The rapper has a strong opinion it seems on all the controversies that have been brewing in the Korean hip hop scene. She said, "'Show Me the Money' is becoming an issue because of the lyrics [that some rappers performed on the show]. Because Koreans are exposed to a lot to things that may provoke them, they show more interest in the sensational rather than the dull and drama-like things. That's why the show is edited in that fashion and why the rappers have that inclination [toward the sensational]." 

She then claimed, "But it's because it's hip hop or rap that [the lyrics] are so rough. They just want to gain a little more recognition. I hope people don't jump to conclusions."  

Sunny asked the rapper, "Do you think the contestants intentionally caused controversies just to make a big issue out of them?" 

Cheetah returned, "Honestly, as someone who has been on both 'Show Me the Money' and 'Unpretty Rapstar,' there is no time to purposely plot controversies. You are on there to show off your talent anyway so there is no chance to do that sort of thing," and added, "Though there are a lot of honest and straightforward people in hip hop."
