They blend unique linguistic skills with a modern day rap influence they can only obtain via illegal online methods.
"Listening to rap music, or music from outside of China is a bit difficult in China, we have less resources due to the Chinese firewall. The real famous artists you definitely hear about, but the less known but still dope rappers are harder to hear about."
With a strong underground following in China, they broke onto the online viral scene with tracks like “Black Cab” and “BDKMD”.
Higher Brothers are notable as a high-profile rap group that has managed to avoid Chinese government censorship while still appealing to Western audiences, making this the first Chinese rap act to garner international success.

Higher Brothers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm shining like star
Me and my squad
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
感觉跟我特别熟
兑了杯purple juice
换了好几叠金库
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
他们说我们并不能够成功
哼 去年我也跟你想的一样
把失败当成长后我变的特别凶
走在日落大道我像只霸王龙
头上没皇冠但feel like King
有黑娃homie 对我表达了肯定
有too much money 在等着我win
我逛到哪 毁灭哪 不停的 shooting你
Ollie Uncle he is a plug
Moving着fire的beat送给higher的兄弟些
My life is so beautiful
But she say I don't know what I'm talking about
白天shopping晚上working higher gang的队伍
原装进口商品可以堆满整个别墅
赚的越多压的越大一把推到all in
我什么时候wake up 就什么时候good morning
Run it up, pipe it up
Fly shit fuck it up
发现她 看到她
找到她 搞定她
Run it up, pipe it up
Fly shit fuck it up
发现她 看到她
找到她 搞定她
I came with the guap
I'm shining like star
Me and my squad
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
Bangkok, Tokyo我们住在five star hotel
走在路上都想take a photo
皮包外面必须巨大的logo
Whiskey, Hennessy 开了瓶的香槟摆到隔壁卡座从来不会带走
盲目的跟风不是我的type shit
我在San Francisco 用天赋疯一兑换dollar
好了好了好了好了 everybody knows 再看看带满icy ring 的手
Nice 新的flow 就像magic power向前不倒弯儿一天两首rush hour
周围Shawty bad pretty
Work, work, work 就像Drake 和 Riri
掀起了新一轮revolution
纽约downtown刷卡疯狂bustdown
Everything 我们没什么不能
I got a job we keep 100 位置也始终 在top
China young moolah thug life 就像2pac
I came with the guap
I'm shining like star
Me and my squad
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
Stay at the top
Came in I'm whippin that dough
I put that coke on her butt
I pull that lambo you know
Rockin that Balenciaga I'm drippin designer
Look at my diamonds I'm drippin designer
All of my diamonds you know they be shinin'
Look at the diamonds we're Benihana
Whippin it up like Hibachi
All of the diamonds they're shopping
She gonna suck me all sloppy
All of my team on top
I might just bust out the Rollie
I might just kill like Chernobyl
I might shoot shots like Ginobili
I might just ball like Kobe
I might just trap at the stove
All of my diamonds they froze
Whippin that pot on the stove
Walk in the kitchen I'm drippin designer
Got Gucci Valencios
I got Balenciaga
Black and white diamonds like Oreo
I came with the guap
I'm shining like star
Me and my squad
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
We stay on the top
