The latest hype in the Korean rap scene is Unpretty Rap Star, Mnet‘s female spin-off of Show Me The Money, and the cypher video from the first episode has dropped just in time for the January 29th premiere.

Mnet has released a number of preview videos so far, including a freestyle video of Lucky J‘s Jessi and a rap battle video of each contestant.

This time, the “100 Second Cypher” video features all eight contestants together in a group mission, and offers a preview of what the first episode will look like. Cheetah, Kisum, AOA‘s Jimin, Lil Cham, Tymee, Yuk Ji Dam, Jessi, and Jolly V appear in order to deliver their individual verses on the cypher.

The video ends by asking the audience to pick their favorite rapper for the first mission through the show’s Twitter account. One voter will be chosen to receive a pair of Beats By Dre headphones.

Unpretty Rap Star has released several more pieces of information through their Twitter page. So far, it is known that San E will take the role as one of the MCs, and Block B‘s Zico will appear as the first producer for the show. Zico will choose one of the eight contestants to feature in his new upcoming single.
