Finally, 40 Glocc is one of the best true rappers in the West, but he appears to be cut from more of the "veteran underground artist" mold rather than the up-and-comer type that will likely break big. That said, he's pretty damn good. His song "Finer Thangzzz" was a true highlight on DJ Exclusive's Dretox mixtape and 40 Glocc has handled beats from the likes of Rick Rock, Dre, Havoc, and the Alchemist. So I'm not going to rule out a rise to prominence.

I definitely agree that Bishop Lamont is going to be the best up and comer. I would put Crooked I up there behind him. I know Crooked has been around for quite some time, but his debut cd should come out this year and hit strong. In my mind, Crooked I is the best lyrically. It's frustrating that all he has dropped is mixtapes. I think Glasses Malone is pretty overrated, but that production might help him out. Can't believe all those producers that Bishop claims he has. That should be unbelievable.
