In February 2021 while the show was still being recorded, Pluma shared to his close friends list on Instagram that he was going to be on a song with Jay Park which one of his friends screenshotted and posted to on online forum, revealing that Min-jae was on Jay Park's team. As giving any spoilers to the show is prohibited, it is believed that the "evil" editing of episode 6 was in response to his violation of the rule. After the episode was broadcast, Pluma received various hate messages and threats on his Instagram account, which led him to disable his comments.
Ep. 7-8: Team Battle: Textbook Rap Battle Unlike the previous seasons, students had to choose a topic from any textbook and write a song about it.
There were two rounds of voting and for groups that lost, only one of them were allowed to pass and the other one disqualified.
This episode had 20 guest judges including Donutman, Khakii, Munchman, Layone, Basick, Zizo, Hanhae, Kebee, Viceversa, Choi LB, Ja Mezz, skyminhyuk, Black Nine, Heo Seong-hyun, MckDaddy, Bryn, Dbo, Ahn Byung-woong, Qwala & O'domar.
