訪問嘉賓:Dr. Holic 何博士
In 2023, Dr. Holic burst onto Toronto’s music scene, transitioning from a Hong Kong high school teacher to a hip-hop artist. This change was a bold declaration for his generation to seize control of their futures.
Adopting the alias Dr. Holic, he skillfully combines pop and hip-hop, incorporating elements of his cultural background. His sound has captivated a global audience, with his debut video “Goodbye” gaining over 200,000 YouTube views. His single “RICE!” also flourished, now with over 800,000 streams, and its music video surpassed 200,000 views. Dr. Holic also worked as the producer, assistant director, and writer for the music videos. He added to his musical portfolio with the trap hit duet “CASINO,” which has over 200,000 streams across platforms, and a melodic drill love song titled “Crashing Chase,” also surpassing 100,000 streams.
Pre-debut, his collaboration with Keung To on King Maker, a renowned Hong Kong TV show, was particularly striking, winning widespread praise with their rendition of “Qi Tian Da Sheng” by Hua Chen Yu.
In 2024, Dr. Holic realigned his focus to Chinese hip-hop, notably with his track “全世界最後一次為你下的雪 (The Last Snow For You),” acclaimed in Taiwan and other Mandarin-speaking areas. This song remained on the 嘻哈華語精選 (Mandarin Hip-Hop Hits) chart for 21 weeks and has nearly 100,000 streams across platforms, symbolizing his reconnection with his roots after his time in North America.
Following this, he has released four more songs this year in Mandarin, English, and Cantonese, collaborating with Asian artists. These songs have charted on editorial playlists like “嘻哈華語精選,” “流行音樂榜,” “獨立最前線,” “男聲報到,” “+852 Rising,” “Fresh Finds Taiwan,” and “HYPE+” on Spotify.
This transition underscores his role not only as a musician but as a cultural influencer. Stay tuned for his showcases this summer, focusing on his Chinese community in Toronto and hopefully Vancouver soon!
2023年,何博士從香港的一名中學教師轉型為嘻哈音樂人,為他的世代發聲,呼籲大家掌握自己的未來。他巧妙地將流行與嘻哈融合,並結合自身文化背景,迅速吸引全球聽眾。首支音樂MV《Goodbye》在YouTube上獲得超過20萬次觀看,單曲《RICE!》擁有超過80萬次串流播放量,音樂MV也突破20萬次觀看。他同時也是這些音樂MV的製作人、助理導演和編劇。
2024年,何博士重新將重心放在中文嘻哈上,單曲《全世界最後一次為你下的雪》在台灣及其他華語地區廣受好評,於嘻哈華語精選榜上連續停留了21周,並在各大平台上獲得近10萬次播放量,象徵他在北美生活後重新與文化根源的聯繫。今年他還發布了四首新歌,融合中文、英語和粵語,並與亞洲音樂人合作,凸顯何博士不僅是一名音樂人,還是一位文化影響者。
