    the same guy that was “freestyling” off his blackberry? rrrrrright.

    I hereby name Spin Magazine worst decision makers of 2009.

  7. isitimportant says:

    i dont understand how ppl can name these wannabe rappers as best rappers of such and such when em’s album eats up all the sales in 2009 and each track he’s on spreads like wildfire plus crack a bottle was on of the best seeling in itunes of all times and lil wayne begs the man to do a track and still no one mentions him as one of the greatest of 2009 no one of these new r&b rappers can match his skills, he doesnt fucking care and me too as long as he’s making the great music we hear and love even though twisted mostly in the past relapse and refill, but im just wondering >_>

  8. Toya says:

    Seriously? He has yet to put out an actual album yet he’s rapper of the year.

  9. Ty says:

    Dude went from an unknown to most anticipated artist within the year. I acknowledge and commend the fact. However, that’s a whole different thing from rapper of the year. I didn’t get mad at single of the year and mixtape of the year votes but this is a bit much. Let’s see if the nigga can make a decent album first. Leave the rookie SOMETHING to shoot for…….they’re givin’ him every accolade imaginable SMH

  10. Rhyme says:

    More label money being spent.

  11. bgirl says:

    He is NOT that good. People who think he is THAT good obviously don’t know shit about hip-hop.

  12. dani says:

    I don’t get the hype. His songs are, as Nsync used to say, “dirty pop.” And, he is UGLY AS HELL! Ugliest mulatto of all time.

  13. wow… I ditto almost all of the above comments^^^^ but y’all still buying his LP soooo. YAY YMCMB

  14. […] Drake ain’t the only light skinned Negro featured in the Jan/Fab issue of Spin. Here, Jermaine speaks on the pressure of handling the Roc. […]
