Season chronology |
The third season of Show Me the Money (SMTM3), which aired in 2014, saw a huge change in production as prominent figures of the Korean hip-hop scene participated in the show. Over 3,000 people auditioned this season, 1.5 times the amount last season,[1] including underground rappers, non-Koreans, students, and previous SMTM contestants. The winner receives one hundred million won prize money, a record deal, and an opportunity to hold a special performance.
Notable contestants that did not make it to the Top 16 include ODEE of Vismajor, Beall, Changmo, Sapo, New Champ, Kang Chun-hyok (a North Korean rapper and artist), Tymee (E.via), Jolly V., Kisum, ult from Kinetic Flow, Born Kim, Kim Hyo-eun and Tarae.
The show, however, had been criticized for its editing by its producers and contestants.[2][unreliable source?] Despite this, songs from the show have successfully dominated music charts more than once.[3][4]
