I am the fifth king

With the power of the media, coupled with He Jin's continuous publicity campaign in North America, the sales figures of "You and Me" have been rising steadily.

"iffiletyougo"

"mylove"

"you're beautiful"

"Take Me To Your Heart"

With the help of the radio and the singing of those underground singers in the underground circle, the four songs quickly became popular throughout the United States in just a few days.

Philadelphia, Kensington Avenue.

Black teenager walking down the street holding a basketball.

hiding in the snow

Trying to forget, but how can I just leave

looking at the bustling streets

but I can only hear my own heartbeat

……

The Nike store next to the street was playing "takemetoyourheart". He Jin's voice passed through the curtain and reached the boy's ears.

Hearing the singing, the boy hesitated and stopped.

He has heard this song many times.

Not only this one, he has also listened to the other songs of this album many times.

Every day, when he leaves for school, the streets, shops and even the underground singers performing in the square are singing songs from this album.

Originally, he didn't like this kind of love song. Like other black people, he likes rap.

But when he listened to it more times, he found that he seemed to like these songs.

He was really surprised that this kind of sound that he had never felt was pleasant.

Snapped!

After clapping the basketball, he turned and walked towards the audio store across the street.

In his mind, these songs should be very good to listen to and practice.

The only regret is that these songs, except for "ifiletyougo", are all lyrical. Listening to them practice may not be very passionate.

"Hi! Kobe!"

This video store has a complete range of music, and Kobe often buys very passionate rap songs here, so the boss is fairly familiar with him.

Today's audio-visual store business is very good, the small space is crowded with people, and people come in and out from time to time.

"Choose whatever song you need, I won't find it for you."

While collecting money from other customers, the boss explained to Kobe.

Kobe nodded without speaking, and walked straight to the record rack.

There are a lot of records on the record shelf, perhaps because the business has been so good recently, the record placement is a bit messy.

Kobe squeezed people in front of the record shelf for a long time, and he gradually frowned.

He didn't find the record he wanted.

Turning around and walking towards the boss, "Do you have that album that's been playing everywhere on the street recently?"

Kobe has been with basketball since he was a child. His father was a basketball player, and his goal is to become an NBA basketball player.

He only knows how to practice ball all the year round, which makes him a bit withdrawn and not good at communicating with people.

Therefore, he seemed a little shy when he spoke.

"You said that Chinese record! You actually listen to his songs?"

The boss raised his head and looked at him, a little surprised that this young man who had only listened to singing had changed his style.

"I'm here to buy it!"

Kobe said.

"Then you may have to wait, this Chinese is so popular recently, his songs are in short supply, many people are here for him.

Now, look at that bunch of people, they all bought this record. "

The boss pointed to a spot in the store, where seven or eight people were gathering around, obviously picking things up.

Kobe nodded and walked to the position.

Although he was still young, Kobe had a stronger body than ordinary people through regular basketball training since he was a child. Therefore, he squeezed into the crowd without much effort.

Compared to other people who need to choose a good-looking album cover, Kobe didn't choose one, just picked one up, squeezed out of the crowd, found the boss and paid for it.

After leaving the store, Kobe looked at the record in his hand.

On the cover, He Jin is wearing a black hat, holding a rose in his hand, and looking forward with a faint smile on his face.

The background of the cover is pitch black, with red lines on the corners.

Just looking at the cover, this album is very collectable.

i will see you again

smile at me

if let you go

how would i know

……

On the square not far away, a singer was singing "ifiletyougo". The singing sound drifted into Kobe's ears, making him want to sing along.

Shaking his head, Kobe let go of his thoughts of singing along, put the record in his schoolbag, and walked to school with the basketball in his arms.

He is the main force of the basketball team of Lower Merion Middle School, and he has more or less training every day. March Madness has just ended two months, and the new league will start soon, so he has to train hard.

When he arrived at school, Kobe didn't think about other things, but began to concentrate on basketball training.

He's a very focused guy, especially with basketball.

Enthusiasm, persistence, sternness, retaliation and fearlessness, this is the spirit he pursues, just like the mamba snake on the African grassland.

"Hi! Kobe, I have collected a very nice record, it is sung by a Chinese, let me tell you, this Chinese sings really well, I paid attention to him when he released EP last year.

I knew he was going to be a superstar, and sure enough, when his album was released this year, it became a big hit. "

During the training break, teammate Evan Mengsky approached Kobe with a mysterious face.

Kobe subconsciously glanced at his schoolbag.

Although he is a football fanatic, it does not mean that he is isolated from the outside world.

The record Evan Monsky was talking about, Bryant concluded, was 100 percent the record he had just bought.

"Kobe, I bought two, do you want me to give you one?"

Evan Monsky added.

As the core of the team, the relationship between teammates and Kobe is still good.

Although Kobe particularly hates some guys who eat and wait to die, he still recognizes Evan Monsky.

"No, I already have it!"

Kobe refused.

One record is enough. Kobe is not a collector. He listens to songs because he likes to listen to songs. One record is enough for him to listen to. There is no need for him to take an extra record home.

"Come on, come on, keep training, our goal this season is the championship, we can't be too lazy!"

The coach clapped his hands to signal to continue training.

……

In the evening, Kobe returned home after a day of classes and training, and immediately went into the bedroom after eating.

He also remembers buying a record himself.

Although he was tired of listening to the songs on this record on the street, the one he bought and the ones he heard from other places sounded completely different.

empty streets, empty houses

empty heart

i am so lonely

……

Lying on his back on the bed, He Jin's voice came out from the record player. Listening to this pleasant melody, Kobe was full of thoughts.

He suddenly wants to be in love.

This singing made him want to try the taste of love.

The singing continued, and Kobe couldn't help singing along as he listened.

"Kobe! What are you doing?"

Maybe the record player was loud, and his mother's voice came from outside the bedroom.

"No, I'm listening to records!"

Kobe said, lowering his voice.

I have to say that Kobe admits that this album is indeed very good, and it is good to hear that he is looking forward to the singer's next album.
