Texas rhyme streamer BigXthaPlug hasn’t slept a wink because he was rejected from Complex magazine’s “20 Best Rappers in their 20s” – the numbers in his bank account give him all the pleasant dreams in the world!!!
BigX and his The 6ixers rap group had some fun with TMZ Hip Hop in New York ahead of the release of its upcoming album “Take Care.”
The platinum seller tells us outright that he was aware of the list’s existence… much love to all those other guys, but BigX says he’s pocketing more money than them with his independent grind.
In other words, one list doesn’t stop its movement!!!
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram media.
His reaction was the opposite of NLE Choppa‘s, who almost blew a gasket because he wasn’t recognized as one of Complex’s young gunners next to him Playboi Carti, Ken Carson, Yes And Jack Harlow.
The hip-hop panelists are clearly not on the same page these days: BigX was crowned Amazon Music Rotation’s “Breakthrough Hip Hop Artist in 2024” during a surprise party at Los Angeles hotspot The Dime last weekend.
Playboi Carti is the BEST Rapper in his twenties 👑
Why he is number 1: @playboicarti has slowly built one of the largest modern rap catalogs while influencing an entire generation of up-and-coming rappers.

Saying that there are 25 up and coming rappers before him with such an award sounds like a contradiction on anyone’s part!!!
But BigX says he’s been too busy stacking his bread like a bakery and hasn’t managed to make many rap game friends… his album only has one feature!!!
He gets the chance to make the critics eat crow on Friday, when his project ends.
