My cousin video-called me from Vancouver last night, her face glowing with excitement. ‘Have you heard Walter Kwan’s new song Sunday?’ she asked, humming the melody. ‘All my friends in China are sharing it on Weibo, but when I click the link… nothing. Just that frustrating ‘content not available in your region’ message.’
I could hear the disappointment in her voice – that particular tone overseas Chinese know too well. It’s not just about missing a song; it’s about feeling disconnected from the cultural conversations happening back home. While Walter Kwan joins QQ Music’s Flying Alliance as a special mentor, creating buzz across Chinese social media, my cousin and millions like her are left watching from the sidelines.
What struck me was her description of trying to access the content: ‘I even asked Mom to screen-record the music video and send it through WeChat, but the quality was so pixelated it looked like abstract art.’ She laughed, but I could tell it wasn’t really funny. When cultural content becomes this hard to reach, it starts feeling like you’re losing part of your identity.
I remember visiting her in Vancouver last summer – her apartment filled with Chinese cookbooks, her shelf stacked with Chinese novels, yet her entertainment options limited to whatever crossed the ocean successfully. She showed me her Spotify playlist: ‘See? I have Jay Chou, but none of the new indie artists like Walter Kwan. It’s like I’m stuck in 2019 while everyone else moves forward.’
The irony is palpable. While QQ Music’s Flying Alliance aims to ‘support music creators’ and help independent voices like Walter Kwan reach wider audiences, geographic barriers are creating invisible walls around that very audience. My cousin, who would happily pay for a QQ Music subscription, can’t even access the platform properly from Canada.
There’s something deeply personal about music access. When Walter sings about ‘escape not being cowardice but clarity’ in Sunday, it resonates differently when you’re literally separated by oceans and firewalls. My cousin put it perfectly: ‘It’s not just FOMO – it’s like everyone’s having a conversation in the next room, and I can only hear muffled voices through the wall.’
As we ended our call, she sighed: ‘Maybe you can listen to Sunday for me and tell me if it’s as good as everyone says?’ It hit me then – in an age where music should connect us, geo-restrictions are creating the very divisions art seeks to bridge.
