Tokyo Jetz’s Pitch for 2018 XXL Freshman

Before the 2018 XXL Freshman class will be revealed this summer, the Freshman hopefuls are here to show and prove why they deserve a spot in this year’s class. The 10th Spot voting has officially launched, which means hip-hop's rising newcomers are vying for a spot on the 2018 XXL Freshman cover.

It isn't much of a stretch to say Tokyo Jetz has as much potential as anyone on T.I.'s Hustle Gang label. With fierce confidence and standout verses on Hustle Gang's We Want the Smoke album, the rising Jacksonville, Fla. rapper, who dropped her debut album, Viral in 2017, is always an entertaining listen. She has loads of SoundCloud streams, the mic skills and the label backing to take the next step, which, in this case, involves being a possible 2018 XXL Freshman.

Now that you've watched her pitch below, it's time to vote. The 2018 XXL Freshman 10th Spot will run for one week. This is where the public gets the chance to vote an artist into the XXL Freshman Class. Go here to make your vote count for your favorite artist.

Once you've voted, head over to XXL’s YouTube page to take a look back at the 2017 XXL Freshman Class, which featured A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Aminé, Kap G, Kamaiyah, Kyle, Madeintyo, Playboi Carti, PnB Rock, Ugly God and 10th spot winner XXXTentacion.
