Scripps College Jay Chou’s Kuso Music: Cultural Fusion in the Age of the Internet Submitted to Professor Hao Huang and Professor Bill Alves By Stz-Tsung (Stone) Han for Senior Thesis 2021 May 7th Han2 Abstract Jay Chou is one of the most significant singers in Chinese popular music history. One of Chou’s greatest achievements is his implementation of the Chinese “Egao” culture in his music, which originated from Japanese Kuso culture. Such an approach not only created his unique style but also allowed him to adopt various musical techniques together seamlessly. By doing so, Chou created a style that references multiple traditional musical conventions without being bound by any of them. This study aims to examine the evolution of the Kuso culture as well as Chou’s implementation of it. The development of Kuso is fostered by the popularization of the Internet in China and the popularity of Kuso artists such as Jay Chou.
