Post by: Darkwing Duck (The Reincarnation) on May 21, 2011, 08:01:35 AM: fuck that
most of these new cats r ridin on some youtube/cyberspace-bandwagon bullshit, n havent paid any dues. no skills basically
industry is overrated wit rappers as it is already. we dont need anymore.

like DJ KAYSLAY say "no more rappers"

id rather listen to an artist im familiar wit, n followed - than a bunch of teenage punks wit no creative n artistic integrity.
save it for the new braindead generation..

Lil B is enuff for me

Title: XXL Freshman 2012 Midyear Predictions - Top 10
Post by: rayallen0 on June 01, 2011, 11:30:45 PM: 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
