It is that time of the year again, folks, where XXL reveals their Freshman cover. This year’s “Dirty Dozen” are Chance the Rapper, Rich Homie Quan, Isaiah Rashad, Ty Dolla $ign, Lil Durk, Kevin Gates, Troy Ave, Vic Mensa, Lil Bibby, Jon Connor, Jarren Benton, and August Alsina. There is always a ton of scrutiny on who makes the cut, and by the look of it this year will be no different. The actual definition of “freshman” is always a hot debate because many of these artists have already had multiple mixtapes, and August Alsina just dropped his debut album. Many may have something to say about August and Ty Dolla $ign making the cut since they are more in the R&B category and the list is usually limited to rappers. What do you think about the list? Do you think these 12 men were deserving of gracing the cover? Not one female on the cover? Who do you think should have made it? Hit us in the comments to let us know your thoughts.
