao An 早安 (Youthful)

I can not wait! See you all within the subsequent weblog put up!!
