Nomadic hip-hop on show in Mongolian Bling - Australia Network News - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation): ""That's there, but there's also this incredible modern, contemporary, urban lifestyle that most of the Mongolians exist in."
The film took five years to make, and delves into the thriving music scene in Mongolia's capital, Ulaanbaatar.
It focuses in particular on three of the local hip hop stars, Gennie, Gee and Quiza.
"When we were doing the film, back in 2010, Gee was a bit more underground," he said.
"Now he's huge, Quiza's huge and Gennie's sort of up and coming, but they're all pretty big stars.
"Record sales aren't huge - Mongolia's a developing country and there's not a huge amount of wealth there - they're all popular and stars, but it's tricky for them to exist on that in terms of making a living as a rap artist or a hip-hop artist.""
