'Show Me The Money' is a hiphop- survival audition program that is held in Mnet. Season 1 was held last year, which can be abbreviated as 'half-success'. There were lots of miscommunication between hiphop artists and the directors of Show Me the Money.
With that, season 2 started, and as a lover of hip-hip music, I hoped that the program has advanced, and it did! The line-ups of musicians had better quality, and there were more investments on the program itself.
However, I did felt something uncomfortable in the program.
In the show, a rapper named Swings participated in the audition. Swings, is actually a pro- rapper, and he is one of the most skillful rapper in Korea. Because of it, it was questionable enough to ask him 'why did you participate in this program?'. In the interview, he replied that he wanted to start from the basic, and be re- evaluated without his name value. However, during the program, that was ironic, since his lyrics and attitudes toward other competitors seemed to be bragging about what he has done in the past. Instead of being modest, he was arrogant about himself, and did not try to cooperate with other rappers, and rather ignored them.
After watching the program, I began to wonder how Swings will change his attitude.
