Jay Chou, often referred to as the “King of Mandopop,” is a multitalented Taiwanese artist known worldwide for his prowess as a singer-songwriter, pianist, music and film producer, actor, director and art collector. His latest album, Greatest Works of Art, was an internationally bestselling album in 2022 — the title track’s music video garnered over 140 million views on Weibo in just one day, and the album has since accumulated more than 1 billion views across various platforms.
According to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), Chou had the most album sales globally last year, making him the first Mandopop artist ever to accomplish this feat. The IFPI 2022 Global Album Sales Chart is based on combined global physical and digital album sales, and Chou was followed by Korean boy band BTS in second place and Taylor Swift in third place.
Chou’s unique blend of pop, R&B, hip-hop and traditional Chinese elements, known as “J-Style,” has set him apart in the entertainment industry, garnering him over 200 awards and accolades, including Best Male Singer and Best Album at the Golden Melody Awards and a Best-Selling Artist award at the World Music Awards.
In addition to his musical achievements, Chou has made a notable impact on the film industry. He starred in the 2011 superhero comedy film The Green Hornet alongside Seth Rogen and Christoph Waltz, which was a commercial success, grossing over $228 million worldwide.
Chou’s film directorial debut, Secret, received critical acclaim, with Chou serving as co-writer, director and male lead, while also composing original music for the film. The heartwrenching time-travel romance went on to win Outstanding Taiwanese Film of the Year at the Golden Horse Awards.
