(This post contains spoilers!) I am FUMING after watching the finale of “Rhythm & Flow” Season 2 on Netflix! But, I am not alone…
Viewers of the rap competition series have taken to their Twitter timelines outraged about the events of this season leading up to Ludacris, Latto, and DJ Khaled’s MIND-BOGGLING decision to crown DreTL as the winner over standout Jay Taj.
From the moment he took the stage on “Rhythm & Flow,” Jay Taj was a clear and undeniable talent.
The West Coast rapper is more polished than a new pair of Stacy Adams and he has more bars than Hershey.
Week after week, viewers watched as Jay Taj continued to raise the bar, exceed expectations, and dominated every challenge presented in the competition.
See Exhibit A Below.

One might say Jay Taj is a better rapper and performer than the artists who were judging him. But, I digress.
With that being said, I’m sure you can imagine how flabbergasted viewers were when Atlanta rapper DreTL was declared the “Rhythm & Flow” Season 2 winner.
Respectfully, DreTL is talented, however, he couldn’t hold a candle in a teflon Bath & Body Works bag to Jay Taj and the judges know that.

Sura Ali attitude is so ugly. She too cocky, can’t take criticism and her performance was boring talking about robbed like girl you should’ve left before jasx. She would’ve gave us a better performance. #RhythmAndFlow pic.twitter.com/x0CSNN0g8u

Jay Taj didn’t have one bad critique throughout the entire competition & the judges said he was the most perfect yet they didn’t give him the win….. 🫠#RhythmAndFlow pic.twitter.com/9f0vkYMuDk
