'First generation' rapper Oneson started a YouTube series where he commentates on 'Show Me the Money' episodes, and fans of the show have found it a refreshing take for his harsh and critical words against the contestants regardless of their celebrity status.
1. [+510, -9] Honestly, Korean hip hop is such a joke. Just full of rappers who can't write one lyric without mentioning money, women, or a swear. These are the same kids who grew up eating three warm meals a day and a full education up to high school, and yet their lyrics are so full of unnecessary gangster rage.
2. [+168, -2] Hip hop just isn't cool anymore 😎
3. [+130, -2] Hip hop nowadays is just a bunch of word play from people acting like middle school tryhards
4. [+88, -9] Rap originated from rebelling against and criticizing society. You can't even hear what Korean rappers are saying most of the time. And what's funny to me is that the show doesn't even get 1% in viewer ratings but their songs are always all over the charts.
5. [+53, -3] He's such a man
6. [+29, -0] These rappers claim that they want to share their life story through their raps but then you can never hear what they're even saying because their rap delivery is terrible. I love first generation rappers because a lot of their lyrics feel like an honest glimpse into another life and even console me in my own times of need. That's what hip hop is supposed to be to me.
7. [+26, -1] The show's just full of kids who don't even know the basics of rap and are just there to 'sing rap' or use gimmicks ã…‹ and if they make it far enough, they start using sob stories like "I'm sorry, mom" ã…‹ã…‹ even the producers are only on the show to sell their own music
8. [+17, -0] I liked it when the show used to be a platform for talented people like Kim Haon to share a meaningful message. Now it's just a mess from the judges all the way to the contestants.
9. [+11, -0] The producers of 'SMTM 10' need to take a long, hard look at why viewers are going so crazy over Oneson's review videos. The season was so, so bad and Oneson tells you precisely why.
10. [+6, -0] I agree with him when he says that good writing is what makes good rap
