In a recent interview, Yang Hyun Suk confirmed iKON’s debut date while discussing YG Entertainment and its artists. He confirmed that iKON would be debuting after BIGBANG’s promotions end.
It appears as though the head of YG Entertainment was not planning on revealing this news, but ended up answering after receiving questions about iKON during his interview. The reporter asked whether the next YG artist to promote would be iKON or WINNER. He replied, “We haven’t been able to rest since BIGBANG is releasing new songs every month until September 1. It’s not easy to film two music videos every time. So we had no choice but to avoid promoting iKON and BIGBANG at the same time. [iKON] will debut on September 15.” He continued, “There is great significance for YG to have [iKON] debuting after BIGBANG since they are a hip-hop boy group. We will do our best to launch them. Both iKON and WINNER have produced around 50 songs each. Since BIGBANG is in their ninth year, they are at a stage when they can release a song whenever. But a couple of years ago, their songs were often rejected. WINNER and iKON are not ripe yet. Altogether their 100 songs were rejected, but a few of them are being fixed. We want to make both groups long-lasting like BIGBANG. YG has always placed great importance on musicians making their own music and teaching them to develop those talents. iKON and WINNER will not be an exception. It’s great that they can make their own clothes [music].” Are you excited about iKON’s debut?

After the cypher mission which ultimately resulted in the elimination of a couple contestants, the remaining rappers got to take a breather as they sat back and judged the producers' performances! This time around, the contestants were the ones reviewing the judging panel on their rapping in order to decide which producer team they want to join. The producers all put on the best stage they could by showing off their swagger and pouring forth their energy. Tablo and Jinusean, who were third to perform, brought on fellow YG mates Bobby and B.I. for added force. Producers LOCO and Zico noted the special appearances of the iKON members. LOCO jokingly said, "I think Bobby and B.I came out too fast. It was enough seeing them in their previous performances [in the third season]." Zico shared similar playful sentiments, as he told the production crew, "In my opinion Bobby was cooler when he didn't come out." SMTM4 STREAMING LINKS
