Best Hip Hop newcomer?

Postby mcZu » Jun 22nd, '09, 20:14

Who do you think is the best newcomer in Hip Hop?

I'm leaning towards J. Cole, though it may be a toss up between him and Wale.
Charles can't write songs, he just freestyles.
Corry's voice annoys the fuck outta me, and he is on some bullshit in his lyrics, he got just multies.
Drake..well, I dunno. He's not bad. Gotta give him some more time.

I think that Drake has the most buzz around him right now, but all those guys are going to hit it big.

Drake has so many hip-hop and R&B superstars backing him and calling him the next big thing that he has to succeed.

Yeah, Drake got the biggest buzz.

But whom do you think is the better emcee (in your opinion)?

Drake
I could wrap around these other niggas like a cobra snake


Fuck Drake. Overrated son of a bitch needs to stick to singing.

J. Cole is the best of the newcomers. Period. Check his mixtape The Come Up... that shit was fucking fire

Yeah I see him up there, but he has enough of a buzz to over rule the fact that I don't really fuck wit him. And I don't think he's whack, I just don't like him and he's not my type of MC. J Cole shits on everybody on the list except maybe Wale, but past that he got it on lock. Cory Gunz look like a fuckin cricket. Drake is average as fuck with a big ass buzz. And yeah.

Well damn. I haven't really heard shit from him, and the stuff I remember was decent. Just not me so I dont check for the guy.

And I dunno... I just wanted to say smtn about each one and I don't think Cory is whack, repetitive maybe, but not whack. So I threw out the fact that he looks like a cricket

Anyone wanna recommend songs? From Drake & J Cole, cause they got the best results. Haven't heard of any of them, guessing it's an American thing or i'm just out of the loop. :p

Drake is extremely average. He was the crippled kid on the nickelodian show Degrassi. He sings more than he raps. He's light skinned with a big smile, and that goes a long way when you're trying to get female fans on your side.

J Cole on the other hand is dope. Check:

Losing my Balance
and pretty much anything youtube redirects you to.

I voted for Drake just because he's the only one that i have really listened to. I have never even heard of J Cole though so ill go check him out.

I like Asher Roth more than anyone on you poll, and he's the only one who's actually dropped an album. But Drake def. has the biggest buzz (too rnb for me though).
