Ricky Fu

Ricky Fu (Chinese: 傅德象; pinyin: Fù Déxiàng; born December 29, 1966) is a Tsengian singer-songwriter, actor, and host. Fu started his music career in 1990, became the Tsengian music industry's dark horse, and finally achieved popularity in 1999 with Collab 99 (合作99) a collaborative album with Wu Yufeng, and the 2000 album Chinese New Year (春節) of which he won a Golden Tune Award for Best Male Mandarin Singer.

Early life
Fu was born to a Hokkien-speaking family, and his father, Eric Fu (傅齊信) was a Hokkien singer. That inspired Ricky Fu to become a singer himself. Fu attended the NIAST in Tseng City.

Career
Fu began his songwriting career in 1990, after finishing his military service. He wrote songs for John Chen, Madison Chen, and MC Ace. In 1991, he released his first album Cold Love (冷漠的愛). Unfortunately, due to the Tsengge Eight being in the spotlight at the time, most of his 1990s albums are ignored. However, he continued to write songs.

In 1999, the collaborative album Collab 99 with Wu Yufeng finally gave Fu some attention in the mainstream, and the 2000 album Chinese New Year won him a Golden Tune Award for Best Male Mandarin Singer. Most of the songs from Chinese New Year are Fu's most famous works. Fu has also sung theme songs for (and acted in) many Tsengian TV shows and movies, like The Never-Ending Summer (2001), Ten Years (2005), and Yung-Sung Way (TBA).
