<p><a href="https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/PG_One" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wang Hao 王昊</a>, aka PG One, one of China’s best-known rappers, who rose to fame this year on the hit show <em>The Rap of China</em>, issued an apology on January 4 after one of his old songs, “Christmas Eve,” was criticized for its dark lyrics.</p>
<p>The backlash started when some internet users complained on Weibo that the song contains “degrading and out of line” lyrics. The Communist Youth League made a <a href="https://weibo.com/3937348351/FCO4auXuV?from=page_1001063937348351_profile&wvr=6&mod=weibotime" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a> (in Chinese) on its official Weibo account to criticize the song for “encouraging teenagers to use drugs” and “insulting women.”</p>
