Alan brought Irina and Cecilia to many other interviews for a couple of more days. They were exhausted for the past few days but they knew they had to persist if they wanted to rise in this industry.
Finally, the day arrived for Irina and Cecilia's single to be released. There were some fans who were crazily waiting to listen to the song but there were many waiting to criticize the song.
As the single dropped, the fans went crazy over the songs, especially the duet "STAY." The song's lyrics were touching, and the emotions behind the words were conveyed beautifully by the singers.
However, the only problem with it was that despite promoting and doing all kinds of things, Irina and Cecilia still didn't have the required fame to make the songs popular immediately. After two hours, they still didn't even reach the weekly Top-50 rank on MeloPlay.
They had around 20,000 downloads which is quite a good start, especially for new singers but it looks lacking compared to the quality of the song. They knew that with the quality of the song, it would easily become Top-50 within an hour of release.
However, that was the reality. No matter how good the songs were, with their popularity, it would take time to spread these songs.
"Do you think that it will become popular?"
Cecilia asked worriedly. They released the songs on the evening of Friday. Alan asked them to go home and rest as they had been busy running around. They did as told but they couldn't sleep and Irina and Cecilia's video called Alan.
Now, they were discussing the statistics of the song. It had only been two hours but both Irina and Cecilia were worried.
"Don't worry your voice is incredible. It would eventually become popular. Just believe in yourself."
Alan reassured her. He was not worried as he believed in the quality of the song. With his Advance Idol Manager skill, he knew that a song as great as 'STAY' could achieve many more things even if it was sung by a new singer.
It just needs a little momentum to reach more audiences. And by then, he believes that it would absolutely crush the ranking of weekly songs on MeloPlay.
At the same moment!
John, an anchor with millions of fans on VStream, started a live broadcast. VStream is a platform where people live stream about their lives, reviews, and anything they want. John was an anchor who would review songs.
Despite lacking talent and good looks, John's ability to insult and his penchant for commenting on other people's songs made him a hit with audiences. He was especially known for reviewing bad songs and swearing at the singers who performed them, which gained him even more attention.
John turned on the live broadcast and said loudly;
"Hi everyone, I'm John. It's very late now, and I finally waited for this Friday to review the newly released songs. As much as I look forward to it, I'm sure everyone is as well. What kind of singers will emerge from the Weekly ranking this time?"
He then turned to the rankings and commented on the songs.
John deliberately paused, then slid the screen from the top of the ranking list all the way to the bottom.
"So, for those songs that are obviously better, we won't listen too much. Let's listen to the following bad songs today!"
John made an exaggerated expression.
"Let us witness how bad the bad songs can be!"
A lot of people should know that the best-ranked good songs are those performed by ace singers promoted by various entertainment companies. We are not suitors of pop music, we are only scavengers of rotten singers. Let us come together and witness the bad songs of these bad guys. Let us cast them down and trample on them before these songs completely disappear from our sight!"
His fans were chatting and sending various gifts.
Some said, "Hahaha, I've been waiting all night, and finally it's you!"
Others said, "John is here to scold people!" and "I came here specially to listen to your trolling. Don't let me down, big troll!"
Despite the late hours, John's popularity remained high.
John's penchant for criticizing bad songs and singers was well-known. Anyone who knew him knew that he specialized in grandstanding to find fans and gain popularity from complaining about bad songs.
The barrage of comments from his fans was joyful.
"666666666666!"
"I just like John's low-spirited temperament!"
"Hahaha, wait for John's comments!"
"I think there is a good show tonight, and the names of many songs below are strange. It's weird. I really don't know what gave them the courage to release the song."
The fans were looking forward to the show, and John adjusted his sitting posture. He wiped his nose, put on his earphones, and said, "Without further delay, let's start now. Music Tonight!"
"Come on, let's listen to the bottom one first," one fan said. His fans were just like John who wanted to just criticize bad songs.
"This song is called 'Flowers in Dreams'."
John announced. He found the song at the bottom of the list with only 1,000 downloads and then sprayed his opinion.
"The title of this song sounds like a hit at first glance. It's unremarkable, nothing special. It's also a flower in a dream. Why don't you say it's a flower on cow dung? What, just a dream? What's wrong with dreaming? I have to dream of a flower? Oh, no, maybe the person who wrote the song is cow dung."
He clicked on the song and after listening to it for a while, he began to breathe out.
"This song is really bad. I feel that the songs my second aunt hummed casually when she was making food in the kitchen are better than his. The whole song is artificial, just like eating. Humming like a fart without illness! This kind of song is really rotten, rotten in the bones, rotten in the blood and soul, a suffocating shit song!"
The barrage of comments was like a wave.
"Hahahaha, sharp!"
"John is ruthless in cursing people. I appreciate it! I'll give you 500 Vcoins!"
"Happy! Although John doesn't know anything, I think he can win an award just for swearing!"
"Hurry up, I can't wait to hear the next song!"
John continued to comment on the next song. An hour later, he had commented on more than ten songs, and the number of people online in his live broadcast room had reached 1.5 million.
"I promise, the song I'm going to insult, I will make them regret coming to this world!"
John said, drawing bursts of cheers from his fans. The popularity of the live broadcast room is still growing.
John took a deep breath, took the mouse, and continued to search upwards. Then his eyes locked on the title of one of the songs.
"Shine?"
John smiled contemptuously.
"Okay, then, I will choose this song and criticize it!"
"Everyone, are you ready!"
With John choosing another song, the online audience on the screen and in the live broadcast room suddenly became extraordinarily excited.
"Get ready!"
"Attention everyone, John is about to start an insulting song!"
"Hi everyone, I'm new here. I heard that this anchor is very good at trolling people, so I'm here to learn. What should I prepare?"
Then, it was all kinds of gifts that started swiping the screen. John was very satisfied with the current popularity of the live broadcast room.
John didn't click on the song immediately but said it in a criticizing way.
"This song is called 'Shine'! The name of this song is very stupid at first glance. You know that you are not popular but still brag that you are going shine? Instead of working hard, he must be dreaming of shining with song. I say that rookies shouldn't be too optimistic and think that releasing a song will get them popular. To this kind of person, I just want to say one word, YUCK!"
John finished speaking and didn't forget to make a gesture of spitting, and spat hard. In the anchor room, hearing John's words and seeing his appearance, many people laughed.
"John is really spitting!"
"It hit the mark!"
"I like to listen to John's insults. It's interesting and so comfortable to listen to! It's better than the kind of anchor who only charges people to brag about how good the song is. It's much better!"
"I'm going to recharge right now and give John 1000 Vcoins!"
"There are so many singers in the music world who are not good at bullshit, and that's why it has turned into a mess. Since these kinds of singers are not capable of producing songs, they should honestly go work in a factory. John scolded her beautifully!"
The fans were all cheering. They were all waiting to see John's performance.
Someone has already shouted impatiently.
"Hurry up and start listening!"
"I can't wait to hear how rubbish this rubbish song is!"
"Hahahaha, after listening to it later, let's talk about it together!"
Among the many sounds of urging, John clicked on the song.
𝄞𝄢𝄡𝄟𝄠𝄞𝄢𝄡𝄟𝄠𝄞𝄢𝄡𝄟𝄠𝄞𝄢𝄡𝄟𝄠
A gentle sound of music sounded.
When they heard the prelude, John was slightly taken aback and a little surprised.
"This prelude feels very clean. It sounds a bit good?"
In the live broadcast room, many people were also taken aback for a moment. The song they heard just now basically fell apart from the prelude. But for this song, the prelude feels surprisingly comfortable. Simple, pure, and gentle! People don't know where to start insulting.
Many people looked at John, waiting for him to criticize something.
John's mind turned sharply, but he still coughed, "The prelude to this song, um, it does sound good. Although I am a music reviewer that insults, I am fair and just. I think the music sounds okay but it might not be good afterward. Let's continue listening and judge it afterward!"
