A rundown of "underground hip-hop in Shanghai"

Neocha's Sean Leow drops knowledge on asiascoutnetwork.com: "[T]here is a scene of more pure or underground hip-hop in Shanghai that stays true to the original style and sound of hip-hop, which was started in the Bronx during the 1970s. Additionally, there is a related genre of what can be called Chinese hip-hop ('嘻哈' in Chinese) which exists in between and overlaps with both the commercial 'pop-rap' and underground hip-hop genres."
