Get ready for International Hip-hop Culture Festival
    2017-February-16  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

    International hip-hop dancers, DJs, rappers and graffiti artists will gather in Shenzhen in March for the Fifth International Hip-hop Culture Festival.

    A series of events including a rap contest and a DJ contest will be held. The Listen Up Rap Performance Contest will be held in five cities: Beijing, Taipei, Kunming, Shanghai and Shenzhen before the final competition scheduled for March 26 in Shenzhen. Winners of the regionals will get a 4,000 yuan cash prize and the winner of the final will get a 30,000 yuan cash award.

    The festival is being organized by Hip-Hop Fusion, a Shenzhen-based company founded by Li Haiqin, a veteran Chinese hip-hop culture promoter. In his mid-30s, Li, a Shenzhen native, once worked at a State-owned company. But his life changed after traveling to more than 10 cities - from Shenzhen to Beijing - in 2006.

    “During my eight-month journey, I made lots of friends, who were passionate about hip-hop and were determined to achieve their dreams.”

    After returning to Shenzhen, Li quit his job and devoted himself to promoting hip-hop in China. “The good thing is that even without record deals and profits, Chinese rappers are passionate about music.”
