I Am a Singer (season 4), is the fourth season of the Chinese version of the Korean reality show I Am a Singer. The show was broadcast on Hunan Television in 2016.

The season premiered on January 15, 2016, and concluded on April 15, 2016. Chinese-American singer Coco Lee was the winner of the season, becoming the first non-mainland Chinese national to win the show. Jeff Chang came in second, and Korean singer Hwang Chi-yeul finished third place.

Competition format

Most of the competition followed the same format as the previous series, including the Challenge rounds debuted in the last season. Like the previous seasons, the votes counted from both the Qualifier and Knockout rounds determined which singer was eliminated for the night. For the Challenge round, the Challenger had to rank in the top four (4th place or better) to stay in the competition; failure to do so results in the challenger's elimination.

I Am a Singer- Who Will Challenge

An online Spin-off of the show, I Am a Singer- Who Will Challenge (我是歌手—誰來踢館) was aired daily from December 5, 2015, until the finale on January 23, 2016, on the online site of Mango TV, for a total of 50 days.

The site featured each contestant having their own Challenge page, where online viewers were able recommend the singers in participating the competition. When a singer's recommendation hit at least 18,000 views, they were eligible to participate in a daily live show aired between December 5, 2015, until January 7, 2016. During each episode's broadcast, viewers could distribute their 100 "Decibel points" to the singers they liked the most on each show.

The top eight singers accumulating the most 'Decibel points' after January 7 moved on to the Sing-off. During each night's broadcast until January 15, two random singers had to sing one song each, with a total of three songs throughout the eight shows. 10,000 viewers were be chosen at random. These viewers distributed their 100 "Decibel points" to determine the contestants placement in the sing-off as well as in the finale. The second week's shows that aired from January 16 until January 22 featured the singer's daily lives and their preparations up to the finale.

The finale aired January 23 and showcased the eight singers for the last time, each singing two songs (one chosen song and one hit song from previous seasons). In each round, 10,000 "Decibel points were distributed to random viewers eligible to cast their votes for the winner (viewers had to vote for three singers to be counted as a valid vote). The singer accumulating the most votes after two songs would win the right to take part in the competition as a Challenger on the third Challenge round.

Korean singer Kim Ji-Mun was named as the winner of I Am a Singer- Who Will Challenge.

Four of the six singers who were first-round singers (LaLa Hsu, Hwang Chi Yeul, Coco Lee and Hacken Lee) were exempt from this round, while the other two singers participated along with the ousted singers for a chance to enter the finals. The performance order was determined based on the contestant's status quo and their duration on the stage. The surviving non-first-round singers (Jeff Chang and Joey Yung) can choose the performance order for the night without balloting, the Challengers who failed their challenge (Su Yunying and Kim Ji Mun), could only choose whether they would perform first or second for the night, and the remaining six ousted singers through ballot.

The singers sang one song, and the three singers with the most votes qualified for the finals. Jeff Chang, Joey Yung and Lao Lang were the top three singers who received the highest number of votes and advanced to the finals.
