To Fan Chiang and fishLIN, traditional music has a lot of elements that are still current in modern music, such as the methods used by the late singer Lu Liu-hsien, who could chant over 40 lyrical sections in succession without going red or running short of breath.

對他們來說，傳統音樂裡很多音樂元素，放到今天依舊沒有退流行，例如已故的說唱藝人呂柳仙，常一口氣唸完四十幾段歌詞而臉不紅氣不喘，「用今天的角度來說，根本就是超強的饒舌歌手嘛！」
