Underground Chinese Hip Hop

Chinese Hip-Hop Underground is an insider documentary following the story of Weber - one of Mainland China s first rappers. Weber s uncanny musical talents allow him to spearhead the creation of Chinese rap music - a free form of creative self-expression that spreads like wildfire amongst those struggling the most; young working class students and grassroots migrants left out of the country s meteoric rise. Even while Weber s music electrifies China s youth and gains a huge following, he is challenged by enemies posing a threat to his musical existence: state censors, on the one hand, and armies of state-backed pop stars king to steal the name of hip-hop for their own gain, on the other. Can Weber and underground musicians like him survive this assault? Will Underground Chinese hip-hop survive? Written by Anonymous Underground Chinese Hip Hop is a 2011 Chinese-language Documentary Drama motion picture.
