Chen Chusheng

Chen was born in Sanya, Hainan. His family is originally from Puning, Chaoshan (Teohchew area) Guangdong. Since childhood, he has been interested in playing guitar and singing. He is also good at sports like Kungfu, soccer, and fishing. During high school, he played and sang in the nearby pub on weekends. In 2000, aged 19, Chen moved to Shenzhen to explore opportunities. Starting off with working in a restaurant run by his relatives, he soon concentrated on developing a singing career – meeting musicians in the same camp and performing for clubs in town.With his singing skills developed, Chen took chances to participate in some music programmes and competitions, and was highly acclaimed by the audiences. In 2001, Chen won the Most Potential award at the MTV Asia Awards, held in Shanghai. In 2003, he was awarded the champion title of the National Pub Singer Competition, held in Changsha, Hunan, and signed with EMI. In 2007, he was crowned "Super Boy" champion, and signed with E.E. Media. It was confirmed in January 2009, however, Chen broke up with the management firm, which he accused of inappropriate publicisation of his private life for the purpose of raising his profile. After being kept busy with his dispute contract court case and being away from singing exposure, he spent time out most of his career and was pretty low key and in some ways, "shunned" by the music media. By fate of luck, he was called up as a quick replacement contestant in the Chinese singing competition series Singer 2019 ep 11 and came in 4th place but left a deep impression of his singing talent and style, to all present there, including those well known participating singers. From thereon, his popularity took a turn and soared even more and he appeared in many TV shows across China. His humbleness, singing arrangement and voice stand out amongst many other singers and these singers would liked to choose and duet with him.
