Singing certain songs at a karaoke bar could endanger national unity, territorial integrity and will be banned, the Chinese government has said.

Interim regulations coming into effect from October 1 says the government will create a “blacklist” for karaoke songs and will ban them.

“China will create a blacklist for karaoke songs, banning those that contain harmful content at karaoke venues across the country,” the Chinese culture and tourism ministry announced.

The banned song list will also include songs that are against the country’s religious policies and spread thoughts about cults and superstitions.

On the list are songs containing content that endangers national unity, sovereignty, or territorial integrity; violates China’s religious policies and spreads cults and superstitions; and advocates obscenity, gambling, violence and drug-related crimes or instigating crimes,” according to a set of interim regulations issued by the ministry.

The regulations will take effect on October 1, 2021. The banned songs’ list is yet to be released.

Officially, China has nearly 50,000 entertainment venues such as karaoke bars, which have a basic music library of over 100,000 songs, the Xinhua report said.
