The 2017 XXL Freshman Class is expected to be announced later this spring. Until we get to see the magazine's final picks, they've given us a look at some of the many talented rappers (and singers) who are being considered for the cover. We saw pitches from the likes of Playboi Carti, PnB Rock, Ralo, and more earlier in the week, but the clips have continued to roll in since.
Some of those who have expressed interest in being a part of XXL's 2017 issue are 24hrs, Ugly God, Madeintyo, Mozzy, Hoodrich Pablo Juan, Kap-G, and Monty. While it's up to the magazine to select 9 promising artists, readers can also weigh in via The 10 Spot. You can vote for an artist to make the cut here. Strategically, voting for someone you feel may otherwise miss the cover would be your best bet.
