All this week, we announced our picks for the 20 up and coming emcees to watch for in 2012. Their spotlight on our blog doesn’t stop there, though. We’ll be following these rappers closely all year and will be posting everything they release, as well as some exclusive content as well. Congrats to all artists involved! Now continue to grind as hard as you’ve been! Hit the jump for the full list of our 20. Funk Flex Find Flex on Google+
(NEW MUSIC) #IFWT Chooses Their 20 Emcees To Watch In 2012! ROUND 5! @ChrisWebby
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! Announced on Monday were Jon Connor, followed by Chase N Cashe, Chinx Drugz and Troy Ave . Tuesday was Skeme, then Audra The Rapper and Maffew Ragazino. Wednesday was Lore’l then Neako and Smoke DZA. Yesterday we featured Dom Kennedy and Kid Ink, and now we’re up to Day 5…our last day. First up was Action Bronson and now CT’s own Chris Webby. The 23 year old white rapper from the suburbs single handedly created his own buzz and has a huge fan base, all while being unsigned. He’s definitely one to look out for this year!

The gourmet chef turned rapper works closely with Statik Selektah and having just got into the game this year, he’s already made quite a name for himself. He sent us over an exclusive track, the Statik Selektah-produced “Miss Fordham Road” of which you can get a snippet of below. Funk Flex Find Flex on Google+

For today’s first, we chose West Coast emcee Dom Kennedy. We reached out for a freestyle and got word back he doesn’t really rock with Flex like that! But here at IFWT, we judge by the music and regardless of personal beefs, we still feel he’s one to watch for 2012 so we’ll be keeping you guys updated with all of his latest work!
