Report Card Time

If you frequent this site you know about 75% of posts revolve in some way around the 09 crop of rappers. Supposedly other websites know about these guys as well and some dude decided to hand out some midterm grades for the kiddie-boppers. Click here to see the article or just take me at my word as I relay the grades on to you.

B.O.B.:A-
Wale:A-
Asher Roth:B+
Kid Cudi:B
Blu:C
Charles Hamilton, Currensy, Mickey Factz, Ace Hood, Cory Gunz- Who gives a fuck

It's pretty obvious he is grading mainstream credibility, otherwise giving Blu a C would be an outrage. Blu really has no aspirations to hit it big, but Below The Heavens will MOST MOST likely be the best debut from these rappers. Some of these grades seem a tad suspect to me. Putting Bombs Over Baghdad and Wale above Kid Cudi doesn't make much sense considering Day n Nite is tearing up the charts. None of their albums have release dates yet so the biggest hit should have weighed heavily in his grading. Asher has kinda fell off the face of the earth since his album dropped, but at least it came out. A second single has to start making some noise if he wants to stay relevant.

PS- How fucking hard did XXL drop the ball by not including Drake in their initial list?
