Quyi is a kind of folk rap art, such as drum writing, blackboard writing, storytelling, piano music, pingtan, cross talk and duet ... To put it bluntly, someone must say or sing, rap content must be able to completely describe events or portray characters, and the narrator must also have the identity of specific characters, which can be the first person, the third person or transformed from different people.

This is the essential difference between Quyi performance and singing, dancing and music. More precisely, gongs and drums should belong to percussion ensemble in folk music. There are many different gongs and drums in different places in China, with different scenes and forms, but they obviously do not have the elements of music art.
