It's time to analyze the sounds and styles of the new hip hop artist that produced splash last year. This artist is on a mission that mastered mediocrity. Here's the list of 10 hip-hop artists in 2010: Jay Electronica: Without an album to his label, Jay Electronica currently has artists from all over the States singing his praise. Nas, Just Blaze, and Bun B are only a couple of the respected hip-hop heads that openly cosigned the New Orleans lyricist. Jay genuinely has a possibility to blow up like Nitro and dynamite sticks (word to Biggie); J.Cole: J Cole boasts a powerful combination of street sensibility and crossover appeal. Think Jay-Z with a hint of AZ. As the first padawan recruited by Jedi Carter's Roc Nation, he's armed with the right marketing tools to produce a run for the top. The Force is strong with this one indeed.
Freddie Gibbs: Gibbs made some noise in 2009 with two brilliant mixtapes, The Miseducation of Freddie Gibbs and Midwestgangstaboxframecadillacmuzik. His sound hearkens to the times of hardbody beats and grimy rhymes delivered with such reliability that betrays familiarity with the criminal life; Drake: If achievement is a journey and not a destination, then Drake's next pit stop is to do with his debut album what he did with his So Far Gone mixtape. The "mixtape that sounded like an album" paid unprecedented dividends for this Canadian rap-R&B double threat. So Far Gone sold like hot cakes and sent two songs to the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Dessa: She released a book of poetry and prose dubbed Spiral Bound, followed it up with her debut album, and then toured relentlessly to promote both. Her capability to seamlessly merge spoken word, poetry, and emceeing into one big pot of gumbo is relaxing; Nipsey Hussle: Hussle is blessed with a bulbous snarl that hearkens to his Cali upbringing. And he knows precisely how to use his gift: kicking sharp rhymes over bass-heavy beats, crooning anthemic choruses, and sharply telling dark stories about his 'hood. His debut, South Central State of Mind, is due out in Spring 2010.
Cory Gunz: After a decade in the hip-hop wilderness, Cory Gunz is finally prepared to let loose. Unlike the Bow Wow and his ilk, which eventually appeal to the opposite sex, this teen titan is more considering spewing razor-shape rhymes like a young Big L. His Best Kept Secret mixtape is a must-listen for fans digging for lyrical gemstones; Hayes: Detroit newcomer Hayes incited an industry bidding war after circulating his demo through the streets. Hayes' storytelling (and ghostwriting skills) impressed Dr. Dre and Timbaland and landed him a joint deal with the two sound architects.
M.anifest: New hip hop artist M.anifest's hip-hop journey took him all the way up from Accra, Ghana to Minneapolis, Minnesota. His style hearkens to the smart lyricism of the Talib Kwelis and the Brother Alis. Unsurprisingly, he's immediately aligned himself with that brand by way of collaborations with Ali; Buff1: Buff has been working the underground circuit for a long time but it was 2008's There's Only One, fueled by its trunk-friendly single "Beat The Speakers Up," that gained him popularity. His subsequent venture is a collaborative LP with DJ Rhettmatic titled Crown Royale.
