Jay Chou, maintaining the streetwise male bravado, complete with testosterone-infused sound-clips like that of an intensely competitive basketball game in "Bullfight" and a helicopter in flight on "Cute Woman." Coincidentally, these two breakout artists of early 2001 are equally talented in composing their own tracks, and seem to have an affinity for appearing in sexy singlets in their MTVs.

You May Have Heard: "Black Humour" is probably the first single to have hit the airwaves, and is also a chart-lister on Taiwan's Top 20 MTV Board. A heart-wrenching diatribe against a capricious lover, this totally self-composed song is testament to Jay's maturity beyond his years. 

We Fancy: His perfect grasp of the R&B groove, lapsing smoothly into occasional hard rap, yet always with a sensuous sentimentality that appeals to the romantic. His deft delivery of the numerous high notes in this album puts him several notches above other wanna be pop stars and portends towards greater range and diversity in genres in future releases. 

Verdict: Jay Chou looks set to usurp the "Prince of Oriental R&B". With his jock-boy good looks, Jay is the latest flavor to invade the candy-pop Chinese music industry. And the fickle-minded female fans have not missed a cue in paying him due attention and adulation, making Jay's debut and others album one of the better-selling releases in recent months.
