25 Best Rappers 25 & Under by Complex Magazine
Complex Magazine posted their list of 25 Best Rappers 25 And Under a few days ago, and since you could easily visit their website for the complete list, I have decided to share with you my top 5 picks. Enjoy!
5. The 16 year-old rookie Chief Keef, best known for his track “I Don’t Like,” which features Kanye West and G.O.O.D. Music, is sitting in my number 5 spot.
4. The 24 year-old rapper Kendrick Lamar is taking the rap game head on with his tight flows and “on-point lyricism.” We’ll only be hearing more about him by the day as Lamar is currently working on his major label debut, Good Kid in a Mad City.
3. Meek Mill recently dropped Dreamchasers 2, which currently holds the spot as one of the hardest mixtapes of the year thus far. There is no doubt that the 25 year-old Philadelphia native is one the most highly-anticipated rappers in the game right now.
2. I’m sure it’s no surprise that the 23 year-old Detroit native Big Sean, signed to G.O.O.D Music/Def Jam, made the cut. This young man’s talent, confidence and swagger has him strapped to the rap game. I look forward to seeing what else he’s got once G.O.O.D. Music’s project Cruel Summer drops.
1. 25 year-old Brooklyn native, Theophilus London, has an undeniable talent and versatility when it comes to making music. He releases the unexpected and keeps the game fresh with tracks like “Humdrum Town” and “Big Spender (Feat. A$AP Rocky).”
I have a feeling my children will be fans of a few of these artists…so thanks for the heads up!
Chief? Well to each his or her own. In no particular order: Big Krit, Kendrick Lamar, Meek Mill, Quest, Logic
this is an awesome post. so much power to our generation. Theophilus London is one of my friends best friends and he is an incredible artist xx
Love love love London, downloaded his albulm last month!!! Thanks for sharing I’ll look these guys up too all of them <3
Lets see how many live to be 30 before being shot by fellow thugs.
very RnB
Good mix of rappers from different cities, at least in your picks for the top 3; but what cities are Kendrick Lamar and Chief Kreef from?
I had to reply to this as Kendrick is sitting in my top 3 at the moment. He is from Compton,LA and Chief Keef is from Chicago.
Thanks, xlrg

I really have to get back into the rap scene; ever since I started college, I’ve been so behind on popular music. Who’s your favorite rapper of all, though? I always thought that who your favorite rapper is says a lot about you.

Very subjective, I’ve been listening to every single of those for a very long time, I’m talking 24/7 dropped college and out of work guy. I got tired of them except for Meek Mill! Simply he’s honest and real!
Meek Millz should be #1 of those right now. He doesn’t make puns and jokes in his lyrics, and no singing. but he’s not there to say jokes, that’s as real as it gets, ready, hard and sober flow. WTF do the others talk about but getting money and f**king b!t&hes!! The rest of y’all WEAK-A$$-FAKE-SH*T !! Y’all N1kkas Ya’all B!T#HES xD! MeekMill #1
This is a just line-up. All these guys are talented!
