Show Me The Money Ep.5 (My opinion and views on the episode)
[I am just telling my opinion and if I criticize any rapper/contestant it's my own opinion. I am not a professional producer or rapper but I am only telling my opinion from my own pinpoint of view as a viewer]
[Also, I am talking about everything in the exact time order it came in the show]
So I have talked before about my views on episode 1 and 2. I just felt like talking about episode 5 too. So before staring to talk about the actual episode I will just talk about the teams briefly. Team YG seems to be having he strongest competition from the eyes of the viewers with Jidam, Olltii, Snacky Chan, and B.I ... But for me I am not really looking up for Jidam and B.I since they both messed up their lyrics on the 1 vs 1 battle not to mention that Jidam cut off her contestants.
So to the actual episode Brand New team did well in their performance but they were lacking a little bit... I was looking up for Vasco but he didn't rap that much... Janggoon didn't do any better to their performance by trying to distract (?) the other contestant... I like his rap style but if he is taking the competition to this level then I guess he deserves the elimination he got... He should've controlled himself.
Team YG did really well... Especially that they were in front of people from YG which means that they were a bit nervous... (Expect for B.I since he is used to performing in front of them like in WIN)... Their choice wasn't the best, I guess they were really not thoughtful about their decision to eliminate Snacky Chan since I think he is the one of the rappers who are really relaxed when they rap... In my opinion I think Jidam should have been eliminated instead of Snacky Chan. In this way I think Jidam will be next to be eliminated if she doesn't improve her stage presence and her lyrics since they seem to be weak not to mention that her lyrics in two of her performances were written by her mentor/teacher.
YDG's team performance wasn't aired (like as a group performance)... So I think I don't have any comment about that.
1llionaire team is the coolest team until now well the people in that team are all comfortable with each other! Dok2 and The Quiett are really comfortable with the contestants too and had fun! Dok2 also took a picture if Chamain's smile like he said he will do XDD Their decision to eliminate that guy was wise too since In my opinion too I think he doesn't really have a unique style to his rap. Bobby seems to really fit 1llionaire's style that I think he should join them or just release a mixtape with them or something.
Coming to the solo performances, I expected a lot more rom Vasco. He does grab attention and all but In my own opinion I think calm rap suits him more, the rock feel he added didn't appeal to me. I know change is good but loud rap or just shouting in rap doesn't suit his rap.
Once I saw Jidam's performance I was really sure that she will be eliminated after Snacky Chan. She forgot her lyrics and she wasn't able to grab the attention. Even though I wasn't expecting much from her I didn't expect her to perform like this...
Toy and Chamain have messed up I think according to the looks the judges were having but since their performances weren't aired we can't really tell what happened...
I am not that of a fan of C-Jamm so if you were to ask me if prefer him or Giriboy I will totally choose Giriboy since I like his rap! But this time I would totally choose C-Jamm. His performance was way better than Giriboy's this time... Swings and San E seemed to think the same too. Maybe that was because Giriboy joined YDG... But I really expected more from Giriboy. His performance lacked the fun his performances have always had and the hook didn't really have feel into it...
Bobby did really well and totally had that 1llionaire vibe around him! Well the judges seemed very impressed with his performance!
And the event which was probably the highlight of this episode the 'diss' that Olltii said against YG and WIN... Well first let me just say that I liked his performance I am not saying that out of bias though! He can do better but compared to his teammates his performance was much better! B.I messing up in his lyrics just left me thinking that he may be eliminated after Jidam if he doesn't improve! I know memorizing lyrics isn't easy but he should just improve his ability... I mean if he keeps making mistakes like this it will be a big obstacle for him despite him having charisma and an impressive stage presence. But after Team YG eliminated Snacky Chan I became really confused on what they are having in thought when they eliminate someone...
Coming the dissing, as expected many people are hating on Olltii now. I expected dissing to happen in the show after all it's a rapping show! As many said Olltii's diss wasn't that clever and as I said he can do better than this but as a whole his performance was nice. I am not trying to offend anyone but most of the ones who said Olltii's diss was mean they are probably mere kpop fans who are really talking from a biased way. In fact this isn't the first time someone aims a diss against WIN, there was this rapper before that talked about WIN in one of his tracks I just don't want to mention names. Olltii's diss was sudden and not that 'clever' but he doesn't deserve all this hate. If Olltii's diss was lame then B.I's diss was even lamer. It wasn't lame to use his companies name that they are rich it was lame that he only had that as a defense against the diss. I know he has all the right to show off that he is under a company which is rich but it wasn't clever to use it as a defense since it's weak. He should have talked about him having talent or being to join YG... Not talk about money. I know he talks about being a better rapper but he should have given it more emphasis.
Many people would get me wrong since they may think that I am too biased when I talked like this so I am saying this, I am a fan of WIN and I am a big fan of both Team B and TeM A but I still find B.I to be lacking in this show. Not only in his performance in this episode but by all his performances. The best performance he did in the show was the solo performance in episode 2. He can do better so I am hoping he improves or else he will be eliminated.
Iron did really good and his rapping style didn't change so that's great!
When I saw the rankings according to the audience votes I was totally shocked. Wait, what? B.I placed 2nd?! I like him and I like his performance back in WIN days... But sorry he doesn't deserve 2nd... Sorry to all the fans but placing second is just no. No offense.
Bobby deserves a higher ranking! I didn't expect myself to even say this but I think B.I popularity helped in him gaining a high ranking. But Giriboy is popular but was really placed low... One thing I am sure of is that the audience weren't at all honest with their votes. Some rappers deserved higher rankings... Well I am glad that C-Jamm, Olltii, Iron, and Bobby had a good ranking because I could have really gone frustrated if they were placed low despite their really good performances!
Once again I am saying if anyone is actually reading this, I am not biased toward anyone! I am just stating my opinion on everyone's performance!
And just to clear everything out, I know that Olltii was out from Kpop Star before. Some people are saying that he dissed B.I and Bobby out of jealousy which is totally nonsense.
