"The Rap of China" 2020 Cypher is Here
Anticipation for the next season of iQIYI’s hit variety show The Rap of China is heating up, with the release of a star-studded cypher, entitled “RAPSTAR.”
The cypher features the four celebrity judges set to appear on the show, “Young OG” Kris Wu, controversial past winner GAI, pop singer Jane Zhang and old-school Mandopop performer Will Pan, as well as guest mentor and K-pop star Jay Park, with the latter making a surprise turn, rapping in Mandarin Chinese (see the video below).
Jane Zhang joins the show for the first time, replacing Chinese pop star G.E.M. as the sole female judge, while GAI takes the reigns from Taiwanese duo MC Hotdog and Zhang Zhenyue.
The song itself is underwhelming. The stand-out performance comes from Chongqing rapper GAI, who was crowned co-champion with PG One in the show’s landmark first season.
