Meet XXL‘s Class of 2018!
Hailed as one of the most definitive “who’s next” lists in music, the tally is one of the industry’s most coveted and this year welcomes the following;
Stefflon Don, Lil Pump, Trippie Red, Ski Mask The Slump God, Smokepurpp, J.I.D, YBN Nahmir, WIFISFUNERAL, and Blocboy JB.
While no doubt a huge honor for all, it’s especially noteworthy for Brit-Jamaican Steff, who serves as the issue’s only female and the first in three years to impact the list.
It comes on the heels of breakout success with global smash ‘Hurtin Me’ featuring French Montana and a slew of high profile collaborations with the likes of Ne-Yo and Demi Lovato.
Wonder what the buzz is about? More about the Don after the jump…
I’m sorry, but just who in da HELL are these people? They all look like those Worldstar videos I never click on lmao ?
Why do they look like the same person?
You’re not THAT girl.
-Azealia Banks

Yeah like lil Kim from 2000’s.. you’re right, they ALL going for that look.
What in the S****** Squad is this?
I just f****** screamed????
Cover looks super dusty.
I wished she didn’t always go for the female rapper starter pack look
This is terrible… should’ve had a doll or rico nasty
Bullcrap! Asian Doll & Ms. Banks both should have been included on this cover ! I cannot stand them only using one female rapper and 10 thousand dudes *sighs*
Rap is dead yall
That concept is beyond tired, they always choose 10 dudes who look and sound exactly the same plus one girl just to not seem overly sexist. Trash.
Who the f*** are those people? And why do they look like crackheads? They look so dirty that I wouldn’t like to be in the same room with them, cause I would be scared that their lice jump at me. And those names – I mean, rappers always had some stupid names, but Ski mask the slump god, seriously?
lmao ?
This us why female rappers cannot get along y in 2018 is there only 1 female rapper when so many r doing well now and making money
Xxl r sexist n should be boycotted
Where is Saweety? Cupcakke? Maliibu Miitch? Like Stephlondon is not even good. As far as the male rappers go I like Ski mask and J Bloc
