“Do you have a freestyle?” That’s a buzz word in China recently. It’s all because of hip-hop.
It first started in New York and South America. It was not always about music. It also represents a culture and attitude.
Actually hip-hop has never gone mainstream in China. But this situation is likely to be changed by a rap competition program called The Rap of China. It is a popular on-line reality show, which has four celebrity producers tasked with guiding and training the young competing rappers. It has enjoyed hundreds of millions of views since it was on, and the show has quickly helped these competitors rise to stardom.
Chen Wei, a producer of the activity, said, “We think hip-hop has become a major player in Chinese music circles. So we’re ready to give it a bit of push and let Asia and the world know that we have got hip-hop on the rise in China. And we did it!”
Now more and more people start to rap as a way to express themselves, especially their individuality and identity. They are fresh blood piped into the Chinese vibe. In China, hip-hop culture is an icon of new fashion. Let’s go get it and enjoy it to the full!
“你有freestyle吗？”可是当下的“热词”，都是因为 hip-hop文化。hip-hop发源于纽约和南美洲，这并不总是与音乐有关，它也代表一种文化和态度。 实际上，hip-hop 在中国从未成为主流。但这种情况很可能会被称为“中国有嘻哈”的节目所改变。这是一个受欢迎的 on-line 真人秀， 其中有四名明星制片人。他们的任务是指导和培训年轻的参赛说唱歌手。自比赛开始以来，亿万观众分享自己的观点，参赛者也很快成为明星。本活动制片人陈伟说，“hip-hop 已经成为中国音乐界的主要参与者。”因此, 我们准备给它一点推动, 让亚洲和世界知道, 我们的 hip-hop正在崛起。”越来越多的人开始用说唱表达自我。在中国，hip-hop 文化是新时尚的标志。
