From G's to Gents (Season 2) is the second season of the MTV reality television series From G's to Gents. This season is hosted by Fonzworth Bentley, and premiered on February 10, 2009. The objective of the show is to make the transformation from a roughneck to a sophisticated gentleman. In the end, Mito was decided upon to be the most transformed and refined gentleman, winning the cash prize of $100,000 and membership in "The Gentleman's Club." Blue, the runner-up, was inducted as a member into the Gentleman's Club.

Reason for Elimination

Name Reason for Elimination Eliminated
Roq Monte Was more into being a model, and neither the other contestants nor Mr. Bentley felt he belonged at the Gentlemen's Club. Episode 1
Flex Flex was more interested in working out in the gym, and lacked respect amongst his peers. Episode 1
Dre Owns his own clothing line and had already established his business. Episode 1
RiFF RaFF He was in the competition simply for the money, and Mr. Bentley felt that Riff Raff's problems were beyond his help. Episode 2
Jojo Jojo was intoxicated during the rap battle challenge, and was subsequently disqualified for cursing. He later blackballed himself. Episode 3
A-Felon Walked off the stage during the rap challenge, and hurled insults at Macho afterwards. In addition, Mr. Bentley decided that he hadn't seen enough change to warrant A-Felon staying. Episode 3
A.D. Eliminated along with A-Felon due to his part in the insulting of Macho, despite having denied any involvement in the incident. He also tried to put all the blame on his closest ally. Episode 3
Macho Besides losing the respect of his peers, Mr. Bentley's "three strikes" rule also came into effect as this was Macho's third time called onto the carpet. Episode 4
Protégé Never made any significant progress. Mr. Bentley claimed he spoke a good game, but could not back it up. Episode 5
Fahim Mr. Bentley cited his ongoing lack of progress in the competition, with the final straw being his poor performances in the career counseling session and photo shoot challenge. Episode 6
All In He was too focused on helping others instead of himself, which had stunted his progress. Episode 7
Lank Mr. Bentley felt that Lank had chosen not to take advantage of past opportunities he had been given, due to his attitude. Episode 8
Baron[1] Mr. Bentley felt that Baron needed to go home and apply the changes he learned at the Gentlemen club to his life at home. Episode 9
Teddy Tee Mr. Bentley felt as though he could not see Teddy representing the Gentleman's Club because of his past deeds. Bentley did say to Teddy that he'd revisit him in 6 months to see if he truly did want to change and to be sure that he would not revert to pimping. Episode 10
Blue After thinking about the progress Shotta made in the past season, Mr. Bentley felt that Blue should earn the money to boost up his confidence. However, he was warranted a membership in the Gentleman's club and a year of housing Episode 10
