A Sneak Peak at XXL’s 2010 Freshmen 10 (Video)

MTV gives us a sneak peak at 4 of the artists listed as XXL’s 2010 Freshmen 10. For those that can’t decipher the code… it’s Pill, Nipsey Hu$$le, J. Cole and Fashawn. By now, I thought the list was common knowledge but I guess not. Let’s keep playing the game.

  1. Who exactly is on the list, I’ve seen like 4 different versions, that all claim to be official.

  2. you know it’s not common knowledge LOL, we only know Big Sean cause you said it in another post. Oops….

  3. I hope Nipsey has a big year. I’ve loved the few joints I’ve heard from him, definitely has star potential

  4. J cole all day

  5. they did a job job pickin freshman last year so im not worried.. good seein fashawn on there too and j.cole

  6. If XXL is too dumb not to put Wiz Khalifa, Dom Kennedy, or Big Sean on the list, #Killyourself XXL

  7. I’m STILL passed they passed over XV. Makes no sense.

  8. whos that last guy?

  9. ^: Its Fashawn. Oh, If XXL is too dumb not to put Wiz Khalifa, Dom Kennedy, or Big Sean on the list, #Killyourself XXL

  10. ^^^^^^^^
    Fashawn

  11. What about Mike Posner?Wiz Khalifa?Who else?

  12. Fashawn is on there so I’m happy. He needs to blow up big this year and get all the respect he deserves.

  13. heard juiceman is gonna b on it I hope not. but besides him I already listen to everybody on the list. But my question is who do yall say is gonna b this year drake. By that I mean a relative unknown out shine some the ppl on the list ?? I say its between XV or Big K.R.I.T

  14. Donnis is on it

  15. is Mike Posner considered rapper? forreal idk, ive only heard him singing and doing hooks.. and well this shit’s only 4 rappers

  16. no G.I. Gibbs? cmon now…

  17. the list
    Pill
    Freddie Gibbs
    wiz Khalifa
    donnis
    Nipsey Hussle
    J.cole
    Fashawn
    juiceman
    big sean

  18. If XXL is too dumb not to put Wiz Khalifa, Dom Kennedy, or Big Sean on the list, #Killyourself XXL
    all the way

  19. Should be:
    J. Cole
    Fashawn
    Jay Electronica
    Wiz Khalifa
    Mike Posner
    Big Sean
    Dom Kennedy
    XV
    Nipsey Hussle
    Drake (no mention last year)

  20. There’s no need to put Drake on the list, he’s already blown up, and Mike Posner isn’t a rapper.

  21. why do they believe OJ da juicer has any appeal at all? damn XXL is a garbage ass magazine. no Dom either? wow.

  22. o jay rock is on the 2

  23. @ahkidagreat

    I don’t think there’s gonna be another Drake this year, I feel like his success was an anomaly, like 50′s was, where its just the right set of circumstances led to him exploding onto the scene. I don’t think we’ll see something like Drake again for another couple of years

  24. I c why they put juice on there but there is a huge list of over qualified replacements

  25. Also Shake, you forgot to cross out the M in MTV this time lol

  26. @jesus
    I know there will probably b another drake but Im saying some1 that will achieve some 2 the point that ppl will ask ” how come he wasn’t on da list?”

  27. Oh, I see what you mean.

  28. what song is that from fashawn?

  29. jay rock should have been in it

  30. THAT LIST IS KIND OF CORNY.

  31. juiceman would ruin the entire isssue.

  32. aight Freddie on it but no Jay Electronica? that dont make ANY sense with all the hype this nigga been gettin online… ah well cant please everybody right…i feel there’s gonna be a huge uproar when the list comes out with him off it hahaha

  33. i heard Jay was asked to be on last year but he was touring so Ace got his spot

  34. XV…And If He Aint On It Then They Screwin Him Fa Real….

  35. XV over OJ Da Juice ALL DAY.Fuck OJ and his bullshit/retarded songs…can’t rap worth shit

  36. my list imo
    j cole
    big sean
    freddie gibbs
    pill
    donnis
    nipsey hussle
    fashawn
    xv
    chip tha ripper
    and the darkhorse would be nickelus f

  37. yo can someone tell me the list for 2007 and 2008?

  38. @munkeeD

    there was no 2007 but 2008 was
    Lil Boosie, Saigon, Lupe Fiasco, Plies, Rich Boy, Gorilla Zoe, Young Dro, Crooked I, Papoose, and Joell Ortiz

    wow i just realized that most of this list has only released two or less albums and some havent even released any

  39. its a sad day when atlantics throwing plies albums into stores like nothin but saigon and lupes albums cant even get release dates

  40. J. Cole >>>>>>>

  41. yallact like oj dont got a bigger fanbase then half these dudes you naming…these niggas are only internet celebs…go anywhere outside dot nobody know who a pill is or a donnis or a xv?…fashawn?…man gtfoh…that aint sayin they aint good…but look at last years list…all internet celebs…all floppers…they no different than an ace hood or oj…cuz they flop as well…just a different fanbase…that might prefer a nice beat or club music over lyrics…

    man yall aint hip hop why im even arguin this?

  42. Nipsey is WACK AS FUCK

  43. J. Cole’s year.. and Blu’s year too, but Blu was mentioned last year I think….

    Glad to see Fashawn on the list too, dude is dope… What about Outasight?

  44. Who The Fuck Is Ah 0j The Juiceman Sound Like Ah Grown Ass Nigga Sellin 0range Juice 0utside His Moms House Lol.. But He Trash As Fuck & Didnt He Get Boo’d At Ah Sho Only Reason He Has Mo Fans Is Cuz Of Gucci Suey Ass.

  45. REPLACE Pill with XV…and REPLACE Nipsey Hussle with YoungMuchacho then we got a deal…YoungMuchacho -

  46. JonnieHayward should go die under a rock. gtfoh with your links, no one is gonna click that.

  47. ^^oh yes you will..you will respect me fool

  48. im glad fashawn is on there hes remarkable but my beef is why no pac div or dom kennedy? n wtf is a oj da juiceman real talk like 99% of niggas dont even relate to dat trap/hood shit cuz i kno i dont. my beef is its alot of good hip hop out there but ppl would rather listen to shit that keeps them igorant and stupid. and u got ppl who kno nothin about hip hop sayin its all guns n drugs. dats wack.

  49. @yessir504
    how are we not hip hop just because we like music that has substance or meaning behind it. Even if their mostly known on the internet that doesn’t make them a bad artist

  50. lmao @ JonnieHayward “^^oh yes you will..you will respect me fool”

  51. CHIP!!!!!!!!
    WIZ!!!!!!!!!
    MIKE P!!!!!!

  52. JonnieHayward i actually gave that a listen.
    being totally objective, stop your rambling, you arent better than nipsey.
    and imo that couldve been mixed a little better.

  53. ^^I was joking on the whole better than Nipsey part but aite cool appreciate it

  54. Curren$y

  55. i will be highly upset if XV isn’t on thisist

  56. FASHAWN…..hell yea

    b.o.b
    nipsey
    charles hamilton if he gets his head outa his ass

  59. asher roths comin back yall, ya better believe it! (lol jokes)

  60. xv, big sean, and wiz are gonna make it. i wonder who the other 3 are…. chip ? jay rock ? skyzoo ? dom kennedy ? (actually he hasn’t made much noise lately.. drake ? (since he wasn’t mentioned last year) If Nicki Minaj makes it i’m going to slap the fuck out of someone

  61. i hope that nigga donnis didnt make the list nigga is overrated

  62. Jay Electronica & J. Cole>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

  63. Wiz? are you serious. He’s been relevant for at least 3 years. JAY ELECTRONICA? ARE YOU RETARDED. He was “unsigned hype” in 2004… but congratulations, your in college… so you think you know everything about music..

  64. XV better be on this list. Dude needs to get recognized. I got a lot of respect for XXL, but if they leave XV out, they trippin!

  65. my list..
    wiz khalifa
    donnis
    dom kennedy
    chip the rip ( old but comin back)
    nipsey hussle
    xv
    big sean
    fashawn
    j.cole

  66. ohh and definitely pac div!
