The XXL Magazine App caters to hip hop heads who like to drop rhymes and freestyle. Aspiring rappers or just huge hip hop fans alike can stay up-to-date and won't miss a beat with this industry-packed app.
Informative categories like 'Where They At' lets users find out which industry jam their friends are at. 'The Good Life' section shares the music culture's fashion trends and lifestyle. 'Tweets Is Watching' follows all the rap stars' Twitter accounts so you know what's going down with just one click. The most off-the-hook feature is the 'Ready Or Not' function where users can freestyle their own tracks which are then judged by hip hop artist Lloyd Banks. They also have a chance to be featured on the XXL website for incredible exposure of their musical talents.
While the XXL Magazine App also covers up-and-coming rappers, you, too, can become one of them and get a taste of the limelight.
