Today, prestigious Hip Hop outlet XXL unveiled Lola Brooke as one of twelve artists for their 2023 Freshman Class. The print issue will be available on newsstands on July 18, 2023.
Over the next month, XXL will release freestyles, cyphers, interviews and more of all Freshman artists, including Lola. Pioneering producer Pi’erre Bourne will be the music curator crafting beats for the much-anticipated cypher.
In addition to the unveiling of the Freshman Class of 2023, XXL shared via their website “Staying true to XXL’s yearly tradition, the Freshman class for 2023 was selected based on the artists’ undeniable impact. Within every pivot hip-hop has experienced over the years, a crop of rising individuals proudly reach for and tightly grasp the baton. Narrowing down over 80 artists this year to 12, these talents have not only been the cream that has risen to the top, but serve as a representation of the current pulse of this year’s sound: inimitable, eclectic, vibe-y, nostalgic and damn good.”
