That's already enough reason why.
That's not a matter. Who cares if she's an extremely unknown artist or not, or if she's pulling tricks in order to promote her album. She definitely managed to get some attention with that, and I believe much more than if she had released a plain cover. not all artists in the world have to follow a diviaish style of building up their careers. Not all people who release a cd want to become an "ayumi hamasaki" blah blah For instance, comedians can make albums, even if they become a complete failure. Maybe this artist has other jobs and do other things for as living, heck who knows, we have no info on her career at all.

Did you see any Chinese articles talking about this album because it looks like MY STORY? Yea, she got attention here, obvious why.
I get what you mean, I'm just not sure they did it all for fun and great sense of humor, but more like "borrowing" creative ideas. Maybe if the artist was a comedian, but with those songs it doesn't sound like it. We can never know of course, if it's a joke or a creative rip off.
