Artists We Love: Robynn & Kendy

Our latest musical obsession is Robynn & Kendy. While you may be thinking we’ve featured a lot of female singers, and even a lot of duos, Robynn & Kendy are the first artists we’ve featured who sing Chinese/Contonese pop music; and they do it beautifully.
They introduced the world to their music via a YouTube in 2011 and created enough of a following to play shopping malls, cafés, singing competitions,and media events.This created enough momentum for the girls to get signed to Universal Music Group in 2012 and they’ve continued to build upon that success since then.
Their voices blend together beautifully and the harmonies and melodies they create transcend any and all language barriers that may exist. Any fan of opera knows powerful music and emotive singers can convey feeling; the language is almost an afterthought. While Robynn & Kendy sing pop songs, they effectively let tempo and tone create the mood for the song allowing the listener to do something American pop music seldom does; infer. For those who prefer literal translations, the duo offer English translations to several tracks which are equally gorgeous. Some of their songs feature what seems to be something of a signature where one of the girls sings the chorus in Cantonese while the other harmonizes in English: It sounds absolutely gorgeous.
Incidentally, their videos are equally stunning, find a couple of our favorites below!
