"Doctors treat patients, policemen maintain social order, and for us, we communicate with our music," Li says.

"We rap about the way we look at the world and what we think."

Li adds that he has never been to Wuhan, but because of the outbreak, he, like many, follows the news and cares deeply about the city and its people.

"People are positive and try their best to make their lives better. They are finding ways to keep themselves busy within the confines of their homes," Li says.

"Everyone is trying hard to get through this unusual and difficult situation."

With an average age of 25, the group, consisting of Li, Wang and Luo Jinhui, has released a dozen songs since it was founded in 2015.

Wang, who graduated from Sichuan University of Media and Communications, had the idea of forming the rap group with like-minded friends.
