Hip Hop Mega-Show This Saturday 11/24

[Charlie]

This upcoming Saturday Chengdu is hosting what will definitely be the biggest hip show in a very long time. This event isn’t really geared for foreigners per se, but if you’re interested in seeing how hip hop is developing in China, this is a landmark event for the entire region of Western China.

Rappers coming from Beijing, Guangzhou, Yunnan, and more places across China for this. It’s located in the East Music Park at a new spot that I haven’t been to but I know that 700 pre-sale tickets have been sold already. It’s very rare that live music events of this size happen in Chengdu at all. Here’s the Douban listing: ????x??????? link to buy tickets (60 in advance, 80 at the door).

That’s KidGod from Guangzhou, he’s pretty well known in the China hip hop circuit. A lot of these guys are, especially FatKit, J-Fever (??? in Chinese), DJ Edi, etc. Here’s a high resolution version of the flyer where you can read all of the text: Shengqi Flyer High-Resolution

My mistake Ray, I assumed you were just making a comment. I will see about getting an additional ticket for you, it shouldn’t be a problem.

I walked through the door to hear them calling me out on stage with no DJ present last night. But by the end it all worked out really well. The caliber of rappers in Chengdu has risen dramatically in recent years!!

Some photos, I will post more high-res photos on my blog:

haha, the joys of doing gigs in chengdu. I was told at 11pm yesterday that the hemp house forgot to rent decks.

It was a fun show and the biggest hip-hop event I’ve been to in Chengdu. The crowd seemed to get more hype for the home town CDC crew. Fat Shady looked like he got a lot of love and had a big group of fans waiting for autographs after the show.

It was a good show! It was nice to see real hiphop in China. Only bummer is that even in this show they played a version of gangnam style… Thanks for the ticket Charlie!
