March madness continues. Last Monday (March 1) XXLMag.com unveiled the cover for our April 2010 issue, featuring XXL’s new Freshman Class. Today (March 8), we drop another exclusive, as the 10 Freshman for ’10 Mixtape, hosted by DJ Whoo Kid, is released.

Cole, OJ Da Juiceman and Donnis. Whoo Kid already treated listeners to a few choice cuts off the tape this past Saturday (March 6) during his Sirius/Shade45 show, as the artists themselves called in for live interviews.
