Agreed. He is def a symbol of harlem youth with a splash of 90′s style to him. His music is still questionable too me though. He hasn’t fully delivered quality yet, but he has the potential. One thing I will give though he’s honest(even with the terms of his own contract), although he has obvious bias of not being on the list, he still spoke the truth.Which is why they should have a considerable mentinos category on that list.

XXL did the same thing to Vado a few years back,, they should leave it up to public opinion.

I think overall XXL list has really produced a few bankable stars over the years.. Sure they missed Vado but so has the rest of the general public. I think this list is pretty good and I look forward to it every year because there is always a few cats on there that I’m like WHO THE FUCK IS THAT! And then they show up big time..

please stop with “this person should have been on the list” bullshit.
Typical comment: “ASAP + (random fuck I’ve never heard of but is 99% chance a wack ass rapper) should be on this list”
STOP!
ASAP’s killing everyone! His music speaks for itself! that’s real talk. It’s so obvious, and I love how he’s being 100 about it. He’s damn right – outside of Danny Brown (who I mentioned before can actually rhyme), the rest of those cats are TRASHBAGS. They need hype to sell their shit.
Action Bronson is hot garbage. Don’t know why anyone would waste their time with a watered-down Ghostface fat-white-kid gimmick.
