know several ppl but wouldn't be able to tell what their music sounds like

Big X is big on Spotify damn

Maiya and Scarlip

People gonna hate but I’m actually glad that they still do these

NO TOMMY RICHMAN

He probably coulda been on the freshman list 2 years ago tbh, maybe last year for sure

Mexican OT Is so fire

its all that magazine got left

s-tier gym song

Happy to see Mexican OT make it, really love his music

It’s funny cause if you look back at therir recent lists that a lot of people hated on, 75% of the lists are still active and even more relevant today

Feel like rising artists must be turning this down at this point, the way this list has fallen off is crazy

Maybe IG feed underground artists

Many of these artists are way more popular and outside of that scene

Lay Banks fine as s***

XXL wouldn't have fell off if they chose RX Papi in 2021

What about them has fallen off?

Looking at the last few years of this list, you can count on one hand the amount of artists still making any waves/noise in a notable way

That's a big change from the artists they picked for the first 6-8 years of this list

No Osamason or Nettspend?

I liked Lay Bankz but her stuff damn near seems ai-made recently.

Heard of BigXThaPlug, Cash Cobain, Bossman Dlow, and 4Batz which is more than I’ve known from the last few years

before she started making pop music>>

jfc

Seeing Skilla up there crazy, it's been damn near a decade

Solid list though
