For the last month, Funk Flex along with the IFWT staff have went through all the up and comers that were making waves in 2011, and we have decided on 20 to watch for 2012. Each night this week, we’re going to post 4 out of the 20 and we will wrap it up on Friday. Be clear, this list is in NO PARTICULAR order! Announced on Monday were Jon Connor, followed by Chase N Cashe, Chinx Drugz and Troy Ave . Tuesday was Skeme, then Audra The Rapper and Maffew Ragazino. Yesterday was Lore’l then Neako and Smoke DZA. For today’s first, we chose West Coast emcee Dom Kennedy. We reached out for a freestyle and got word back he doesn’t really rock with Flex like that! But here at IFWT, we judge by the music and regardless of personal beefs, we still feel he’s one to watch for 2012 so we’ll be keeping you guys updated with all of his latest work!

(Video) Auto Talk: 2012 Honda CR-V makes its commercial debut
The 2012 Honda CR-V went on sale last month, and in case you weren’t sure what to do with yours, two new ads want you to know that the $22,295 crossover is for getting your overdue dreams accomplished before ‘settling down.’ And that’s not just some dreams, that’s all of them, from seeing the Northern Lights to making a movie to lugging around a homemade, fighting robot. Presumably you can then put the same, robot-scarred vehicle into service for bride and baby. Funk Flex

Auto Talk: 2012 Porsche 911 Cabrio heralds U.S. product blitz with Detroit debut
Half a decade ago, Porsche thought so little of the Detroit Auto Show that it canceled its participation altogether. But the German automaker came back last year with the 918 RSR concept, and will use the show to unveil its new 911 Carrera Cabriolet to the public for the first time. Funk Flex
