For the last month, Funk Flex along with the IFWT staff have went through all the up and comers that were making waves in 2011, and we have decided on 20 to watch for 2012. Each night this week, we’re going to post 4 out of the 20 and we will wrap it up on Friday. Be clear, this list is in NO PARTICULAR order! After announcing Jon Connor, followed by Chase N Cashe, and Chinx Drugz. Next up is Brooklyn’s own Troy Ave. He heated up the streets with his mixtapes and videos this year, and it’s definitely looking like it’ll be a big 2012 for him. Check out his exclusive track “Ain’t No Half Stepping” below!!
