From the perspective of inheritance spectrum, the Yi people's four cavities have been circulating in Eshan for at least 200 years. The folk ballad "mixing sea vegetables, selling four cavities" is a testimony. Li Chenggang, the four -cavity inheritor of Eshan, has won the prize of the seventh and the eighth and the eighth China Western Folk Song (Flower) Song Club, the first prize of the "China Rural Cultural Tourism Festival and the first National Song Contest".

The four -cavity lyrics are rich in content, rigorous tone structure, and unique singing methods. The combination of true and false throats, the alternation of the leading singer and the gang is the most significant feature of the four cavity singing.
