Personality assessment
Yang Kun's husky voice is full of male charm, which has become the symbol of his unique Jianghu. Yang Kun's combination of rigidity and softness is amazing, so she is called "sexy male voice". Through years of accumulation, Yang Kun has established a unique style of music creation. His magnetic voice, slightly hoarse blasting texture, almost rap articulation, free and easy use of falsetto, and the treatment of falsetto, which often appears at the end of phrases, make Yang Kun a special music notation in Chinese pop music. Yang Kun performed the gentle and charming song "Itching" in a completely different style from the original song, and the heartbeat in the music gave people a strong sense of freshness (Tencent Review).
Yang Kun is particularly masculine. He is a bit cool, not particularly talkative, but he has good taste (Hou Xiangting's comments).
Yang Kun is a talented male singer. In addition to his unique style in China, he skillfully used American and Latin American styles. He is very original and unique (ChrisBellman comments).
Yang Kun emphatically analyzed the differences between the original and the adapted music in The Battle of Nature. In contrast, we can always find the highlights or shortcomings of his adaptation of songs (Sina Review).
