Rhythm + Flow

I love shows like this and having TI, Chance and Cardi as rappers is a perfect mix. Chance is straight no chaser, Cardi gets her little slick comments in to soften the tone and TI is about his Biz! I am hooked and although I hated the fact that the full season was released, I also secretly love it. I would have finished it in one full day if they had. I'm so hype to see who wins this cuz we have some good talent here. The videos were dope!

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!

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.

I really like the show, the progression of the different contestants was interesting and often very emotional and true to them. I think Chance and TI were great, but Cardi comes across to me as just speaking anything that comes out of her brain without any thought whatsoever. 'De do de de de de blabattaaas blat I like ur song. I wants ta had sex to dat.' Totally nonsensical, I understand maybe she's speaking a vernacular that maybe popular with the youth of today but honestly to everybody else she comes across as a complete moron. put someone up there that can actually add to the conversation about the talent of the people and not just a bunch of random things that really mean nothing to anyone. People clap on clap on clap but she said nothing time and time again. The input from TI and Chance was.trult constructive though. Good show overall.
