[Intro] MC Meta: He’s a rapper who can shock you.
[Text] Which rappers do the greatest rappers of South Korea respect?

Huckleberry P: Hello
Meta: Hello.

Huck P: We’re seeing each other often. Thank you very much for agreeing to participate in this.
Meta: The title of the program is ‘Respect’, and I think ‘respect’ is a word that is valuable regardless of the generation, age, or any other specifics that could be used to discriminate. You (points at Huck P) are a person I respect in this aspect, so of course I had to participate.

Huck P: Thank you. Since you already mentioned it, what is ‘respect’ for you?
Meta: It is the most basic energy, the starting point of doing and enjoying hiphop music.

Huck P: Who is the rapper you respect?
Meta: At first [after being invited to this show] various rappers came to mind. Regardless of their age, they all have excellent rap skills. I did have to think about it [TN: which rapper to choose] for some time. However, there’s this rapper I’ve observed closely and who has a good tone [of voice]. Using a flower as a metaphor, he hasn’t bloomed yet. If he does, he’ll be incredible. Personally, I think his face looks a bit more handsome than mine. He reminds [me] of a model. There were several reasons that led me to think that he is the right person to introduce on this show. His name is Ban blank.

Huck P: Ban blank has been rapping for quite a while now.
Meta: Yes.
Huck P: I’ve observed him for a long time and he’s one of very few musicians I consider myself close with.
Meta: Weren’t the two of you drunk that time?
Huck P: We were drunk often, especially me … Concerts in smaller towns tend to have very hearty after-parties.
Meta: You’re actually performing just for the sake of the after-party, no …?
Huck P: (claps) That’s about it!

Meta: Now, let’s listen to the new track of Ban blank, the rapper I respect!
Huck P: Yeah! Woo!
Meta: Yeah![/x_accordion_item][/x_accordion]
