Rhythm + Flow

Watched this show from start to unfortunate finish. The 'winner' should not have been there at the end, let alone won the whole show. There was clearly some kind of bias towards the person that won. Another contestant in the final four had a horrible attitude and also should not have been there. Maybe having a judge that could have based their decisions on technical ability could have improved these biases that really ruined the show for us. Don't know if I'd watch another season based on the way this went down.

The challenges were interesting. We particularly liked the cypher and rap battle moments, and seeing guest judges come on the scene! Was nice to get other perspectives in those earlier episodes.

A lot of bad reviews for this show are from non hip-hop fans.

So Cardi B, Snoop Dogg, TI and Chance the rapper, are auditioning the next big Hip hop star. I feel what they are doing. Chance, Snoop and TI seem to be Dead honest in their criticism of those trying out. Cardi B though, I just don't see what she brings to the proceedings.

Those trying out vary in quality. But that is life right?

I think the celebrity judges were more fixated on superfical criteria to judge the contestants on than actual skill. Too many people got cut IMO that had real skill vs. the ones that just looked "right".

It's a good concept, I just wish it were a lot less focused on things that don't actually matter. I won't add any spoilers, you can see for yourself why I have my own pet peeves with the show. It's still on Netflix.

This show gained momentum from start to finish and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys rap, hip hop, RnB and entertainment in general. The finale was phenomenal
