Synopsis

Orphaned in the old world after taking care of his irresponsible and sick mother for years on end, Kyle finds his life turned upside down.

His already dim world turns even gloomier and coupled with his trauma from losing her, Kyle felt like he had lost his purpose in life.

Living day by day, akin to a soulless puppet, he struggled to keep his suicidal thoughts in check, all whilst trying to make ends meet as a cabbie.

During those dark times, Kyle slowly begins to find solace in the world of music and movies. Even though it had always been there, it truly became something as a bloodline of sorts for him because, individually, both pieces of media, transported him to another world, one where he could feel happy, if even for a fleeting moment.

And, as if the universe wanted even more for him, Kyle met some lovely old people, all of whom treated him as the son they never had, making him feel like he had a family after so long.

This eventually, helped him let go of his trauma and turned him into the lovely soul he was always meant to be.

But as fate would have it, these same people, wanted for Kyle to pursue his dreams because they saw the potential for greatness in him and the wonderous things he could go on to do, even if Kyle himself was oblivious to it.

So, in an effort to make his dreams come true, they ended up gifting him a brand new chance, one that Kyle himself would only go on to realize after his untimely death in a fatal car accident.

Now awake in the new world, still orphaned but with a brighter perspective on life, Kyle, armed with a System, another gift from his loved ones in the previous world, decides to take the chance to pursue his dreams of being a star, one that he was unable to pursue in his previous life due to his lack of talent.

This is the story of a man who will go on to become the most versatile and renowned superstar all over the world... and it starts, just as he takes his first step into the cutthroat world of fame and fortune by registering for the popular singing reality TV competition, 'Rising Voices'.

Known to be a fiercely competitive TV show, Kyle will meet with top contestants from around the world, go up against them, level up and become better, and ultimately, battle with them for the number one spot in the show as a dark horse!

|AUTHOR NOTE|

Just wanted to make it clear, that the singing competition which will be the first arc of the novel, will end around the late twenty-ish or early thirty-ish chapters.

After that, you can expect so much more from the story so look forward to it!

Also, although the setting is in a parallel world, all the songs, scripts and movies (although I will draw inspiration here and there), will be originals penned by yours truly (-‿◦).

This book, wears a lot of its inspirations on its sleeves. But at the same time, I think I've done a pretty nice job of crafting something really refreshing to read. I've always had a thing for showbiz-themed novels and I decided to just give it a shot. So, feel free to peruse through the novel and if you like it, don't hesitate to drop a review. If you don't like it, feel free to also drop a review. Your constructive criticism will be greatly appreciated 😁. Oh and don't mind my shameless 5-star review. It's a necessary evil to get my book out there a bit😉.

What really matters here is the songs. You can't tell the melody of the songs with emojis. No matter how meaningful you write the lyrics, it will never be a song. That effect doesn't happen unless we open the song and read it ourselves. This is my opinion. Also, you are not in china original celebrities, brands, people you can use.

It doesn’t hit quite as hard since there’s no melody but I think it still did quite well for something mostly focused on music but with no way to actually play it. Although if I may rant a bit it genuinely baffles and hurts me that this is lower in ranking than some random bs like I became an evolving space harem monster. Like how are there so many incredibly successful shitty harem stories on this app. Are we as a collective this pathetic? It’s the reason I can’t tell people I enjoy reading fanfiction and light novels in my spare time, since it feels like stories like those are almost half of all on this platform.

The fact that whole novel is to focused on the status and the word Monster makes this lack creative sense

The acting scenes are nice the singing and lyrics are ok at best it’s not easy to write lyrics that sound good without taking form something that’s already been made. My main issue is my man Kyle is a monk. His lack of interest in romance or even just women irks me I mean bro isn’t human and he’s super dense most of the time. But overall I love it even though there’s no romance or spice at all.

I've read a lot of these and this was by far the most boring I've ever read...it started off so interesting...the Mc was interesting and a nice guy.. Cool...they gods or whom ever die...then for wtver reason u choose a talent show..why idk ...this dude has no sort of dive although we knw his goal ..did he look for an agent nah ..one just found him...did he create social media to boost him with his songs or presence nah ....so why do the talent show he clearly had appraisal which show he's not the most talent nor was he growing fast enough to out pace them...for a story that's paid .. I wasn't hook afte 37 chapters I was disappointed but all of tht investment went down the drain ..all for what nothing.....

it’s alright author tries to make it “real” but he levels up extremely quick he took away a level for some odd reason and mc didn’t really feel like the mc for the chapters it was free he basically shared the lime light with lily, lily got a big focus throughout these chapters it wouldn’t far fetched to say she was the mc ofc she was the one who beat the mc her winning was like a popularity contest author tries to make it seem like it was because she was the better singer but literally the comments he wrote were about some of them being die hard lily fans

I loved gamer superstar and thug idol so I wanted a story in a similar genre but it’s hard to find good ones but this scratched the itch. Keep writing it’s great 👍

I really hope there's no unnecessary romance going on. I've read too many novels with this genre but it was ruined because of the supposedly "romance" but it's just pure lust. Hoping for the best author.
