A few years ago some hip hop fans saw the genre as a dying fad because of the lack of new talent coming through the door. Now, with the help of newcomers like Kid Cudi, Asher Roth, and Charles Hamilton, hip hop is turning over a new leaf and fans are loving it.

Kid Cudi

Kid Cudi (a rapper, who unlike others, has not been compared to any other figure in the hip hop game) first appeared on the mainstream scene with his mixtape, A Kid Named Cudi, featuring D.C. rapper Wale. The tape caught the ear of hip hop hit maker Kanye West, who quickly signed the rapper to his G.O.O.D Music record label.

The Ohio rapper’s star really began to rise when he performed next to Travis Barker and DJ AM on the MTV’s 2008 Video Music Awards.

The world was officially introduced to Kid Cudi when he introduced the video for his debut single, Day ‘n Nite, on BET’s 106th & Park. He is also scheduled to perform at MTV’s 2009 Spring Break festivities.

Kid Cudi’s debut album, Man on the Moon: The Guardians, hits stores later this year.

Asher Roth

Asher Roth hails from the small town of Morrisville, Pennsylvania, but his impact on hip hop may be anything but small. With a style often compared to fellow white rapper Eminem, Roth has taken the genre and transformed it into something the masses can relate to.
