Hainan province was severely impacted by the powerful Super Typhoon Yagi which made landfall in Hainan Island on Sept 6. In this land craving warmth and strength after the natural disaster, an international rap sensation, Ye, brought forth a musical feast that seemed to pierce through the clouds like a ray of sunlight, illuminating every inch of the terrain, said Haikou resident Xiao Kedong.

"I am honored to have witnessed his two listening events. In his debut performance on Sept 15, his sincerity and dedication deeply moved everyone present. Without a hint of airs, he passionately sang for over two hours, delivering the charm and warmth of music to every soul yearning for solace. Even when parched, he hastily drank two bottles of water handed to him by staff, then immersed himself wholeheartedly back into the world of music," Xiao said.

"Ye's second performance was truly awe-inspiring. He maintained his punctuality, constructing a bridge transcending borders with music. In his voice, I could almost see the essence of music without boundaries and feel that genuine emotion crossing nations," he added.
