too many, but the two i would say especially is Freddie Gibbs & Shawn Chrystopher. i live 15 mins from where gibbs is from (gary) & i know how tough it is out there & not to mention, he's got the music to back up my reasoning for wanting to blow up.
shawn chrystopher, just really relate to him, does everything on his own (produce, write, engineer, direct videos, do artwork, etc). he just linked up with timbaland & is dropping his debut retail album on july 23rd. shyt should be flame.
