After much deliberation (as it probably is every year), Vanessa Satten and the gang over at XXL have finally revealed this year’s Freshman class….and it’s probably one of the best overall groups they’ve had in a while.
Congrats goes out to Comethazine, Tierra Whack, DaBaby, Lil Mosey, Roddy Ricch, YBN Cordae, YK Osiris, Rico Nasty, Gunna, Megan Thee Stallion and Blueface, all artists who have been making big strides toward permanent stardom before this cover came to light. You can also expect a slew of freestyles, cyphers and interviews to come from this class soon.
Check out the cover and announcement video below.
