9 To Watch In '09: The Final Four

by JOKESTA

MONDAY SEPTEMBER 15, 2008

Alright so I made you guys wait a week for this when I said I’d post them last Wednesday, but I got distracted with all those photos that hit the web of rappers wearing gear nothing short of ridiculous. So to recap, this is the final four  newcomers you should be watching next year.

Here’s a quick rundown of the first five:


9. Nino Bless
8. GemStones (A.K.A. Gemini)
7. Charles Hamilton
6. Corey Gunz
5. Nina B


#4 Mickey Factz


Coming in at number four, we have another Bronx native by the name of Mickey Factz. You may ask yourself why Factz is so high up on the list--and the answer is simple. His style is unique, far beyond that of any of the aforementioned rappers.

As he explains it, his style--”uber music,” is a mixture of genres combined with clever lyrics and wordplay.

“The music my generation and younger are listening to has expanded beyond funk and soul, we're listening to rock, electronic, house and so forth. I'm always going to be clever with the wordplay and lyrics, but very few rappers can do that on a Royskopp record. That's the lane I ride in. I'm going to do me, and trust, you'll love me for it" says Mickey.

Rumor has it Mickey is currently in talks with a few major labels including Duck Down Records.

#3 Wale


In the third slot is Washington DC’s Wale. The Interscope records  is sure to make  noise in 09’ as he preps his first major album.

He’s currently hitting the airwaves appearing on Solange’s “Fuck The Industry,” and can be accredited with being one of the few rappers to successfully tackle Lil Wayne’s “Mr. Carter.”

He has appeared on tracks with The Roots, Chrisette Michelle, and Rhymefest.


#2 Asher Roth


If you ask a Hip Hop fan what is something the music is currently lacking at the moment, you’ll probably get a bevy of answer ranging from “Lyricism” to “getting rid of t-pain and that god damn auto-tune.” I say, Hip Hop is in dire need of a clown--and that clown is Asher Roth.

With his skillful wordplay and playful lyrics, Roth has definitely grabbed the attention of many and reminded us of the early days of a certain rapper on many of our Top 5 Dead Or Alive Lists.

What’s so refreshing about Roth? Well for one, he’s not trying to be much outside of what he knows and is still managing to show off major skills ---even when speaking about how much he loves college.

Look out for Roth in 09 as he is sure to burst onto the mainstream scene in a major way.


#1 Wiz Khalifa


Finally at number one we have an up and comer who burst out onto the scene with one of the summers biggest hits, “Say Yeah.”

Khalifa has shared the stage with artists such as Ghostface Killah, Styles P, Lupe Fiasco, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Cham, Little Brother, Clipse, Lil Wayne, Young Jeezy, Lil Scrappy, Mario, T.I., Nas, and Rich Boy.

He is currently working on his Warner Bros’ debut album First Flight.



Honorable mentions go to the following:

Kidz In The Hall

Drake
Kid Cudi
Lady Luck

Some of you wondered why artists such as Joell Ortiz, Saigon, and Crooked I didn’t make the list--and the answer is because they bursted onto the scene in late 06, early 2007.  Hell, most of them were featured on XXL’s Leaders Of The New School article LAST year.

As far why I put Nina B ahead of rappers such as Charles Hamilton. I think the Hip Hop industry is in more need of a talented female rapper than a Kanye West clone.

Oh yeah, follow me on twitter bitches! Get some live blogging going in your life: @defsounds

And I'm thinking of doing my next blog in Auto-Tune...thoughts?

I agree with Loc G.. Wiz Khalifa? Never heard of this kid.
One of the summer's biggest hits? WHERE?
Certainly not the radio, certainly not BET or MTV
Biggest in his town maybe

Matter of fact, he only charted on the "Rhythmic contemporary" charts, 25 out of the top 40.

Trash me if you want to, but wtf am I wrong about?

Wale certainly gets that #1 spot in my book.
I've actually seen Wale in regular magazines and media like The Washington Post, Entertainment Weekly, and Rolling Stone
Not just XXL and The Source

This is more of a newcomer list, rather than an actual "9 To Watch In '09". I think Joell Ortiz is someone who is definately gonna be a mover & shaker in '09. You don't put him on the list because he has already been around for a while, which is why I say this is a newcomer to the game list. Doesn't make much sense though to put Lady Luck as an honorable mention, on this newcomer list when she came out as part of "Def Jam 2000". PEACE Come check out The Livin' Large Morning Show Hip-Hop/N.F.L. Special w/ Bobby Livin', and Tony Large Sundays 11am-1pm EST at www.clubmegamix.com. You'll like it.

Furhtermore, Wiz might have SHARED the stage with those artists, but how many has he actually done songs with? How many have shouted him out?

Wale got shouted out by Grafh.

Wale has done songs with people from The Roots to Lil' Wayne to Travis Barker.

Further argument for Wale taking that #1 spot.
I'd watch Wale, not Wiz.
Wale has more buzz, great potential, already put in plenty of work.

Skyzoo, Ya Boy, Torae, all deserved a look. Torae at least a honorable mention, Skyzoo deserved to be in top 4, Ya Boy should be over Wiz Khalifa and Nina B. Asher Roth doesn't deserve to be on this list he is horrible, Charles Hamilton is horrible as well. Wale deserved his spot, Cory and Nino should have been higher. Drake should have made the list without a doubt along with Red Cafe and if your going to mention a female Nicki Minaj is doing way more than Nina B.

My Nigga put Lady Luck up there as an honrable mention...

Isnt she the chick that got Sonned by Remy Ma on Fight Klub?

Man that Wiz shit on the radio was mad goofy to me...niggas could barely catch the beat in the booth, much less shorties dance to it in the club...Wale should be way higher...maybe 1 or 2...my homeboy is a DJ and I got like 3 Wiz mixtapes...nothin too hot...what about B.O.B.?!?!
