A word of advice to rappers trying to make it to the next level of hype on the net: don't use a roman numeral for a name. Seriously, how am I supposed to Google you and pretend to have known all about your freestyles for months before the mixtape dropped? Can't do it. Won't do it.
Luckily, XV (call him 'X tot the Vizzy' of you're not down with numerals unless it's at the end of a 'Saw' title...) has the talent to make him float to the top.
He wasn't on the XL 'freshmen' list. He hasn't been hanging out with Lil' Wayne all that much. He's just been releasing good tracks and people are starting to stumble over the towering amount of fans and admirers he's been able to gather so far.
Listen to Vizzy introduce himself:
