Rhythm and Flow France (Nouvelle Ecole) is a music competition show on Netflix, where contesting French rappers compete against each other to win the prize of 100,000 euros. The show is a French version of the American show Rhythm and Flow, judged by T.I., Cardi B and Chance the Rapper. The French version is judged by the French rappers Niska and SCH and the Belgian rapper Shay. The format of the show includes freestyling, rap battles, making music videos and writing and producing their own track.
Out of the 8 episodes only the first four episodes were released on 9 June 2022. In the episodes, we saw that each judge at the rap competition, Niska, SCH and Shay tries to find local talent in their hometowns – Paris, Marseille and Brussels respectively. In the preliminary audition, they are also joined by other big names in the French Hip-Hop industry including Jul, Soso Maness, Tiakola, Hamza, Gradur and others.
The location of the audition seems to vary from a sports stadium, personal homes and high-end music studios to the streets in the neighbourhood. Each judge has their own way of selecting the contestants that they will take with them to the main competition in Paris. Out of these auditions, we are introduced to some fresh talents named – Juss, STLR, Dirlo, Leys, Elyon, Pirate and Myra to name a few, who are selected to compete in Paris.

Rhythm and Flow France New Episodes Release Date and Predictions
As we saw on the show, in the first round each selected rapper performed in front of the audience and the judges. Out of which, the 14 rappers who proved their mettle and gave a fairly good performance as compared to others were selected for the next group round. In the second round, they were asked to perform a freestyle cypher in groups of 5-5-4. However, not everyone was able to perform well under pressure and thus are under the loom of elimination, as only 10 contestants will be moving forward in the show.
The following episodes are scheduled to be released on 16 June, while the final episode will be released on 23 June 2022. Our prediction says that Houssbad and Leys are definitely moving to the next stage, meanwhile, Judge Shay seemed to be rooting for Juss, even though he messed up his performance. We are also rooting for KT Gorique and Vink to move forward but their subpar performance may not make the cut. All fingers crossed, let’s see what’s to come in the upcoming episodes.
