The headlines surrounding China’s big meetings in Beijing this week may have been grabbed by a slight rewording of the constitution, but thankfully Party mouthpiece People’s Daily has taken it upon itself to explain to you “why the ‘two sessions’ matter”.
Naturally, at a time when hip-hop doesn’t exactly seem to be welcomed in the country, it’s chosen to do so via the medium of rap.
It’s been a minute since we brought you a “red rap” but if you’re aching for more, you’ll be pleased to know that the publication took a break from striving to get the #BrilliantTwoSessions hashtag trending on Twitter to deliver a #TwoSessionsRap:
#TwoSessionsRap: #China's #TwoSessions has increasingly caught young people's attention. People's Daily Online has produced a #rap about the Two Sessions that has gone viral on Chinese social media. Watch this video to find out more, and enjoy the #rap. pic.twitter.com/VyEWtz1teM
