Hua Zhou

The name of the singer known as Hua Zhou, which literally means flower porridge, is still a mystery.

Hua was born in Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region in 1993 and issued her first album at age 22. She first became popular on a website for independent musicians and singers to share their music on Douban, the country's top TV and film fan website.

Her lazy voice and authentic and sometimes barbaric lyrics won her many followers.
