2012 XXL Freshman Cover
Tuesday, February 28 2012 12:13 PM EST | Posted by: Big Homie | Posted in: Blog, Newsstand StanYup, it is that time of the year, folks. Today XXL gives you Internet kids something to argue about with their 2012 freshman class. Damn, B.Dot nailed it. Surely, PETA will do the same with French.
Last Year: 2011 Class

Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!
The best things in life are free, but hopping on Hov's press conference stage uninvited is gon cost cha. Whatcha did was wrong! ⎯B.Dot
This cover is cool!!
p.s.

looks like a buncha fuck niggas on this
roscoe dash had a major hit single 3 yrs ago! 3 yrs is a junior gottdamnit! hopspin? macklemore? who the fuck are they? iggy had A hit internet viral! A, as in ONE, what the fuck have these lists come to?
Roscoe Dash? How is he even considered a freshmen…. Not really feeling the freshmen this year (ll)
Roscoe Dash?
Did He Get Held Back
no chip tha ripper…all this other fools r trash
If this is the new freshman class, I’m glad I already graduated….
Hopsin Is Sick,Don Trip And Danny Brown Are Nice,Don’t Really Like French And It’s Missing Dee-1.
This is laughable
no ASAP Rocky??
yall need to check out Macklemore
@Lay-Z
Ya I’m targeting Japan. I sell microwaves… they’re the bomb. They drop this summer.
Bounce this ain’t Craigslist.
most of these characters are in no way “freshmen”
they all wack exept for french montana, why no tyler the creator? danny brown,mackelmore,roscoe dash and kid ink WTF!!!!!!!
Another waste of time. The man Roscoe Dash is a still “freshman” after releasing platinum records over the last 3 yrs?? O_o No A$AP Rocky or Donald Glover? Lol. Boy I tell you, these “tastemakers” in hip-hop sure are on one.
Hands down the lamest cover in years. French Montana been in the game a minute ain’t he 30 something? How he a freshman? Iggy Azelel? She raps?? Ain’t heard shit from her. Hopsin decent. Mgk decent. Rest of these niggas ain’t important. How many ppl from the last mag are poppin off? Very few!
Hopsin >*
French took an L for this & how is Rosce a freshman, sure he fell of the map but he been had a run
HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED
No Jon Connor ? Absolutely horrible
Blue city club is the truth
Comparing to the last year, this year sucks a meat dick. Danny and Hopsin are the exception.
@streetorialist He said in the interview with DJ Drama he didnt want to be on the XXL cover he turned it down…
But on the real Mr Dash has 2 commericially released projects. he is not a fresh man
Wow HOPSIN & Azalea!
What a wackass line up. Only Danny Brown is good
This is the worst list ever, I doubt anyone on this will blow up. Maybe Kid Ink he got the most mainstream appeal
SCARY!!!!
…..SMFH!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
i think they reached out 2 asap and he turned it down,im sure others were reached out 2 as well…
Freshman 2010 was the best in recent memory
Lmao @ you niggas raging on the net.
Why is any attention paid to MTV’s or XXL’s yearly lists?
Chill though, i’ve NEVER even heard of Macklemore. Is he Mac Miller’s brother or something? Has RR ever even posted any of his music?
French Montana? This nigga got a decade in the game don’t he?
WTF? This list is wack ass fuck! No A$AP Rocky? Whoever made this list, KILL YO SELF!
they almost all got some industry experience…and wtf french got on his head ?? a dead cub ???
No A$AP Rocky, Chip Tha Ripper, Childish Gambino, or Stalley! EPIC FAIL!!!
so was this list put together by the MTv “Brain trust”
No Schoolboy Q, Jon Connor or Action Bronson????.. this list is invalid…. not to mention XV, ExSquire, Dom Kennedy, Stalley and ASAPRocky(though i reckon he’s gettin a solo jawn)
DANNY BROWN IS DOPE AS FUCK and Should have just had his own cover….or been on last year’s Freshman at least.
A bunch of bail jumpers on the cover of XXL.
Where’s Casey Veggies? Ay XV prolly like man I’m gonna next year lmao…
^ Holy shit I forgot all about Casey Veggies. Ha this this is wack as fuck.
Reblogged this on dublment.com.
Where is Snow Da Product smdh, I like Hopsin (Pause) and Machine Gun Kelly
HOPSIN > anyone else on this
@ Hip-Hop Fiend XV said that LAST YEAR! XXL stay foolish and Roscoe Dash must be taking remedial courses.
how the hell is Hopsin a freshman??
BOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Roscoe Dash had a hit song 3years ago
This is the Hip Hop is Dead cover of XXL
Where’s Jo Jo Simmons?
Wtf no ASAP, Action Bronson, Stalley? Only credible dudes on that list is Danny brown & Don Trip the rest of these fools are hot garbage!
@ Lucky P
You never heard of hopsin?
Hopsin dope as fuck
