How crazy is it that a rapper featured on Lil Wayne's Tha Carter III in 2008 is up for a spot on XXL's freshman list seven years later? That's the case with Kidd Kidd, who's seen his visibility elevated in the last year by becoming G-Unit's fifth member, and is now doing his damnedest to bring in enough votes to nab the fan-decided tenth spot on the 2015 list. If you're still on the fence, he's shared a freestyle with the explicit purpose of drumming up support for his XXL campaign.

 If you like the sound of the Kidd going in over Jay Z's "Can I Live," vote for him here.

Quotable Lyrics

I'm on another level, I come from the ghetto
Black kettle, spit fire like a devil
Hidin' from Mr. Jekyll, can't block out the stir of echoes
Put more weed in my cigarillo
