Kunming Hiphop

By in Features on

It doesn't take much time walking around Kunming to see that young locals are into hiphop culture: elaborate graffiti tags, murals paying homage to Biggie Smalls and Tupac Shakur, baggy trousers and NBA jerseys, even a growing breakdancing/b-boy scene.

But are any of them actually making hiphop?

The MC known as Jumpfish, one of about 10 active MCs in the Kunming area, has cut his first single with Kunming-based American MC Mike Wind. The track, "Upwind Jumpoff", was produced and mixed by Kris Ariel. Click here to download.

Word is there is another collaboration between the two MCs coming in the near future, we'll keep you posted.
