XXL Freshman 2016 is coming and the freshman hopefuls are gearing up to possibly make this year’s class. With the 10th Spot voting happening now, we have to let the potentials tell us why they should appear on this year’s cover.

Up next is Young Greatness. Quality Control and Motown Records newest signee Young Greatness is ready to become New Orleans new rap star. He recently released his new mixtape I Tried To Tell Em, which features Quavo of Migos, Magnolia Chop, Sonyae-Elise and production by Jazze Pha, Cardo Got Wings, Nard & B, Honorable C.N.O.T.E and others. He has already collaborated with Meek Mill, Juvenile and Pusha T. Now the 28-year-old MC is ready to put on for his city. Watch above as Greatness tells us why he should appear on the coveted XXL Freshman list.

The 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.
