10. Lil Kesh
Has there really been a hotter street anthem than Lil Kesh‘s Shoki over the past year? Though it was released in 2014, the tune buzzed very well into 2015, when you have one the hottest tunes like that, along with a slew of other tracks you have to be in contention for one of the hottest rappers of the year. He’s also put out other hot street anthems, Efejoku, Gbese, and just recently, Is It Because I Love You, along with numerous high profile features with the likes of Iyanya, Samklef and Suspect. All in all, 2015 has been a really good year for Lil Kesh, now we expect the album in 2016.
9. IllBliss
Say what you want about iLLy, he’s one of the most super consistent rappers in Nigeria, steady putting in his work and staying true to his style. He has released a slew of tracks this year alone along with his 3rd studio album, Powerful, which many critics have rated as a solid piece of work. Some folks hate on IllBliss’s style of rap, but what you can’t hate on with IllBliss is his sincere flow. His style hits very well in the streets where it counts the most, and that’s why he’s always booked for shows all year round.
