Ritmo + 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.

Contrary to what some reviews say, I'm not into hip-hop and rap but I enjoyed the show a lot. It can benefit from one improvement next season - replacing Cardi B with a female rapper who actually has something to say. Cardi is a waste of judge chair. Not only was I disappointed in her, but I felt that casting her did a disservice to female rappers who can articulate their opinion and contribute with valuable critique. I see the attempt to increase viewership by inviting her, but she brought nothing to the table.

Finally they dare to reinvent the format of the music contest and to make it about hip hop!! So refreshing, hats off Netflix! Might not be up to the taste of the The Voice crowd, but damn, just watched the finale and what a journey! It was so fun to watch contestants take up different challenges, outgrow themselves, and be tested on all aspects that make an individual become a a bigger artist. I personally laughed a lot with Cardi B's bubbly personality, she knows what it takes to be successful commercially. T.I, Chance and Cardi all brought interesting angles to the jugging. Looking forward to season two!

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

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