The XXL Freshman list always seems to generate some controversy but, this year, there was no one who was doubting Isaiah Rashad deserved his place on the list. Just a few months removed from his debut EP, Cilvia Demo, the 23-year-old from Tennessee is already being being showered with praise from critics and hip-hop fans alike. But, just in case there are a few haters out there, Rashad has stepped in the booth for a 60 second acapella freestyle that he hopes will silence any doubt. Without an instrumental or visual backdrop, the focus here is on the lyrics. Spitting about fatherhood, inspiring others and his career, Rashad proves his versatility.
Did Isaiah live up to your expectations?
