[J.U. ICE]

I'm gonna give you the thanks for putting some solid effort into a post. Something I lack nowadays. I'll just give a run down on each of the artists (less in depth than yours).

Ace Hood: I haven't listened to the dude much (that kind of music isn't really my steez), but from what I've heard, I can understand why he appeals to his audience.

Curren$y: Probably won't blow up, and like CK said in the other thread, he seems like more of a mixtape rapper, but all further judgements will be made when his new album comes out. The songs that have released so far sounded good to me.

Mickey Factz: I love Mickey (no homo). Goes in over some beats you wouldn't expect and brings something unique to the industry. Everything he puts out I like.

Asher Roth: When he first started to get noticed, yeah, he did sound like Eminem (not just because he was white). He kind of separated himself from that, and I'm starting to dig the material he puts out a lot more. I Love College is an awesome party song.

Charles Hamilton: I'm kind of in a love/hate relationship with him. Some of the stuff he puts out, I really like, and then there's some stuff I can't stand. A lot of people can't get by the voice, but dude's definitely got talent.

B.o.B. (aka Bobby Ray): Joins Mickey Factz in my top two on the list. Got his whole Andre 3K thing going on, and makes music that can appeal to everybody. Can't remember him ever dissapointing.

Kid Cudi: A bit of a drama queen, but at the end of the day he puts out good music. Been listening to him since A Kid Named Cudi dropped, and although he's starting to get a bit overplayed now with hits like "Day N Nite", I'm still a fan.

Corey Gunz: Haven't listened to a whole lot of Gunz, but he just seems like a freestyle/mixtape rapper to me. He's got a lot of talent, so he might be able to surprise me, but as it stands right now, that's how it's gonna be.

Wale: I think it was CK that put me on when he was going around rockin that "mixtape about nothing" sig. Can some of the Wale followers let me know where he's been. I could be completely wrong, but it just doesn't seem like he's been putting out much music lately. Is he working on an album right now or something? I want to hear more from him.. NAO.

Blu: I don't know why I don't give this guy a lot more plays. He definitely deserves it. He might be the best rapper on the entire list. I got Below the Heavens, Johnson & Jonson and Blu's V-Day mixtape there (I think it was from valentines day) and they're all dope, so check the dude out.

Not sure if I left anybody out, but whatever. I wasn't really trying to give you in depth info on the rappers. Just wanted to give my opinion on them.
