US rapper Ye brings 'warmth, strength' to Haikou

Liu Qiming, 24, who traveled from Shanghai to Haikou just for the event, said that it resembled more of an ultimate art performance, ranging from the opening beast act, to the mid-show doppelganger, to the final exit embracing his daughter, manifesting a sacred and solemn experience deeply rooted in the nearly 20-year development history of global rap music.

"For me, each song was the most spectacular. Ye's concert delivered a profound impact not only in terms of music but also in his artistic expression, fashion, and aesthetics," he added.
