Because artists don't need XXL. If anything XXL is more of a hinder to an artist, because most people view it as a joke. But I'm sure it could still maybe open some doors, and if you're a starving artist of course you take the oppurtunity. But people don't be checking magazines and bloggers for new artists these days. There are so many different avenues now. XXL has becomes a parady of itself.
It's because XXL can't seem to understand that bringing production reliant rappers onto a freestyle doesn't work well. Also Luh Tyler & 2Rare had better verses to use but XXL chose the ass ones to generate views most likely.
"hit you from the neck up like a keychain" Leave me alone like a ppp" "I dont have a v8 but you dont have a vehicle" "When my eye's twitchin that means that somebody's talkin" 2rare with the quotables😭😭
the downfall of xxl mostly stems from artists getting so big so quick that they turn down the list or them getting some rappers on the list that fans would wanna see but they dont even freestyle or do a cypher verse 💀
@staigenerator2949 nahh his was pretty solid. Wym? Wasn't better than the first 3 no. But he kept the vibe goin. 2rare fucked up the vibe. N I actually listened to 2rare the other day. He's actually not a bad artist. The nigga jus can't freestyle to save his life 💀
If he keeps it up, I'm excited for someone like 2rare. He's fucking dogass rn but he's trying really hard to be different and if he keeps trying he might find something really unique. Maybe a lot later in the future, but still we need to big up people trying like him tbh
I understand that they can’t have the fan vote determine every artist for representations sake (regionality, rap type, gender, etc.) but IMO we should have more than 1 spot bc it felt like DC was one of two people who were consistently putting in effort (finesse being the other).
also central cee was a wasted spot. he came all the way from london just to do his abc?. cmon... allow people who WANNA be there doing chypers and freestyles
@@bloodnessxCee's a case of "yeah, he earned it but didn't need one" type of rapper. If Cee made a Freshman list prior to Doja dropping, I wouldn't be against it.

@@mtsg3761 to be fair back in the day it was easier for XXL to get a group of good artist because up and coming artist had to get heard on the radio, get a name drop and feature from a bigger artist, and get air time. If someone was bad they wasn't getting any air time. Now XXL seems to be going by if a artist has clout on social media. I haven't heard of none of these artist except Finesse, Lola, and Glorilla(who didn't even participate). After looking them up it seems like all the other people are either known from tik tok or got a couple million view videos on RUclips. That's why the quality has gone down. Some people are getting popular from being a meme. Like I'm pretty sure 2rare only got popular because people make fun of the chalk hairline and not because he make some stand out music. They're all clones of other rappers/singers.
