Patchwork lineup in Rap Viet

Suboi entered the Breakthrough round of Rap Viet season 4 with a patchwork lineup similar to season 1. The only difference is that Suboi now has no one as groundbreaking as tlinh.

The lineup of Suboi had problems before the Confrontation round took place in Vietnamese Rap season 4. For some reason, Suboi could only choose 7 members. The show had to make an exception for Suboi by bringing Gnob to the team, thereby having 8 contestants divided into 4 pairs.

After the Confrontation round, Suboi lost the combative rapper Queen B. She brought in Coldzy, but this contestant is showing an unstable face at the show. Rap Viet season 4. The strength of the 6 members of Suboi's team entering the Breakthrough round is considered to be inferior to the other 3 coaches.

Suboi fades away

Suboi's return as a coach is expected to create breakthroughs for Rap Viet season 4. However, in the Confrontation round, Suboi's team's matches were dull and less attractive than the other colleagues. The main reason for this situation is that Suboi's contestants did not create enough attraction. Even Willistic, Suboi's hottest contestant, did not receive much attention.

Suboi fell into a similar situation as season one, when she gathered a team of low quality. 4 years ago, in Rap Viet season one, Suboi did not even use the yellow hat to increase her chances of winning contestants to her team. She threw her hat to Ricky Star and De Choat but was not chosen by the contestants.

In Rap Viet season 4, Suboi used her first choice privilege for Shayda. She continued to use the golden hat to bring Saabirose to her team. Snatching Saabirose was Suboi's achievement. But Suboi's move of using first choice to "ambush" contestant Shayda surprised everyone.

The contestant with the privilege of first choice must be the "warhorse" of the 4 coaches. Besides Shayda, the first choice also includes 7dnight, Manbo and Gill. After 2 rounds, 7dnight, Manbo and Gill showed their strength worthy of "warhorses", continuously creating highly influential performances.

Meanwhile, what Suboi achieved with Shayda was full of criticism.

After 2 rounds, Shayda still hasn’t convinced the audience that she came to the show to rap. Maybe Shayda hid her cards or her performance was true to her ability, but the fact is that the female rapper was heavily criticized, leading to disappointment towards Suboi. Shayda, who was supposed to be Suboi’s most anticipated contestant, has now become a card that the audience doubts.

Suboi's team brought a "one-on-four" battle in the Breakthrough round with Shayda receiving a lot of criticism from the audience. Saabirose had a performance that was considered brighter than Shayda's but had not yet risen enough to be in the candidate ranks. Willistic, Dacia, and V High were not very outstanding contestants.

Suboi's team entered the Breakthrough round.

Scenario repeat?

At the end of the Rap Viet Breakthrough round of season one, Suboi's team had no contestants. RIC, Dat Dope, Lor, Tage and AK49 were defeated easily in their groups. Tlinh also collapsed when she was placed in a group with a very strong opponent, MCK. After that, JustaTee gave the golden hat to tlinh to rescue the female rapper, and at the same time created conditions for Suboi's team to have a contestant in the finals.

Suboi's team in season one also had a patchwork lineup like that, with tlinh being the most prominent factor. This year, Suboi invested all her money to gather a group of female contestants. Queen B is a rapper who is somewhat famous in the underground scene. Saabirose is a promising piece for Suboi. While Shayda was an unknown from the beginning.

Under Suboi's training, all 3 female contestants were compared to tlinh. But after what happened, in reality, tlinh is still a big shadow, not only for Suboi but for all female contestants later. Suboi of season 1 only needed tlinh to explode until the final. But who does Suboi in Rap Viet season 4 have to rely on?

When it comes to popularity and bravery in a battle, Suboi will put her trust in Coldzy. This is the contestant who was saved in the Confrontation round from BigDaddy. Before Rap Viet season 4 aired, the news that Coldzy would compete again made the audience excited. Coldzy's performance on the Conquest stage also made a good impression.

However, in the battle with Quan Lee, Coldzy did not break through compared to the male rapper in the first round, leading to a regrettable defeat and also the most surprising in the Confrontation round. In Rap Viet season one, Coldzy stopped at the Breakthrough round also because the music color was not unique compared to the nature of a competition.

Suboi must have the right strategy to elevate Coldzy and put this contestant in the right group. Coldzy's success or failure is deciding many things for Suboi's team's goal of having a contestant go straight to the Finals.

Once again, the "Queen of Rap Viet" had to overcome obstacles. While the remaining coaches had strong squads and only needed to promote their warhorses to advance to the next round, Suboi was still struggling with the goal of helping her students improve each round.

Behind the disadvantage in strength, Suboi's team has a strength in surprise. Can contestants who do not carry pressure or great expectations make a difference?
