The XXL editors are already in the conference room deciding on the widely known XXL Freshmen. If you don't know about the Freshmen of XXL then you certainly have been living outside of the Hip-Hop realm. Those selected to be in the group are usually Hip-Hop's future in one way or the other. Some have been majorly influential while others are still working and putting out music. Honestly without the annual XXL Freshmen phenomena I wouldn't have been put on to Kendrick Lamar and his genius or I wouldn't have attempted to understand Lil B's questionable character. With a seat in the class comes plenty of opened doors.
As you can guess this has some serious coverage. Many debate, including myself, on which rapper deserves a seat. We've never had the opportunity to vote for our favorite newcomer and so that's what makes this time a bit more special and most likely way more hectic. Don't be surprised to see someone shouting, or cap locking, their favorite rappers on your favorite sites.
