Universal Music - Early Success

Jolin first got into the music industry by partaking in an MTV singing contest, which she won. She was then signed to Universal Music and during the summer of 1999, her first single "Living With the World" (和世界做鄰居) was released and turned into a massive hit. This success led to the release of her debut album Jolin 1019, which shot her to stardom due to her appeal with younger audiences. After months of promotions and special releases of the album, Jolin released her sophomore album Don't Stop in May 2000. This album cemented her status as one of Taiwan's rising stars and many of the songs proved to be hits throughout Asia.

In late 2000, her third album was released. Although Show Your Love was a hit, it was not as successful as her previously released albums.

Taiwanese singer, songwriter, and actress

Jolin Tsai (Mandarin:[tsʰaɪ]; Chinese: 蔡依林; born September 15, 1980) is a Taiwanese singer, songwriter, and actress. Recognized as the "Queen of C-Pop", Tsai is one of the most influential figures in the Chinese-speaking world's pop culture. Her continuous reinvention and versatility in musical style and visual presentation have established her as a leading figure in popularizing dance-pop music in Greater China. Tsai exercises significant creative control over her career, and her work, which often addresses societal issues and ideological themes, has achieved both commercial success and critical acclaim.

Born in Hsinchuang, Taiwan, Tsai gained prominence in 1998 after winning a singing competition organized by MTV Mandarin. Her debut album, 1019 (1999), was a commercial success and cemented her status as a teen idol with a significant following among teenagers. With the release of Magic (2003), Tsai transitioned to a more dance-oriented musical style, further establishing her reputation with Dancing Diva (2006), which solidified her role as a prominent dance-pop artist in the Chinese music scene.

In 2009, Tsai founded her own company, Eternal, and began to assert creative control over all aspects of her career. The album Myself (2010) marked a turning point, showcasing themes of girl power and concern for minority issues. Her subsequent album, Muse (2012), combined mainstream appeal with independent music elements, while Play (2014) was noted for advancing Chinese dance music on a global stage. Her album Ugly Beauty (2018) delved into themes of societal beauty standards and psychological complexity.

Tsai has sold over 25 million records, making her the highest-selling Taiwanese female recording artist since 2000. Since the release of Magic (2003), each of her studio albums has been the highest-selling album by a female artist in Taiwan for the year of its release, wit
