Its funny that all the DC songs you listened to outside of funeral had that exact sound. I'd recommend Ghost Rider, Hello DC, the whole first part of My Own Worst Enemy and his 2019 music as it shows that it can be pretty different and that he has quite some versatility.
Dc got a couple styles though. He has like the heavy autotune singing like Funeral and the songs you mentioned. But he also has agressive rage type music like the first half of "My Own Worst Enemy". Then he also does rock influenced songs like "Ghost Rider" and "Jesus Cant Save You". He's incredibly diverse and has some stuff for everyone imo.
I know u said u only listened to a handful of songs for each artist, but I definitely would say check out more DC cuz he has lots of no auto mosh pit type music which I think also helps encompass the sound he has as an artist
Yeah he got songs like From The Gutta, Hello DC, Mr. Not Nice, Telfar and ENEMIES that are hard and moshpit-like so those are some recommendations I can give.
I was really hoping you’d like Tia. She’s prolly my favorite from the list, but I get it. Different strokes for different folks. Glad to see you giving GloRilla and Finesse some love tho!
I'm really happy you enjoyed DC The Don's music! I've been following him for a while because he was friends with another rapper I am really into, Sad Frosty, who unfortunately passed away quite recently. They've made a lot of songs together and it sucks to see that they weren't able to blow up like this together, but I'm still happy to see DC doing great for himself.
I listened to most of the artists on this list, except for Real Boston Richey (already knew he would be generic based off his look lol) and I like most of the people’s music or don’t have an issues with it. 2rare was the shocking one for me though, I thought he would be a street rapper, but he’s a hype dance rapper, which is cool. Overall, can’t wait for the freestyles or cyphers 🔥
btw Sprinter has been no 1 in the UK for the 3 weeks that it's been out and pulling hella numbers on yt and spotify + the songs central cee already has, he is definitely the most popular here
He by far the best and biggest artist on the list. I’d say he too big for this list it’s just niggas in the us aint gonna fuck w him cause he from England
I think what XXL should do is just divvy it up. 5 people who are more lyrically inclined and are bar heavy. 5 people who are more of a vibe type rapper. Just two cyphers. The people who gravitate towards the artists you can vibe to have their cypher, and the fans of a more lyrical hip hop have their cypher.
I know you said you only listened to a couple songs but you really should listen to a couple more of DC he's very versatile with a ton of different styles on top of that
Imma keep it a bean, (Implying that yhe max amount of ppl they wanted is 12) as much as i love Tia, I doubt she'd be on the list had Ice Spice accepted her spot.
Tia gon be like doja cat. That Bo time reminds me of the cow song and other stunts doja cat did. She made similar shitty music, the crazy makeup, and the experimental music. Once she finds that pop sound and a fan base I can see tia being jus as big as doja
Im just happy that DC finally getting some shine and some new eyes on him. I was so shocked when i saw him on the list Edit : and im glad u seem to like dc too lol
Disagree with the central Cee take, thought the same but he has freestyles and songs from eight years ago that has him rapping on actual American hip hop beats he just recently changed his beat 3 years ago even rapped on a beat that you wouldn’t expect him to rap on, on the ep with Dave “Our 25th bday” song
@@datboyy_taii and he the only one I believe who could do a great freestyle or Cypher cause as much as I like alot of their music lyrically they're are ass or just mid at best
ik you dont wanna hear this but it made me so mad that you happened to only hear the melodic dc songs💀 i usually prefer those typa songs from him anyway but his aggressive stuff is so hard. i recommend live from the gutta, red light, and enemies for a more aggressive style from dc
Amiri made SleazyWorld Go sound like Cleveland Brown! 😂😂🤣 Rob49 actually hard af! Ion think he fully ready just yet, but hes definitely up next! Just gotta stay out these streets!
I agree with the central cee take. I don't know if he's a good rapper or not because every song from him has the same beat that I hate. Little Simz is a dope UK rapper you might want to check out. She's dope.
the issue is rappers like little simz don't have that commercial sound like central cee even if she is leagues above him interms of discography and the best uk rappers like her are already years+albums deep into their career so xxl won't ever be for them. I love that even without america my favourite uk rappers able to tour the world because other countries realise how good the quality output is.
@@yxngd7201 I know that. He was saying he doesn't really like uk rap. As someone who also doesn't really like uk rap, I really like little simz. Just suggesting someone that may be palatable.
@@darnarxz Yehhh I think the only other rappers in the UK which could bridge the gap are people like simz, Lancey foux, still hoping artists like slowthai/loyle carner can bridge the gap to the US soon too
while i can’t say i’m shocked you don’t like tia since she’s kinda alternative in her rap style like rico, it’s crazy to hear you say she straight up trash bc i rock with her heavy 💀 but i can understand why you said it bc the way she changes her voice from song to song is very jarring at times
@@AmiriHipHop nahhh not all but i listen to more female rap than male. i think girls like latto and coi leray are mid, ice spice is trash imo, and i can’t get into glorilla to save my life. on this list specifically tia is the only one i actually listen to and outside of that i listen to like nicki, doja, rico, and megan the most.
Okay, Lola Brooke may not be as special or outstanding but she's still one of the hardest new school female rap MC's out here, especially compared to some other female rappers in this day and age. I'm sorry but your take on her really triggered me😭

I was thinking the same thing like bro literally chose the similar songs when he got so much range
I was thinking the same thing he chose songs that all sound the same

Yeah that’s what I’m sayin he mostly included the melodic rag3 kidd songs and not the Donny side of Dc
hes really versatile

I was really hoping you’d like Tia. She’s prolly my favorite from the list, but I get it. Different strokes for different folks. Glad to see you giving GloRilla and Finesse some love tho!
Nah fr, TiaCorine (IMO) is the best on this list so I was shocked to hear that he thought she was ass 😭
"UK rappers aren't my cup of tea."
I was wondering why he paused after that...but I just got that 😭
I thought I was the only one who caught it 😂😂😂
Nah fr i was like hold on he tried to slid that lil joke in 💀
I feel like sleazy’s voice is super eerily calm and uncanny and that shit kinda works for me but to each their own
same
Probably the best XXL Class since 2020 which may not say much but they are improving at least
I like Rob49 a lot. I think his voice is fire and his new album was pretty solid.
I think he will be better in future
Rob49 hard af! He definitely got next if he can keep his ass alive! And yes you did with him and Boston Richey so fucking hard!
😭😭you really had receipts for the Apex chant
When he pulled them out like we didn't trust him 😂. That's how earworms get us all tbf
Sus bars and he was playing the trans character too. 😂😂
@@justmike9358 That's top tier homophobia right there to even point that out lmao.
@@AmiriHipHop 😂😂 I’m playing man. I love my alphabet niggas.
@@AmiriHipHop Your comment must have scared someone off too. They liked and then unliked my comment. Lol
Dc the don from my city 😭 that’s crazy he on xxl I remember when he pulled up to my school with sad frosty
Yeah,even though I'm a fan of Drill rap.I can agree that 90 percent of the times it definetely sounds the same.
especially Bronx drill these days. using too much sample drill all the time.
18:22 HOPSCOTCH HAIR LINE HAS ME DYIING
I'm really happy you enjoyed DC The Don's music! I've been following him for a while because he was friends with another rapper I am really into, Sad Frosty, who unfortunately passed away quite recently. They've made a lot of songs together and it sucks to see that they weren't able to blow up like this together, but I'm still happy to see DC doing great for himself.
I heard about Boston Richey's paperwork before I heard one bar from his music. Just goes to show where hip-hop is in 2023.
Same lmao
I play Apex on the regular and that shit had me weak as fuck omg!!!😂
Great video bruh. Always love hearing your opinions and your impressions of artists😂😂
I’m glad somebody finally said something about drill music beats sounding similar, I stg shit irks me
Im still mad they aint let Dex on the 2017 cover. He woulda been PERFECT for the Carti, Ugly God, Tokyo, & X cypher
If He didn't punched and attacked his girlfriend XXL woudlve let him in the freshmen
I listened to most of the artists on this list, except for Real Boston Richey (already knew he would be generic based off his look lol) and I like most of the people’s music or don’t have an issues with it. 2rare was the shocking one for me though, I thought he would be a street rapper, but he’s a hype dance rapper, which is cool. Overall, can’t wait for the freestyles or cyphers 🔥
Fridayy always sound like he's a sample 😭
😹😹😹😹
Bro your first statement is facts, I've been saying this since they dropped the list! People always got something to say 🙄🙄
I'm still waiting on someone to make an Amiri reading lyrics compelation.
btw Sprinter has been no 1 in the UK for the 3 weeks that it's been out and pulling hella numbers on yt and spotify + the songs central cee already has, he is definitely the most popular here
He by far the best and biggest artist on the list. I’d say he too big for this list it’s just niggas in the us aint gonna fuck w him cause he from England

DC is literally the most versatile artist on this list he aint no uzi clone sound wise no more he's evolved way past that
My brother said he got Verizon he got boost mobile
I only know Rob49 from that song he had on Trippie's album. When i first heard his chorus he had me dying fr 😂😂😂
While you’re waiting for the xxl freestyles and cyphers to drop you might aswell do “am I sleeping on HOTBOII”
Thank you bruh toxic ish by 2rare has such an amazing beat but nobody knows about it
Good video, your opinion on rap are very interesting, can’t wait for more videos in this style from you
Damn I knew you was gon rock with DC… he been one of my top artist for years, he cool with the TH-camr Poudii, and Sad Frosty was his dawg fr
Calling 2rare hop Scotch hairline is crazy but funny asl
😂😂😂😂 oh my god I only knew 2tymes and I had to read the list to see glorilla I'm clearly living under a rock 🤦🏽♀️😂
"They've never really been my cup of tea" *pauses for laughter* 😂
Hello i enjoy your channel keep up the great work bro
the dudes from the block meme are actually in a collective with 2rare, they called 2humpy gang
That finesse2tymes line is hilarious
19:01 u on point w/ these boondocks references bro 😭
I know you said you only listened to a couple songs but you really should listen to a couple more of DC he's very versatile with a ton of different styles on top of that
TiaCorina’s song Freaky T sound like a Doja cat 😂😂😂😂
I rock wit lul tyler. His music is smooth
Imma keep it a bean, (Implying that yhe max amount of ppl they wanted is 12) as much as i love Tia, I doubt she'd be on the list had Ice Spice accepted her spot.
You gotta play the old Sleazyworld Go pre sleazy flow on the Detroit beats he was hard
5:22 I love the way they say music 😭😭
At 30:06 i think this was an inteprolation of an uzi song (Leaders ft nav)
Id recommend “Paranoid” by DC the Don
The TiaCorine part had me laughing out loud
TiaCorine is my fav on this list so i was honestly surprised that u didn't like her music 😭
Tia gon be like doja cat. That Bo time reminds me of the cow song and other stunts doja cat did. She made similar shitty music, the crazy makeup, and the experimental music. Once she finds that pop sound and a fan base I can see tia being jus as big as doja

Edit : and im glad u seem to like dc too lol
he trash, he need to go back to hooping
PAPAPAPAPOPPIN SHIT!
Glorilla my favorite out of all these, but I would say another five have at least 1 song or feature that I like
20:30 Got me fuckin dyin 😂😂😂 IYKYK

nah fr he's one of the few in the underground that can rap rap
@@cigmax fr this why I want him cause he won't embarrass the underground like the others would
Bro really had the accent for Finesse's part 😭😭Said "mursik"
I need Americans to move on from tea jokes 😂
That’s the way Lil Kim use to rap. When Lil Kim was rapping, her voice was a little bit deeper than an actual female rapper’s voice
i liked freaky t from tiacorine but i havent listened to more of her music and after this video i dont plan to lol
The way you said bunda💀
"Poppin 💩 you would think i went to skoo 🏫for chiropractin, feeling good as hell 💅💅💅💅did they just sent my nigga 🖐️ attachments?" lol
Yo i just started watching your vids and all i can say is keep going ❤
Bro holy shit I thought I was the only one who thought that way about drill beats
"I don't listen to UK rap, it's just not my cup of tea............" lmao
Every time xxl come around Amiri be ready ✍🏻 I remember that’s how da channel got started
I was surprised Central Cee made the list. He is way too big for XXL. He is a full fledge artist way beyond what this list could do for him
ik you dont wanna hear this but it made me so mad that you happened to only hear the melodic dc songs💀 i usually prefer those typa songs from him anyway but his aggressive stuff is so hard. i recommend live from the gutta, red light, and enemies for a more aggressive style from dc
I'm from NC, and never heard of Tia Corrine until today..

42 Dugg did like a decade or sum crazy span in prison. Guess they just don’t care no more
as a "fan" of rob and a guy who sees a lot of potential in him, i was personally hurt from what you said ab him.
The chalk 2rare got is sum ppl been doing in philly for a while Amiri😂 iont blame you for not knowing
12:20 nah what about it karate kid bro he sounds young asf
3:33 my favorite part lol
dc really really versatile u jus gotta keep listening check out mow3 whole album based off of 2 personalities and styles
27:01 u got the instrumental names bruh. Those were hard
0:04 I said it at the exact same time 😂
Cee and Glo finessed tf out the list🤣
You should’ve included some Donny songs when you covered Dc songs that’s like more aggressive and less melodic cause he really is versatile
