what qualifies these dudes as freshmen? Emilio Rojas (Raks-One/Sycorax) been around for about 8 years, maybe longer $:-\$

hes definitely one of the best from that list imo
yes and i been a fan since he was raks one but dude didnt start getting hype tell around now. saigon & crooked i got the first freshman cover in 07 or 08 (forget) and those dudes been in the game longer than that by a long shot.

fair enough...yeah its good to see dude finally getting some recognition

Well basically this like pre-season picks for like any sports. But now its for the XXL 2012 Freshman year. A lot of guys are putting in work and hustling their way to the top but only 10 will make it this year.
Also if XXL tells the people that the writers can't come to the meeting with a whole list of 10 I may flip out and tell them to get the hell out of here. I have come up with a list of at least 40 (coming near the end of the year) of possibilities. Another disclaimer this list WILL NOT contain XV, Vado, Tyler The Creator, Jay Electronica, Tyga, and Chip Tha Ripper, as I believe and I'm sure they are past being Freshman.

1. TiRon
2. ScHoolboy Q
3. Ab-Soul
4. Theophilus London
5. Gilbere Forte
6. Dom Kennedy
7. Trademark Da Skydiver
8. Machine Gun Kelly
9. Shawn Chrystopher
10. Stalley

Honorable Mention - Young Roddy, Laws, Casey Veggies, Childish Gambino, Chevy Woods, Dee-1, Theo Martins, Chris Webby, Los, Tory Lanez, Smoke DZA, Thee Tom Hardy, Kid Ink, Danny Brown, Jon Connor, CurT@!n$, Phil Ade, Lil Chuckee, Rockie Fresh, Emilio Rojas, Esso, Khleo, Tinie Tempah, Kid Daytona, Mont Brown
