Beijing has sanctioned two young Chinese rappers, PG One and GAI, citing their bad behavior and nonconformity with the Communist Party's values. Both rappers became champions of “The Rap of China” – a reality show which helps underground rappers gain mainstream popularity. Sputnik presents the hottest 5 up-and-coming stars of Chinese hip-hop.
