I just saw the XXl Freshmen list, pretty wack if you ask me. I have no clue who some of these people even are & a couple I do know but still haven't heard enough from them to put on anyone's list. I have no top 10 to look out for because there really is no telling who's gonna be the next big thing by the end of this year. You had Blu, Kid Cudi, Wale, & Charles Hamilton on the cover 3 years ago, where's Charles? & Blu is making random unmixed albums. Don't get your hopes up because you make that cover, word on the streets is A$AP turned XXL down & so did Chip The Ripper (he said it was NOT a good look for him). The best rapper on this list is Danny Brown this year, he's good money but I don't know if he can get that mass appeal from the people, you have to ACTUALLY like rap music, not just stuff on the radio. But props to XXL because they got people talking about them, which I'm sure they set out to do, like that terrible terrible terrible MTV list earlier...keep up the good work guys.
PS: HOW DID ROSCOE DASH MAKE THE FRESHMEN LIST I DIDN'T KNOW "ALL THE WAY TURNT UP" JUST DROPPED!! (yes I really yelled that when I saw the cover)
