Hip-Hop was slippin for while but these last couple of years things have been getting better. These dudes right here are the future of hip-hop. I picked my Top 4 out of the Top 10 Freshman and in case ya don't know much about these dudes I got a music sample for each of them. These dudes and others like Drake are bringing rap back to its roots. I miss old school rap where a song didn't need a 45 sec chorus or have to feature an R&B artist (though some Collabo's are cool), but it could just be about the Rhymes. At the end of the day it should be about the music so many rappers out now can't even spit (Soldier Boy, Juelz Santana and I could go on but why give them any kind of publicity, they damn sure don't deserve it) and it is all about having a gimmick and marketability rather than true talent. But these four dudes have got REAL talent and I can't wait until they truly get the respect they deserve.
