[29] The increasing number of contestants joining the show is due to the increasing financial difficulties most rappers face during the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic. With the lack of in-person concerts, events, and gigs happening right now, most of them now focus on online streaming and web-content platforms which does not provide as much income. With the great success of season 9, the contestants see the show as a path to success where they can be discovered and produce chart-hitting songs.
This season will also carry out a “10th Anniversary Project” that crosses broadcasting, online and Over The Top platforms under the concept of “The Original”, celebrating the show’s rich history of serving as a forefront of the Korean Hip-Hop scene, as well as the emergence of up and coming Korean artists who joined the show.
The winner of this season will receive a prize money of ₩300,000,000 plus album production and ultra-luxary music business support.
