On the set of GQ’s “Man of the Year” shoot: Drake, Kid Cudi and Wale

Every year GQ magazine features “Men of the Year”.

In 2008, President Barack Obama led the issue.

TheYBF.com reported that this year the magazine has mixed it up, giving three rising hip hop artists the single title: Kid Cudi, Drake and Wale.

Apparently Wale’s rep has confirmed it.

When I think of the freshest talent this year in hip hop, this makes absolute sense to me – what do you think?

Are you surprised that the magazine named these artists? If you don’t agree with their choice, let us know who you would pick!

Watch out for Wale on Jimmy Kimmel Live November 10th, which is also his album release date.

In Kid Cudi news, he is set to take Kanye West‘s place on the tour with Lady Gaga soon.

Drake’s album is set to be released in early 2010.

  • mike says:

    y isnt wiz khalifa in this group cause he way better den cudi n much fresher

  • Paul Rocks...Duh says:

    wiz khalifa doesn’t get as much exposure. He needs one of his songs in a game like saints row. Drake is better than Kid Cudi and Wale…really maybe when you don’t hear his songs on the radio. To me Drake just lets people punk him. I think LeBron made him put all of his(Lebrons) clips in his part of Forever in the music video. And let’s not get started on the best I ever had. The only verse i really like that he made was his part of forever and KanYe and Eminem still killed him.

  • [...] I-TIE Lotsa wordsa fa you! « Random…random… October 27, 2009 ◙   Drake, Wale and Kid Cudi are GQ’s ‘Man of the Year’.  Instead of one man taking the spotlight, this year [...]

  • BeatBabe says:

    I think Drake deserves it the most. He’s come a long way and it’s hard to establish a rep as sick as his when your start on Degrassi. GQ did right picking Wale, Kid Cudi, and Drake as “Man of the Year.” The real art of hip-hop is making a comeback and it’s about time somebody took notice.

  • DavE-40 says:

    I’m feelin’ Wale’s Nike Foamposite shoe, very sick shoe. Drake’s aight with the Timbs (very classic). As for Kid Cudi’s, im not really feelin’ his style. that has to go.
