HEY MY FELLOW HOPPERS LONG TIME NO SEE!!! It's been absolutely crazy for me! I'm in a new spot with a new place, with new family! But news is good. I'm sorry I haven't been around, but it's been a BUSY couple of months. But FINALLY I'M BACK!! so lets get started with an update. The last you saw me we talked about "She's Gone" by Jong Ilhoon, and SanE and Mad Clown's "Butterfly, " but there are several other comebacks I want to talk about.
Yoonmirae
Yoonmirae is one of my FAVORITE Korean artist in this hip hop or music history. If you follow my blogs you might can figure out who my biases are. (Tablo, Top, Tiger Jk, Yoonmirae) each one of them have their own lane, but this woman just fits in mine. I love her so much she's a great singer, rapper, and even mom. I mean it can't be that bad being married to this......
Anyway, Yoonmirae has come up with several new singles in the past couple of months....and her new album "Gemini 2 " is one of my new favorites of the year !!
The album has some MAD features with people like my boy Junoflo ya'll know I love me some Juno. Double K , Tiger Jk, And Champagne are just to name a few more. But with a name and the Bad A$$ ness that she has how can you expect any less.
Kawi Bawi Bo was her first comeback of the year and honestly it was exactly what I wanted from her. But if it's not for you don't worry because there is one the next one is where she took it to a whole new level. JUNOFLOOOOO
This song right here ya'll ... equals life LOL no but really it's just an all around catchy song. You should listen to it multiple times.... in a row.... for hours lol
That's it for this blog... I know it's kind of short but I hope your excited to see me with some more comebacks :D by ya'll
YOOOO it's everyone's favorite Hip Hop Bunny here at HAS. So I'm at you again with some Show Me The Money 6 thoughts. This post as you see on the title is Round 2. So I'm going to explain how it works and then I'm going to break down some of the artist and my thoughts and opinions. Just like last time I man not show videos or pics for all of them, to conserve space, but I will show ones of my favorite. There's going to be a lot of new faces in this round that I didn't talk about last round because they didn't air. But I do thinking that they deserve to be talked about. So bare with me, it's coming at you as fast as I can! Lets Get It!!!
How this round works.
Each contestant from the last round gets a chain like I said. So in this round each of them get 60 seconds to preform a rap. So the "producers" have a pass or fail button. If they like what they hear in the 60 second time, they pass if they don't they fail... simple right. Here's the catch. If the contestant has at LEAST ONE producer that pass him he moves on to round three, if not, bye bye to the contestant and or she puts his chain in the ring of fire.
They pass.
They Fail.
Spooky right?
now like I said above it only takes one judge to pass them. It's not a majority vote. If all fail you and one passes you then your on to the next round. I find this tricky cause most of the time it's the opposite. So now you know how it works lets get down to the performances shall we?
So the first one up is Penomeco. So it's brought up that Korean hip hop is all about the people you know and that Show Me the Money is just a place to network and use your connections. Now Penomeco is friends with Zico and has known him since they went to school in Japan. This kind of hurt my feelings again because of the fact that the same thing happens with Woo Taewoon. I'm not saying that networking doesn't exist, and I'm not saying that it's not "convenient" that Peno was here. But what I will say is in ROUND 1 Pencomeco wasn't even judged by Zico or Dean or any fellow members of FANXY CHILD. So the fact that he has haters just to me means that he's got someone that idolizes him enough to put him on a pedestal SO BYE HATERS BECAUSE HE FREAKING KILLS IT!!!! Murders the beat... BYE HATERS!!!
Next up was Junoflo. Okay so everyone knows that Junoflo killed it last season and a lot of people were unhappy that Hash Swan got him out. okay we get it. I wasn't expecting anything spectacular out of his performance because it's Junoflo. Like he's so talented. So I expected him to pass. BUT YA'LLLLLLLL IF HE DIDN'T COME OUT AND SLAY.... OMG...my world was shook. I said to myself that night IF HE DON'T COME OUT HERE AND FREAKING WORK THIS STAGE YA'LL!!!! came out and was like LET ME PLAY WITH THIS BEAT A LITTLE BIT... omg he was one of my favorites this round and it was the only beginning.
Up next is someone we didn't see in round 1 and I'm disappointed. Not because he wasn't good but because he was FANTASTIC. It through me off guard. I was like WOOO WHY YOU SNEAKING up on everyone like that. You got to give it to me easy you can't just pop out of the blue and be like BAM I'M HERE SNITCHES!!!! his name... Black Nine and ya'll he's become one of the faves. I know I say this a lot but the boy just ... omg ... like I don't even know what to say. His performance had a little of an old school feel and I like that in new rappers.
So next was Na Sang Wook he was one from the US. I had high hopes for him and in the beginning he did so good...lived up to my expectations. BUT!!! he forgot his lyrics whaa whaaa... and rip he was the first one to fail and leave the competition. A lot of US contestants failed quickly afterwords which they a lot of the times do. I don't fee like it's cause they don't have the talent. I feel like a lot of them their Korean just isn't up to par so they get knocked out quicker. And that's all fine I mean it is a Korean show so.
Next is P-Type. We didn't see him in round one either BUT we did see him Show me the Money season 4. I know him for his Haterish thoughts of the show. P-Type is someone who is a "role model" to a lot of KHop people. He has been around for a while. I won't tell you what he said about the show because I'm just lazy if you want to know what he said go watch it LOL. Anyway! In SMTM 4 he lost in round 2 and was voted out. But this round he didn't do that bad, and honestly I was a little shocked. I usually don't like his "style" of rap, but I had respect for him a little after this round.
Ignito is next. "Demon King" okay so I have never heard of this 1st Generation rapper, but when I looked him up after this episode I will be looking him up more. He to me seems to be an AMAZING lyricists and I love rappers like this. Ignito is know for his dark lyrics that's why they call him the "Demon Rapper" or the "Rapper from Hell" I LOVED his old school flow and his lyrics really cool. This is why I love this show so much. I had never heard of this rapper before and now I have a WHOLE new genre of music to listen too!
(more about him in round 3 just wait for it)
Where the is a Devil there has to be an Angel right? Enter Kebee! So here is another one that wasn't in the first round but showed up in this one. He is said to be the opposite of Ignito in every way. Kebee is the CEO of former Soul Company. Where have you heard that name? Oh just from people like Mad Clown and The Quiett. Unfortunately this is all you will see of Kebee in this show because he fell due to forgetting his lyrics.
The next artist I'd like to talk about I talk about a lot in the first round. I didn't know who he was and I don't think anyone else did either. But this boy has legit changed my views on Korean Hip Hop. I don't even know what to say except.....wow... His lyrics "I've heard life was beautiful, but I'm struggling to breath in Hell" you can't say doesn't make you feel some type of way. This artist has become my favorite out of the whole competition Woo Won Jae.... now do I think he can win it? ...IDK but ... if he does.....ya'll ... I will lose all my marbles... like ... I'm behind him 100% right now ... he's my choice hands down.
So next on the list is Trudey Winner of Unpretty Rapstar... honestly I thought she was terrible but Zico and Dean held out. Zico says she can do better.... we will see in round three.
KIllagramz okay so I love the beat he chose honestly. But to me he was he kinda lacked in the lyrics aspect of it.
Absint and rek form the USA are gone. which is okay I wasn't that keen on either one of them.
With all that Manaic from Uptown is in the mix (you don't really see much of him in round 1 just a picture of his face) he did this Busta Rymes type double time that was pretty cool. I liked his deep raspy style voice he has.
We can't forget about the young one though.. It's my Boy i thought he did really well in this round ... and he really did look a mini Dok2 lol I don't know if that's a good thing though....
Digiri is up next and WOO I don't know what he is smoking but he was AWFUL like ... so bad... I hope Tiger JK knows what he's doing.
So Nucksal is next on the list.... honestly I was a little disappointed, because he did his own song. But he did kill it and you can really tell his lvl of talent is different then a lot of the others. Kinda of like watching a NFL vs College football.. same thing but different.
Young B went next Killed it ... there is a reason he was HSR winner.
My boy No:EL was up after him. more negative comments. I liked him in the first round. But he let it get to him I believe and forgot his lyrics and it was bye bye No:el
Although I didn't talk about this artist in the first round he was there. Hangzoo part of Boi B's group, did very well in this round. it turns out that he actually is sick.... He is actually blind in one eye ... was a sad story but he made it ... so that's cool.
So I said this my last post but I'm so happy that Sleepy is here. I don't think he'll get past this round but a lot of people don't know that he is a raper or that he was apart of Jiggy Fellaz or Untouchable. So I really want people to see him for the raper he is.... All that being said.
He Killed IT YA'LL. I LOVE HIM lol I always have and I always will. I just wish people would see him a lot more then they do. Maybe this will help that :D
Okay so that ends it for Round 2 guys stick around next week cause it's round 3 and you know what that means (for the people who watch it)........THIS....MEANS....WAR....that's all I will say :D see ya'll next week ;)
Hey yo it's everyone's favorite Hip Hop Bunny here. I'm coming at you with my thoughts about one of my FAVORITE Korean Tv shows. SHOW ME THE MONEY . For those of you who don't read my portion of the blog (you should) I've been talking about doing this for WEEKS and again I'm so sorry about not getting too it sooner. I will say this SPOILER ALERT. If you have not seen this show yet and you want too, I may give info that shows the outcome. BUT I'm lets just jump right into it shall.
SHOW ME THE MONEY SEASON 6 ROUND 1 LETS GO!!!
So round one (Preliminaries) is basically just the audition. They brake everyone into different pods and one "producer" from each group judges a pod. If you get a chain. One sort of like the above picture. I mean whats hip hop with out 2 chains and rollies (horrible dok2 reference)
Anyway before I get into a "I LOVE DOK2 SO MUCH" rant back to the post at hand. So basically you are judged on different things like what a lot of hip hop fanatics call "flow" (or what I like to call your sound sometimes) what big time officianodoes ( I don't think that's a real word but OH WELL SHOOT ME) like to describe it as "how many syllables you brake your rap up into the beat. To me flow is kind of the way songs move along. Your sound. The way your voice "flows" with the beat. Punchlines are a given. The better the lyrics the more likely you get a chain. And just like every other music or talent competition, the producers look for what makes you different from the rest.
What I find crazy about this season is the fight between 1st gen. rappers and newbies. With the addition of Tiger JK (that my boo!!!) it seemed like a lot of Old School people came to play.
People like Onesun and Mc Hansai came out to audition (links below to their songs I'm just going to link them to save space.). It's that way around the world though when you think about it the old school people who opened doors for the young ones have something to prove. They are still relevant. They are still in the industry that they help build. Sadly most of the 1st generations were eliminated.... What were you thinking Dean. Honestly I was really shocked when he passed on Mc Hansi. But Dean definitely earned the nickname 1st gen. killer. When Dean explains himself I see why he eliminated them. He wanted them to be seen as rappers not as legends that can't be touched and I respect him for that. He wanted them to be judged fairly, so with that you have to understand, the 1st gen rappers knew what there were getting into before they came in. BUT one brings it in for the Old timers.....My second favorite of the old schoolers.... DIGILI I actually had never heard of him like I had already heard of Mc Hansai, but I was impressed and I see why he made it.
I was also really surprised at the uprising of the little guys..... and by that I mean they had A LOT of like elementary kids audition. But there was one that had the confidence and really crushed it.
his name ....jun woochan and I'm loving it not even gonna lie.
With the young ones they have high schoolers as well such as Young B. Who I thought could have done a little better. But I was more impressed with NO:EL. You may remember him from the show "School Rapper." (where due to his past he chose to quit and reflect on himself. But he's back and to make up for his what he calls "immaturity" One person in the show even goes as far to say that a battle between NO:EL and Young B is going to be an epic battle, one to rival Blacknut and Song Mino. I personally am a fan more of NO:EL then Young B. I have nothing against Young B. I just prefer No:el's style. It takes a lot to admit you are wrong in any situation and it takes even bigger courage to try again after failing. So I'm Totally #TeamNoel.
If you watched this round already you know we had a lot of well known people come to this season... like ... PUNCHELLO yea!! ya'lll he's back... and I'm so excited. BigOne made it this round as well. I haven't talked about him a lot but BigOne is from VMC (artust like Deepflow, Don Mills, Nucksal) remember them? yea BigOne made it. Boi B and Geegooin came back this season and I was SHOCKED when Geegooin forgot his lyrics OMG.
Before this I had a real harsh view of returning contestants. I personally feel like these type of shows should be left for the people who have never had a chance. But this season has some good match ups of returning people...
HASH SWAN IS BACK. If you watched the upset of Hash Swan in season 5 you know that Hash Swan leaving hurt a lot of people.... But wait there's more... you thought Hash was the only one... JUNFLO is back ....yaaazzzz I expect a lot from these two gentlemen. Not gonna lie Junflo's choke this round scared me .... almost thought he was out for the count.
But here's where it gets a little .... too much for me. I've talked about both of these next two gentlemen before in previous post. Nucksal and Double K showed up to audition for this season. Now if you any of my post before this you know that I'm a HUGE Double K fan. Nucksal is also a fav. of mine and was nominated recently for hip hop album of the year. Although I was happy to see Double K, he one the first ever Show Me the Money. So the question I ask myself first is "Why is he doing it again? He made it through this competition once why is he torturing himself?" BUT THEN HE HIT US WITH THE BARS YA'LL.... THE BARS.... AND IT WAS OVER WITH....R.I.P. TO ALL THE OTHERS IN THE ROOM... DOUBLE K JUST SPIT ON ALL OF YA'LL...I'm with Tiger JK he is going to win this season too. The battle between these two is gonna be so good I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. So the point I make is. I'm a little on the fence about returns and already famous on this show. BUT and that's a capital "but" because I feel like both of these two have something to prove. Not gonna lie though TEAM DOUBLE K ALL THE WAY!!!!
There were some new faces to me though. One that really stole my heart Woo Wonjae this guy ya'll put his heart on the stage. To me ... in my OPINION that's what music be it whatever kind you listen too. It's about expressing yourself. and this guy ya'll... made me cry. I'm gonna post the video but if your not Korean you may need to find the subtitles.
Another one I don't know well (I've heard of him but he doesn't seem to be as big as some) PENOMECO. This guy caught me off guard. I was like WHO IS THIS DUDE.
These two are definitely going to keep an eye them :) you should too in the rounds to come.
I know "this chick is crazy with these long posts" BUT... THERE'S MORE.... you getting sleepy...oh well let me introduce you to my friend.... SLEEEPPPY
YA'LL ...fans of HAS.... when I saw Sleepy for the first time on this episode... I thought I was going to literally have a heart attack.... Below is a link to the post I've already done on Sleepy. But I'm SO PROUD OF HIM SHOWING UP AGAIN!!!!! YA'LL I love Sleepy so much. I do feel like people see him more as sleepy the comedian and not Sleepy the rapper and he's SUCH a good one. I feel like he has something to prove and I hope that he takes it real far... GO SLEEPY I'M BEHIND YOU!!!! http://www.hasheartandseoul.com/search?q=sleepy
All of this excitement was just in Korea... I haven't even touched the USA auditions yet....
I was little disappointed at first that there wasn't a huge segment on the USA auditions because honestly that's what I was most interested in this season. But we had a pretty good turn out.. Absint and No SangWook ( I probably spelled that wrong, but we are going to go with it) from NYC. then there was Reksitzzy and Los from LA. I prefer Los over Reksitzzy... Rek seemed kind of ...egotistical where as Los is out there trying to survive... but yall.... I found her... I've been talking about this girl for months to friends... and she came on to show me the money... so I'd like to introduce you to my idol.... Lee HeeSun
(favorite)
I know I know get back to the post Bunny. This girl (correction woman) ya'll right before I started watching the show. I was like OBSESSED with her. And when I saw her.... R.i.p ... I cried ya'll. I'm so happy and I prey and hop she makes it, because honestly if she don't Imma be pissed lol. But I'll still support her no matter what and ya'll should too.
like for real just go youtube her.... do it.... you know you want to... do it now...
So I know what you're thinking ... when is she going to be done... WELL I'M DONE NOW... this is round one. I hope I didn't give a way spoilers, and I hope you go and watch it yourself. :D
DRUM ROLL PLEASE !!!!!!!!! DUMDUMDUDMDUDMDUMDUDM ....... (I don't know what that is)
Superbee
Here's another one of my Show Me the Money finds. I liked him then and he still comes out with some great hits. He produces a lot of stuff too. He may not be in the public eye as much as some of the others, but when he comes out with a ft. or a single I'm always watching.
He's been on a lot of rap shows competitions and he's gotten pretty far on all of them but never really made it big I don't think. A lot of people when I say his name don't know who he is.
But his Features are really really good as well.
AYYYEEEE it's RAVI... I was fan girling for a minute. But yea Superbee is definitely one person to have on your radar for when he comes out with new stuff. :D
Tomorrow is an artist you may know, but not one you may know can spit.
It's Day 7!!!!!! and you'll be in HEAVEN!!! Bunny has bars. Hahaha just kidding. Without further anticipation. INTRODUCING .......
DOUBLE K!!!!
Double K is a semi underground rapper. He is starting to grow more and more fame and with his release of OMG is how I really found out about him. He's actually been in the industry for a long time, but hasn't really made it main stream, and there isn't a lot of information on him out there. He's been nominated for several awards, but sadly hasn't won any of them yet that I know of. I thought that some of you guys might not know who he is, and he's pretty hot. Double K got his name from his underground name Killa K (get it Double K.) He's actually growing on me and I like a lot of his features so I'm kinda hoping that he sticks around where I can see more of him.
My favorite song by him is OMG ft Seo In Guk and Dok2
Stick around for day 8 to see who we got next on our sexy list of HOPPING love.
