Chief Keef Earns Number 11 Spot On XXL Magazine’s 2013 Freshman Class List



Chief Keef, whose rap career was nearly marred by legal woes, can smile a little bit.

The Interscope artist made the XXL Magazine 2013 Freshman Class at the number 11 spot.

The list usually features 10 up and coming emcees that have made noise on the music scene. But many may cried foul if the Chi town native was absent from the list. XXL decided to feature 11 slots in their “2013 Freshman” issue.

No other emcee in 2012 has been more controversial than Chief Keef. Chief Keef, whose birth name is Keith Cozart, rose to infamy following his response to the death of fellow Chicago rapper Lil’ JoJo.

“hahahahahhahahahahahahahaahhAAHAHAHAHA #RichNi**aShit,” Keef wrote. “Its Sad Cuz Dat N***a Jojo Wanted To Be Jus Like Us #LMAO.”





The death of Lil’ JoJo, born Joseph Coleman, came following a highly-publicized rap beef with Chief Keef’s Glory Boyz Entertainment associates Lil’ Durk and Lil’ Reese, who are both signed to Def Jam Recordings.
