Music Album Review -- Show Luo Zhi Xiang (SPESHOW)

The long awaited album from Show Luo Zhi Xiang is out!!

This latest offering is titled SPESHOW and it is his 4th album so far. It consists of 11 tracks that are worth listening to.

In SPESHOW album, Show has worked together with Japanese singer Kumi Koda and Simon Webbe in track 6 and 9 respectively. Show even has a composition of his own, in track 10, titled Self Infatuation.

Twinkle is an english song in which Show and Kumi Koda have a duet with. It is a fast paced song in which Show tried his hand at singing in english. Although it is a rather decent attempt from him due to his sometimes unclear pronounciation, full marks must be given to his courage and effort.

Track 9 is titled The King's Game. Simon Webbe has contributed to this song by rapping.

This latest album is also a collaboration of top notch composers like Malaysian singer/composer Gary Cao (track 2). This track is a combination of retro and easy listening dance number. Also watch out for track 7, where this song is specially tailored for Show by Queen of J-Pop, Ayumi Hamasaki's specially assigned composer. Reowned composer Lim has also contributed to this album in track 3 titled Perfect Man. Perfect Man has a R and B type of feel in which Show has executed very well in his previous albums.

The most catchy song of this album should be track 1, titled Jing Wu Men. Watch out for this music video (if you have the chance to catch it) for the reason why the media has given him the title as Taiwanese representation of Rain. Show is reowned for his superb dancing skills and stage presence. He has truly earned the nickname as 'Wu Tai Xiao Ba Wang'.

Show is an extremely hardworking entertainer who never fails to give 100% in whatever he does, whether in singing, hosting and acting. He has been in the entertainment scene since young and has never looked back since.

Keep a lookout for this potential king of Chinese Pop. His level of star power has been raising higher and higher...... .
