《炮打司令部》是一張收藏鍾翔宇大學畢業後工作、學習和參加活動時寫和製作的作品,主題簡單是他這一路來思考的事情。專輯之所以叫《炮打司令部》,源於他覺得我們熱愛的嘻哈音樂不是被商業化,就是發言權被一些菁英主義者壟斷。唯物而非唯心主義的鍾翔宇不認為音樂本身能改變一切,但他還是試著從草根的視角做出一張屬於小人物的嘻哈專輯。

鍾翔宇「炮打」的「司令部」又是什麼呢?

本專輯的每首歌都針對不同的「司令部」。比方說,〈你所謂的自由民主〉,「炮打」的「司令部」是被偽裝成「自由民主」這「普世價值」的新自由主義,而〈偶像的手冊〉「炮打」的是意識形態國家機器。專輯的名稱或許很嚴肅,不過聽過〈保力達B〉的人應該能了解,這張專輯並不是首首都那麼沈重,雖然那首歌「炮打」的「司令部」是某種流行。

雖然鍾翔宇不敢說自己的音樂有多麼的厲害,但他在創作上花了不少時間和精力:「很少事情能帶給我做音樂帶來的快樂。」

"Bombard the Headquarters" is a collection of songs by Xiangyu after he graduated from university and started working. During this time, he was also active in his independent studies and participation in grassroots organizations. The album is titled "Bombard the Headquarters" because, based upon his observations, the two trends apparent in hip hop are commercialization and the tendency for discourse regarding hip hop to be dominated by elitists. Over the course of Xiangyu's studies, he was inspired by the fact that during the GPCR, the greatest number of schools was built in the shortest amount of time in Chinese history while various experiments were carried out in the fields of production, medicine, education, and etc. Most importantly, these experiments were carried out locally by the people themselves. Unlike idealists, he does not believe that music itself is capable of changing the world, but his music is nonetheless an attempt to create something that reflects ordinary people while drawing inspiration from the revolutionary masses.

What are some of the "headquarters" "bombarded" in this album?

Each song in this album represents different "headquarters." For example, in the song titled "Your So-Called Freedom and Democracy," the "bombarded headquarters" is neoliberalism that is oftentimes presented as the "universal value" of "liberal democracy." Although the name of the album might come off as serious in tone, songs like "Paolyta B" show that this album has a relaxed side as well.

The GPCR was a time during which amateur artists flourished - ordinary people were given platforms where they could share their artwork. Reading about this struck a sympathetic chord in Xiangyu. Though he does not claim to be some sort of great artist, he nonetheless dedicates much time and effort on his music as very few things in life bring him the same kind of happiness that making music does.
