Breaking Through In 2010
Reader's Pick
J. Cole
When Jay-Z chooses you as the flagship artist of his new label, and gives you a guest verse on a track titled “A Star Is Born,” you can can rest assured that a breakthrough is imminent. Roc Nation standard-bearer J. Cole may be only a few mixtapes into his musical career, but tracks like “Lights Please” and “Unabomber” are proof that he's a force to be reckoned with. Fans can expect big things from Cole in 2010 – including, hopefully, a debut studio album.
Staff Pick
B.o.B.
How do we know B.o.B. will break through next year? Well, seeing him on ESPN before every bowl game is a good sign. The multi-talented B.o.B. is poised to make 2010 the year he becomes a household name, an artist who will won the love and respect of not only hardcore hip-hop fans, but music lovers nationwide. Don't believe us? Just watch him.

Again, two spot-on choices. See purists, the South has plenty hip-hop artists with true skill too!

B.o.B. will be huge, though I can see J. Cole making something of himself as well.
For the record, I didnt think the group of nominiee's were as strong as last years group |

I absolutely love and support all 5 names that were on the list, but I don't think I'm personally rooting for any other Hip-Hop artists than these three names:
1. Mike Dreams 2. XV 3. Novel #BeforeIDie I wanna hear a Mike Dreams and XV collabo with Novel on hook, produced by Michael "Seven" Summers. |

B.o.B is definitely the one I would have choose... I mean he carries a bundle of great attributes on the mic and HE CAN SING... I remember being introduced to him via Djbooth and thinking he was something special; I have to say though J. Cole is also a very good rapper who also produced something fascinating this year.
