Your Favorite of the XXL Freshmen 2009

[thejrob]

I personally am feelin a lot of the dudes on this list. I know some have been around for a while, but who are you guys likin the most. For people who don'tknow the list included: Blu, Asher Roth, Charles Hamilton, Ace Hood, Kid Cudi, B.O.B, Wale, Currency, Mickey Factz, and Cory Gunz. My favorites are C.Hamilton, Wale, and Blu

I haven't heard any of these dudes music. Any recommendations?

Blu

I actually listen to Blu, Currency, and Wale. I've never heard any of Ace Hood, Mickey Factz, Cory Gunz, or Asher Roth's music, don't really planon it either. Charles Hamilton is eh, I've thoroughly both of B.o.B's mixtapes. Kudi has a handful of songs that i really like.

With that said. Blu is head and shoulders above all of them. Shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as any of them.

Wale put out one of my all time favorite mixtapes in 100 Miles & Running. MTAN didn't really do much for me. I like all of his mixtapes though, heavilyanticipating his album.

Curren$y is my dude but he needs to stop %#$*#%+ around and put out an album. Independence Day, Life at 30k, Higher Than 30K, and Winners Circle are my #%%+.After that I kind of lost interest in him. Dude is dope though, he spits a lot of #%%+ I can relate to ("I wanna rip bong with my skater friends"makes me laugh every time

) (so do Blu and Wale).

I've gotten a few recommendations to check out Blu but haven't done it yet... where's dude from and does he have a mixtape worth checking out?

Blu's from Los Angeles.

Check out Below The Heavens, (So)ul Amazing Mixtape, So)ul Amazing Pt. 2, and The Lifted EP in that order. After that you'll be ready to venture into hisLP's with other producers.

Like I said, you really can't compare Blu to the rest of these internet/mixtape dudes.

[flip sensayshun]

Blu's album was too sick.

That's what I hear. Apparently dude has a lot of talent. Does he have any mixtapes or anything?

Blu, Wale, Ace Hood, and Corey gunz. I just heard below the heavens like 2 weeks ago and I havent put it to rest. Wale is slackin and needs to put out a albumalready. Ace Hood and Corey gunz both need some new material that will revive the faith I have in them.

CuDi & Wale are the ones I listen to the most

I dabble in C.H. Asher etc. etc. but they haven't really done anything I was REALLY feelin

 

[rwfanatic]

People are sleeping on Charles Hamilton....

 

[purplehazze96]

I see the talent but dude has put in work to make me not like him and I don't even know the guy.

 

[el flaco mcfly]

hands down blu....but cudi, asher and wale are dope

 

[pntgio]

Check this song out. If it doesn't put you onto blu then hes just not meant for you.

 

[yungchamp]

curren$y

 

[highrep87]

drake > ........

 

[purplenurple1414]

Cudi > Wale > Hamilton > Blu > B.o.B. > Asher Roth > everyone else except Ace Hood >>>> Ace Hood.
just my opinion.

 

[just in time]

Drake...someone already beat me to it though. It was a crime he wasn't on that cover...

I'd pick Wale EASY from the dudes who did make it

 

[cracka kc]

Blu>Walerake>B.O.B>KiD CuDi.. the rest are just garbage ace hood get the &*$! out of here with that garbage

 

[MajinZuub]

Blu, Wale and Charles Hamilton are my favorite 3....

B.o.B. is cool, I wasn't feeling his mixtapes that much though. Cudi's stuff is hit or miss with me, he needs more than one mixtape though. I stillneed to peep more Curren$y but from what I've heard dude can spit. Mickey Factz's mixtapes were kinda eh(Inspiration 2 was decent though) but I'mrooting for him. As much as everyone likes Asher Roth, I just wasn't feeling that Greenhouse Effect mixtape he was beyond corny/annoying to me at points ofit, I don't see how he can be compared to Em besides the fact he's white. And Ace Hood sucks.
