The next big challenge on Mnet’s Unpretty Rapstar: Hip Pop Princess is about to drop.
In tonight’s episode, viewers will witness the second track competition, the Main Producer New Song Mission. Fans are expecting a high-energy performance as contestants merge their self-produced skills with the guidance of top producers.
Four teams go head-to-head, each working with a track from one of the main producers: Soyeon, Gaeko, RIEHATA, and Takanori Iwata. Only the winning team will have their song officially released. This round shakes things up with Korea-Japan mixed teams, promising fresh collaborations and surprising creative synergy. The songs to watch include: “CROWN (Prod. GAN),” “DAISY (Prod. Gaeko),” “Diss papa (Prod. Soyeon of (G)I-DLE),” and “Hoodie Girls (Prod. Padi, RIEHATA).”
All eyes are on the “DAISY (Prod. Gaeko)” team, which includes the competition’s current top-ranked contestant and a lineup of strong performers. Combining contestants’ raw talent with producers’ expert direction, this stage promises to deliver personal and emotional storytelling through music.
A sneak peek of the DAISY performance has already ignited social media, with a striking opening that hints at a legendary stage. Producers reportedly gave a standing ovation, showering the team with praise. Gaeko even commented, “Shouldn’t these five just debut as a group?”—a statement that has only heightened anticipation for tonight’s episode.
Hip-Pop Princess airs every Thursday on Mnet, and Japanese fans can watch via U-NEXT.
