Do any of these idiots actually make material worthy of the tag 'music' though.
Based on my ever reliable 'judging a book by its cover' technique I'd say no.

What the fuck is that disgusting heap of skank in the bottom right corner?

Check out the 'Step-Brothers' mixtape, one of the best releases last year.

Raekwon stole J-Kwon's name. After that, he jus couldn't catch a break and the genre died with him.

Piff Tannen · Post by **Piff Tannen** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 11:50 am

chip the ripper turned it down too, along with asap. makes me wonder how many people actually turned it down

maybe thats why the list is so poo stained

drizzle · Post by **drizzle** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 11:56 am

the next obvious question here is who do you think should actually be on this?

Echo Leader · Post by **Echo Leader** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 12:02 pm

Sheezus. XXL needs to stick to doing classic album breakdowns and nothing else.

$tarlito, King Louie, Gunplay, DB Tha General, Lil' Phat, Riff Raff, Fat Trel and the ghost of Slim Dunkin.

Req · Post by **Req** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 1:05 pm

no, Riff Raff deserves his own cover.

Career Over Like Mike(NJJ) · Wed Feb 29, 2012 1:07 pm

True. Substitute him for Treal Lee & Prince Rick then.

Larry2times · Post by **Larry2times** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 1:41 pm

Add Roachy Balboa to the list. I voted for Starlito and I'm kinda amazed Don Trip made it, not cause I especially dislike him just I never woulda thought he was popular enough to be the token Fader/P4k hick rapper.

Not that these lists are ever well thought out or anything.

yo step. this is your fight with hip hop and the internet right now.

i feel you, bruh. fighting the good fight sucks.

i think Danny Brown is the only one who's completely proven himself. funny that Chip and Rocky both turned it down, too.

Riff Raff and Action Bronson would've been some good picks. Maybe even Dom Kennedy.

Poster for the WWE undercard wrestlers?

maclethal · Post by **maclethal** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 7:10 pm

Dom Kennedy, Schoolboy Q, 2 Chainz, Action Bronson, Riff Raff, Chevy Woods, Trouble, Trae the Truth (why not? they put Curren$y on it) all belong on the list. Childish Gambino prolly deserves a spot too.

Roscoe Dash has like 5 hit records and has been on pop radio for years.

Even V Nasty would have made more sense than some of these names.

Oh well, I have yet to see it make (or break) a career.

Also, I am pretty sure Chip the Ripper got called out for lying about turning a spot down.

Interscope is clearly in XXL's pockets. Outside of Danny Brown, who's legit, Don Trip (honestly never heard of him before seeing this list yesterday), seems worthy. Gonna check out his mixtape.

A complete joke to say the least. I can't get into Macklemores music at all. I sorta tried.
