The Cut is a 1998 MTV talent series hosted by TLC member Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes. MTV's The Cut, was the first in a line televised song contest that was later followed by American Idol. A handful of would-be pop stars, rappers, and rock bands competed against each other and were judged. The prizes were a record deal and MTV's funding to produce a music video, which would enter MTV's heavy rotation.

The season was won by a male-female rap duo named Silk-E, with rapper Lil' Noah coming in second place.^[1]

Anastacia, a then unknown singer-dancer, also made the finale, but did not win.

Premise

Artists perform in no particular order, and after the performances, a panel of alternating judges rate the performance from a scale of one to ten. half points, such as 7.5, are allowed. Whoever has the highest score at the end of the episode advances to the finals.
