  1. K’Valentine

K’Valentine is on her way to superstardom. With Talib Kweli as her mentor and guest verses by legends like Twista she has officially been legitimized. Right now it’s just a matter of time. She probably has the sharpest pen and verses on this list, and her sex appeal just adds to the mix. She transitioned from spoken word to rapping and never looked back. K’Valentine recently opened up for Yasiin Bey, formerly known as Mos Def, in Chicago on the anniversary of a car accident she survived. That accident sparked the title of her most recent project Here for a Reason. Once you take a listen you will see what’s up.
