With the album "Skyscraper Zoo", G.E.M. was nominated for five awards: Best Composer, Best Mandarin Female Singer, Best Mandarin Album, Song of the Year and Album of the Year.
As soon as the news came out, fans sent Weibo congratulations in succession, calling for idol strength.
Subsequently, G.E.M. Studio also responded by introducing the significance of the album "Skyscraper Zoo" to G.E.M. again. ..
According to Chen Zhenchuan, Chairman of the Golden Melody Awards Jury, G.E.M. was recognized by almost all the judges.
In this era when people can't agree with each other, it is a rare thing to get unanimous approval from the judges.
Of course, this also proves that G.E.M.'s efforts have not been in vain.
Even so, there is still controversy about G.E.M.'s five golden melody awards.
Some people think that G.E.M.'s five awards nomination is a bit empty, and its strength is still not up to standard. Some people even say that it takes a lot of luck.
Faced with these rumors, many netizens came out to speak for G.E.M ..
You can't say G.E.M won't say Golden Melody Award if you're not shortlisted.
In a word, G.E.M. is working so hard!

We might as well pay attention to G.E.M.'s album "Skyscraper Zoo".
This album can be said to have condensed her great efforts and contributed many "firsts".
Speaking of G.E.M., the impression of "Iron Lung Queen" is deeply rooted in people's hearts.
There is a lot of energy hidden in the small trunk. Listening to her singing, listening is hearty, listening is strength.
The album "Skyscraper Zoo" seems to give us a clearer understanding of G.E.M ..
She is not only a born singer, but also a talented composer.
The album "Skyscraper Zoo" contains 13 songs, and it took only 7 months to produce.
G.E.M. not only arranged the lyrics, but also acted as the producer of his own album for the first time.
Carefully savoring this album, you will find that melody and notes are her emotions, and G.E.M. is expressing herself with songs.
When you stand on the edge of desire
Suddenly it's hard to tell good from evil.
Angels and demons are around.
Who are you kneeling in front of at this time?
In the album titled "Skyscraper Zoo", G.E.M. used animals to describe the tension between civilization and animals.
From the lyrics, you can feel G.E.M.'s strong emotions, from the humble, vulgar words, cockroaches, desires and lies.
The words are bold and sharp, and the drums are rhythmic and full. This song made many people see the musical height of G.E.M. again.
Besides the song itself, the MV of this song is also a big production.
G.E.M. "Skyscraper Zoo" MV
Satire humanity with black humor and pay tribute to classics with symbolic images.
The MV director is Liao, a talented director who won the German Red Dot Design Award.
MV has stolen a lot of classic creations and famous scenic spots, such as the covers of classic albums by Michael Jackson, The Beatles and Pink Floyd, the film "The Fantasy Journey of Pi" and Hollywood landmarks.
With excellent production and meticulous creation, G.E.M. proved that Skyscraper Zoo is worthy of all awards and is not afraid of any doubt.

If the song "Skyscraper Zoo" is G.E.M.'s exposure to reality, then the song "Time" is her analysis of herself.
Originally, G.E.M. wrote Period as a love song, but after thinking about it, he wrote his personal experience into the song.
You said I was a commodity/I couldn't do it without you/These distorted truths/Almost ruined my confidence/Now I'm awake/Now I don't cry anymore/I'm not afraid to stick to myself/make decisions that you didn't make right. ...
This is a lyric of the song "Period". I believe friends who know G.E.M. have mixed feelings when listening to this song.
In 20 19, a series of setbacks, such as "the storm of contract termination" and "the storm of renaming", made G.E.M. spend a very bumpy year.
In March this year, G.E.M. cancelled the contract with Hummingbird Music, a former record company.
In G.E.M.'s Weibo statement, we learned that she has been squeezed and consumed by record companies in recent years.
Speaking of Hummingbird Music, the former record company in G.E.M., it is no exaggeration to say that it is supported by General Electric Company. ..
G.E.M.'s attitude towards the company has always been the same. Even after taking part in The Singer, she refused to accept the olive branch from the outside world and chose to continue to renew her contract with Hummingbird to repay the kindness of Hummingbird that year.
However, hummingbirds seem to be "heartless", and continuous performances, irresponsible endorsements and inaction of public relations are consuming G.E.M ..
Finally, G.E.M.'s sentence "I really tried my best" was full of fatigue and made people feel distressed.
Desire gathers sand into a tower, and value gradually diverges.
The cooperation is in full swing, and it is not so decent when breaking up.
G.E.M. said, "Apart from my father, you said that I trust the most." . This shows that she has great trust and dependence on hummingbird music.
However, the hummingbird music took advantage of G.E.M.'s trust and drove her to the wall.
Hummingbird applied for the trademark registration of "G.E.M." and "G.E.M." on September 5, 20 14, and owned the trademark and related audio-visual copyright until June 2025 10.
This means that after the termination of the contract, she can no longer use the name "G.E.M." to continue her activities, otherwise she will face the name change.
After all this, G.E.M. is like an island in the ocean, without support and direction.
Under great pressure, she still insisted on holding eight concerts arranged by her former company because it was an agreement between her and her fans.
In the last two concerts, G.E.M.'s tense nerves began to relax.
Especially in the scene held in Kaohsiung Dome, G.E.M. shed tears three times and cried herself.
When honor is added, when suffering is added, don't forget that she is just a little girl in her twenties.

Darkness will end and dawn will come.
In this darkness, G.E.M. learned to finish the beginning by giving up.
Ready to go, she gave up the YouTube account of 654.38 billion, but re-applied for a brand-new account named after herself.
She is very open-minded and very clear: "the hukou is dead and people are alive."
Art comes from life, and this unforgettable experience, G.E.M. chose music to let go.
2019165438+1in the early morning of October 22nd, it will be launched. G.E.M. imprisoned the accusation in the lyrics and sealed the past in the melody.
Unfortunately, we finally stopped, and the hummingbirds that didn't want to fly outside the window were whining.
This song also won five consecutive singles titles in China.
Put an end to the past and open a new chapter with relief and blooming.
Through the album "Skyscraper Zoo", we can clearly see the transformation of G.E.M ..
The lyrics are sharper and more precise, and the melody can change people more.
She turned setbacks into nutrients born in the sun and attacked all doubts with her creation.
13 years old, G.E.M. wrote his first song "Sleeping Princess";
1 1 years later, G.E.M. used the song "The Sleeping Princess" from her first album to tell everyone that she was still in Do not forget your initiative mind after all these ups and downs.
Learn to swim only after being thrown into the swimming pool; Exiled to the ocean, just to find the treasure.
G.E.M. always uses subtle language to express gentle stubbornness.
You will find that she is like a delicate but sonorous rose, guarding her inner treasure with spikes. Perhaps this is the charm of GE. ..
In fact, there is no need to get so excited about G.E.M.'s nomination for the Golden Melody Award.
Because those who love her will always believe and recognize her strength, while those who envy her, even if it is not G.E.M. this time, will still "sour" others.
Lillian interviewed a friend of hers, who is a fan of GM. ..
When I asked her about G.E.M.'s album "Skyscraper Zoo", I was very moved by her words: "I think she is right, and many times (her) songs have brought me great comfort and strength."
Music is actually the best way to communicate between singers and fans, and G.E.M. is only seriously communicating with fans.
If people who make music seriously always have to bear gossip and doubts, then should we reflect:
Are those established awards and competitive rankings still meaningful?
