Even though you may not want to “Cash Her Ousside,” Bregoli has managed to turn viral ratchetness into a lucrative hip hop career. Lucrative enough have a song with Kodak Black and pay off her mom’s mortgage. Unfortunately for her, no matter how many singles she drops, we’ll always remember her as the “How Bout Dah” girl. Good luck in 2018, though.

Fatboy SSE @Fatboy_SSE

Fatboy SSE went from reckless Instagram kid to sipping Ciroc in Diddy’s office. We’ll most certainly see more from the 50 Central star this year. Talk about Black excellence.

Ryan Davis @RyanDavisComedy 

Ryan Davis came to prominence in the last couple of years with his hilarious commentary and roast sessions on Youtube. Davis is moving on up in the comedy world this year and recently graced HBO’s All Def Comedy stage. We can’t wait to see what this funny guy has in store.

Jasmine Brown is not new to this social media thing, but she sure is true to it. The South Florida beauty and aspiring actress is one of the funniest people you’ll follow on the ‘Gram. 2018 shall be bright for Jazzy.

Maleni Cruz and Chicklet HF

Maleni and Chicklet are the only couple to grace the list, but despite their relationship, both individuals get the streets talking on their own. You may know the viral couple from the hilarious video that surfaced earlier this year of Cruz shouting the lyrics to Cardi B’s “Bodak Yellow” in HF’s face. But things are only getting bigger and better for both Internet stars.
