Although this list pretty much lost the majority of it's credibility with the decision to exclude J. Cole, Big Sean definitely deserves a spot on this years list after having a monster year.

"The biggest part of Big Sean’s rise over the past year has been the unwavering support of his fans. While he’s signed to a major label (Def Jam) and one of the brightest stars on Kanye West’s G.O.O.D.
