MTV’s Hottest MCs List….hmmm, I gotta disagree with #3
Posted by Miss Info under Uncategorized[161] Comments
So far the list is…
10 Jim Jones
9 Common
8 50 Cent
7 Jay-Z
6 Jeezy
5 Kanye West
4 Andre 3000
3 The Game (huh?)
2 TI
1 Lil’ Wayne aka Weezy F Baby Please Say the Baby
……
and I’ll share the rest when it airs on saturday, I dont want to be a spoiler. But I will say, #3 is absurd, lol….in my humble opinion. But that’s the beauty of what the MTV hip hop braintrust is doing….they’re putting their opinion out there, and sparking passionate debate. There isnt going to be a single person in the world who agrees 100% with them. In fact, within the show each person walks away thinking the rest are wrong. Isnt there a saying that a fair compromise leaves everyone a little bit dissatisfied? lol….
And I definitely respect a bunch of the folks in the MTV braintrust and they have the right to their own picks, it is their list. Or, in the immortal words of Pimp C….”feelings are like booty holes, everyone got their own fit.” (wait, a second, what exactly does that mean?…..uh, it sounded good but now that I think about it….hmmm)
One other thing….the problem with hotness as it relates to hip hop…whatever it is at the time, it wont be 5 minutes from now. So if you tape that debate a few weeks ago, yeah 50 Cent was ice cold. Now that he’s dropped “I Get Money…” his temperature has changed, no?
And that’s true for every artist. We live in an age of singles and remixes. sigh.
The full debate show comes on Sunday at 2pm on MTV2. Make sure you check it out. And then go out to the Rock The Bells show, The Rock Steady Anniversary show, or the Wild Style Anniversary. (if you’re in the tristate, obviously)

hey miss info i just wanted your opinion on the list so far. it’s supposed to judging from whats hot right now right?
July 28th, 2007 at 4:31 am
That list is wack. It wasn’t even based on skills. It was more on image. I seen them trying to decide between Nas and Jim Jones(LOL thats krazy). My guess is #1 is Lil Wayne. T.I. is somewhere on there. I hope Lupe is on the list. He’s better than alot of those guys
July 28th, 2007 at 4:58 am
Jim jones should not be in the top 10 or 20 or 30 or 40 ect….he’s had 2 hits and has not sold as many albums as the other top 10. This ranking is all jacked up…
Let the debate begin………
July 28th, 2007 at 5:01 am
What da hell is Jeezy and Jim Jones doing in this top 10? Hellz nooo. This ranking has no credibility.
July 28th, 2007 at 5:35 am
Jeezy ahead of jayz???? wow im not goin to watch dat show now
July 28th, 2007 at 7:30 am
Yeah, the bottom half of the list alone is beyond suspect so the top half must be a real complete waste of thought and airtime. Ballin’ was hot and all but Jim Jones is at this point a one hit wonder and shouldn’t even be on the list — unless he has a fire mixtape out that’s some serious underground heat that I haven’t heard. I’ll wait to see who’s in the top half of the list before I decide if Common, 50, Jay, or Jeezy were seriously wronged. I’m sure TI will be crowned king just because he has had a really good year (but I’m sorry, although its catchy, big things is his least intersting song in a minute, imo). Lil Wayne ain’t all that, imo, but because the yonger set really likes him, I’m sure he’s up there too. But I agree missinfo, by doing the list based on current hotness and not the ability to produce at least one good album, this list is already rendered obsolete. They should stick to doing the all-time greats list only (and they even messed that one up to me). Let the sales, downloads, etc, determine the hotness of todays artists. Those are the ultimate predictors anyway. So why are they even doing this again?
July 28th, 2007 at 9:12 am
10. Young Jeezy
9. Kanye West
8. Juelz Santana
7. T.I./T.I.P.
6. Cassidy
5. Nas
4. Jay-Z
3. Lil’ Wayne
2. Eminem
1. 50 Cent
July 28th, 2007 at 10:25 am
MTV needs to stick to Hilary Duff and My Chemical Romance. They are NOT hip hop. Shaheim is like the only decent writer they have. Everyone else is pop/rock/crap and that includes you too Sway!
July 28th, 2007 at 11:46 am
You can’t be serious with this list.
I’ve been silent a long time on this blog, just reading people’s reaction to the posts.
This is one I thinnk everyone should speak out on. I know you didn’t put this list together info because your Hip Hop IQ is more advanced than a lot of people (except myself of course).
First of all….Jim Jones should not even be on the list period. His lyrics are not in the top 15. However, this is not a best lyricist list…it’s based on which MC is the hottest.
I would say Jim may be in the top 10 as far as the hottest MC.
Since we’re going by who’s the hottest…I would have to say that 50 should be at the top because of the “I Get Money” hit (mega NYC remix coming up with Banks, Maino, Fabolous, Mazaradi Fox, Yayo, LL Cool J and more!!!)
Jay should be 5 or 6 because he’s not really that hot right now. Jeezy is hot so he should be in the top 5 along with T.I.
Fabolous is also hot and should be top 5.
#1 is more than likely Lil Wayne and Kanye should round out the top 5 with the 3 or 4 spot.
This is just my opinion….
I don’t really like Lost…wasn’t able to keep up with it…
I love Survivor, Big Brother and Apprentice for reality shows. The Real World is another one of my personal favorites.
July 28th, 2007 at 1:54 pm
They makin ludacris look like a real busta but thats only because his single isnt being pushed out like that but its still better than alot of other peoples songs…but in that case…shouldnt FABOLOUS be at least on the list? He has a hot album and one of the hottest joints out right now.
July 28th, 2007 at 1:57 pm
lol I bet # 3 is lil wayne ( i have respect ofr this dude) anyways ARE THEY SERIOUS? This list must have been only for the month of June. They buggin’ out over there. Jim Jones…i odnt think he belongs on that list. young jeezy b4 Jay and fif…no wayy
“i’m looking for that white chick, christina aguilera”??? I think that there was some bias in there choices. Like instead of looking at the music they look at the person. And if Game is on this list then you know for sure there was bias and some hating going on because dude doesnt belong.
can u please e-mail the rest to me miss.info cause i gotta go to a party tonight and this is gonna ride my head
July 28th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
JIM JONES – That’s laughable – He has no skills.
July 28th, 2007 at 3:40 pm
@ Boggie… you are soo right dude.
July 28th, 2007 at 3:48 pm
Ya’ll chill and don’t even give this a second thought. MTV’s top hip hop lists (past, present, future) are never ever to be taken seriously. As someone stated above, MTV IS NOT hip hop. Their lock stock and trade is promoting Hillary Duff’s crappy pop brand to a bunch of tweens.
July 28th, 2007 at 3:58 pm
10.)Jim Jones
9.)Common
8.)50 Cent
7.)Jay-Z
6.)Young Jeezy
5.)Lil Wayne
4.)Nas
3.)T.I.
2.)Eminem
1.)Kanye West
^^^^^I thinks thats the full real list.
Anyway……It seems like if they’re going for the hottest currently, Em shouldn’t be on it and the dude who just sold over 400k his first week should be number 1 and the dude who is featured on half the songs you hear on the radio as number 2 (TI and Lil Wayne).
July 28th, 2007 at 4:23 pm
Does it even matter? lol.
People should like who they like, and leave it at that. Why even debate this crap?
Who cares what MTV thinks? MTV is a machine that is ruining society.
How about a top ten list of the shallowest shows they’ve created.
Now THAT would be a challenging list to come up with!
July 28th, 2007 at 4:54 pm
HAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! Having Jim Jones on the list completely discredits anything that could be put on there…anything at all…Jesus couldnt save this list after putting JJ on there…that aint ballin’.
July 28th, 2007 at 5:22 pm
I take it for being the top 10 of Today’s rappers…I KNOW EMINEM AINT GONNA BE ON THERE, CAUSE BESIDES THE FACT SON CAN’T RHYME, HE AINT HAVE SHIT OUT SINCE WHEN??? But anyway…You all have to remember this is a matter of opinion…what they feel is the top 10,….understand?…what they feel! Not necessarily what you feel. I tend to listen to a lot of people to see where their mind is in terms of hip hop….so many people are str8 up lost. In my generation, hip hop was breakdancing, graff writing, dj’ing. Rappers werent even out like that back then, it was just emcees givin dap to the DJ(THEY WERE MIC MEN), what I see today…is kids getting in to hip hop and there is nothing out there EXCEPT rap music, all the other components have basically been erased. It’s purely a desire to DEVELOPE a scary image by talkin bout how rich, and murderous you are…which is sad….NAS WAS RIGHT HIP HOP IS DEAD, AND THOSE WHO DONT LIKE THAT STATEMENT…FUCK WHAT YOU DONT LIKE…LOL
Y’ALL DONT WANNA BE B-BOYS….Y’ALL WANNA BE THUGS..SO LEAVE HIP HOP THE FUCK ALONE! PUT THEM FUCKIN MIC’S DOWN.
July 28th, 2007 at 5:54 pm
What ya’ll think ’bout my top ten?
10. Kanye West
9. Juelz Santana
8. Fabolous
7. T.I./T.I.P.
6. Cassidy
5. Nas
4. Jay-Z
3. 50 Cent
2. Eminem
1. Lil’ Wayne
July 28th, 2007 at 6:39 pm
now that i think about it…this is just a waste of time because u might as well just say what are the hottest songs right now…not the hottest MCs
July 28th, 2007 at 7:55 pm
The people that made this list are so dumb. How in the hell do u put 50cent in number 8, and then jay z at number 7.And also they put young jezzy’s ass over jay z and 50 cent. Wow thats believable. And what is Jim jone doing in the top ten and i will go crazy if they put Kanye west in the top 5.
July 28th, 2007 at 7:57 pm
The whole list already got screwed up when they didnt put 50cent and JayZ in the top 3. Right miss info.
July 28th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
lil wayne is gonna be 1# i cant stand that guy like 50 said he’s a (whore)
July 28th, 2007 at 9:41 pm
this list is absurd
July 28th, 2007 at 11:26 pm
hey miss info…
you are hitting the nail on the head with these posts and i’m completley diggin’ your website…but this post makes me almost give up hope on hiphop my first love and maybe humanity….
young jeezy….wtf? jim jones…nails scratching chalk board….
is it now that the newest people in the game who really don’t demonstrate any reliable,uniquity in rapping just are considered better than the ones that actually diserve it….
sorry I must be late on the memo….
my list goes:
k-os
kanye west
nas
jay-z
eminem
50 cent
common
game
cassidy
foxy brown
that’s just really how I feel, I think a true emcee, rapper is someone who can take pretty much anything and make it something you can bump….and how easy is it to drop a n* bomb in a song?
just my opinion,but missinfo, keep on doing ya thang and bringin’ the heat and fabness…
July 28th, 2007 at 11:28 pm
1. and 2. (tie) Kanye and Lupe
3. Common
4. Jay
5. Wayne
6. Andre 3000
7. Talib
8. Chamillionaire
9. Mos
10. Em
Jim Jones? 50? TI? Jeezy? Haha…YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. I’ll put them in my Top 10 list…of MCs to poop on (pause).
Holla back.
July 29th, 2007 at 12:05 am
Jeezy before Jay-Z, 50 Cent and Common?????…OMG…That is so beyond me…That debate must’ve been very interesting…I’ll definitely be tuning in…I’ll save the rest of my comments until I see the show.
July 29th, 2007 at 12:09 am
that list is complete bullshit. if they hink jeezy is better than common they must suffer from insomnia or somethin. if lil wayne is #1 I will be very upset
July 29th, 2007 at 12:50 am

July 29th, 2007 at 1:50 am
I mean, going off the hottest MCs, the list so far is on point
i mean, JIM JONES is on damn near every remix thats coming out now…i wouldnt be that extreme and call him a one hit wonder, he does have some tight tracks on his album, mainstream wise nah, but i know people from every region who bump a diff track of his
jeezy name is out there, he got buzz
Hov, i dont know why he’s on the list, if it aint judged as a greatest of all time…..he’s not poppin right now and his last album was weak….i think people just refuse to have a MC list and not put his name on it…..but Hov earned that respect and no one should knock him
Common got decent music, his name is out there right now….and he does have respect from the rest of the game…so i can see why he’s on the list
i still havent heard about I get Money from 50 gettin THAT much hype…50 fell off to me, his hunger is obviously gone and he’s music quality is suffering cuz of it
i see the top half as containing kanye, lil wayne, and ti
#3 is probably that weak ass yung berg nigga
July 29th, 2007 at 3:00 am
Jim Jones # 10? Lil Wayne on the list?
July 29th, 2007 at 3:00 am
Jim Jones isn’t top 100. And if Jay-Z is that low.. who is the top 5!!!??? Jeezy over Jigga is ludacris.. and Ludacris better not be higher than Hov either!
July 29th, 2007 at 5:39 am
i have a feeling #3 is rich boy
July 29th, 2007 at 5:55 am
jim jones jeezy and 50 cent???um wtf? then they threw common in there to try to salvage credibility. lol. only two names that belong there is jay-z and common. anybody with jim jones on their top 5 or 10 rapper list should go kill themself. just why i only watch two-a-days on music fucking television.
July 29th, 2007 at 4:03 pm
They need to make up their minds as to the criteria. If you gonna talk about who’s name is in the streets for whatever reason and not lyrics, talent, etc., then I can see how Nas got bumped. And let’s face facts, Jim Jones should be higher on the list.
If you’re gonna talk talent wise, then Jim Jones shouldn’t even had a card made for him. Right now, rap music is at a crossroads – between dance music one hit wonders and proven vets. I’m hoping Kanye wins the 9/11 war and Common smokes everyone with “Finding Forever”. Still, leave it up to the kids and you’ll see people who should’ve never gotten a contract like Unk, Huey, and the rest of these no talent hacks get record and video deals that get played constantly on video shows. The streets ain’t dictating what’s hot anymore – the corporations are.
July 29th, 2007 at 4:19 pm
hey miss info !
i love your blog ! i can’t tell you everything i want to tell because i’m french and i don’t speak english very well but i can say that i’m very disagree with the list ! 50 #8 ? Young jeezy #6 ? what’s this !? THEY aren’t’ SERIOUS !!!

July 29th, 2007 at 6:36 pm
lmao @ Game being on the list. they contradicted themselves by putting game on the list. First they talking about swagger, rapping skills, commercial and then game?
Lil wayne is #1 one right now, honestly.
What about Fab??? FAb should replace Game at number 3.
they said that it is the hottest rapper right now, well in that case Game shouldnt be on that list, hello. dude has been hiatus
Game is not HOT right now. though he could put out a new song tomorrow,but it aint out yet. They were bias in their decision
July 29th, 2007 at 6:42 pm

I almost lost my mind when i saw all these rubbish ‘artist’ in the top ten . . . but i kept reminding myself that this is the 10 ‘hottest’ rappers at the moment. I guess I dont have any big problems with the list, besides all these scrubs ahead of jay . . . No Nas? no way . . . oops, yea, its the hottest right now, I keep forgetting, sorry.
July 29th, 2007 at 7:50 pm
# 1 -JAY Z-UNTIL SOMEONE KNOCKS OFF THE CROWN ITS STILL HIS(i KNOW HE DOESNT HAVE ANYTHING OUT RIGHT NOW)
# 2-LIL WEEZY-LETS SEE HOW LONG HE WILL LAST AT #2
# 3-KANYE-I DONT LIKE STRONGER BUT I LIKE CANT TELL ME NOTHING
#4- ANDRE 3000-HES COMING OUT WITH A SOLO AND OUTCAST ALBUM SOON
#5- NO OTHER MC IS WORTH MENTIONING RIGHT NOW
OTHER NOTABLES-I CANT REALLY JUDGE TI BECAUSE I DONT REALLY LISTEN TO HIM-HIS LYRICS BORE ME.COMMON IS IN THE TOP 10.IF 50 CENT COULD STOP RYMING ABOUT HIS BANK ROLL HE COULD BE #1.I DONT HEAR ANYBODY CHECKING FOR GAME RIGHT NOW.EMINEM HAS RETIRED.NAS IS OFFICIALLY OLD SCHOOL.LUDACRIS,YOUNG JEEZY,FAT JOE,JUELZ AND CAMRON HAS GOOD SONGS BUT LYRICS ARE MEDIOCRE.FABOLOUS BE HOT BUT THEN HE DISAPPEARS FROM THE GAME AND I CANT PUT MY FINGER ON IT BUT HES MISSING AN INGREDIANT.CASSIDY REMINDS ME TOO MUCH OF CANIBUS.JIM JONES IS NOT AN MC,HES A HOT RAPPER RIGHT NOW BUT NOT AN MC.THERES A DIFFERENCE.SAIGON ,PAPPOOSE AND JR WRITER ARE DYING FOR A HIT.CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHERE THE HELL IS JADAKISS?
July 29th, 2007 at 7:55 pm
WTF? Game #3!!!!!!!!! T.I. should have been #1, Wayne #2, Kanye #3. Game should have been #10 if anything, and Jim Jones has 2 hit songs and he is on the list? These people are clowns! They don’t know zip about hip hop. If they were going off of “who is hot now” where was Fabo? Rick Ross? They could have knocked a couple of folks off the list. And Andre 3000? I like him and all but he is not the hottest “right now”!

WTF are they thinking over there….this guy went from selling 4 million units to being stuck at around 900,000 units total for the second album (No matter how much he tries to say it went platinum- It didn’t)…Daz over a 75% DECREASE….If 75% less ppl buy ur album it’s because ur falling off…….as for the rest of the list 50 should be in T.I’s spot(#2)…T.I should be in games spot(#3)…..and Fabolous should be in the #8 spot.
July 29th, 2007 at 9:27 pm
where is lupe…?
July 29th, 2007 at 10:44 pm
jim jones over nas?? how does that happen. I mean even with the hot RIGHT now. the buzz that nas recieved over just the title of his album was greater than any other “ballin” pose or tired street fashion jim jones supposedly started. The debate sparked over the album title will hold presence in hip hop history.
July 29th, 2007 at 11:08 pm
Damn info your kind of off. Although you may not like the game and we all no you dont from the past he is still hotter than anyone accept the 2 above him. So hate the player not the game.
Peace
July 29th, 2007 at 11:09 pm
Info Step your game up shit.
July 29th, 2007 at 11:16 pm
I respect MTV for trying, but this list is RIDICULOUS! Lil Wayne?? anyway heres a REAL list of the hottest MCs:
10. Nas
Of course Nas is one of the greatest of all-time, that’s not a
question…but this question is who’s the hottest right now so
unfortunately my man is only finishing out the top 10. With the most
controversial album title (Hip-Hop Is Dead…The N) of the past year,
signing with Def Jam, and making a song with arch enemy Jay-Z, Nas is undoubtedly still hot.
9. Jim Jones
Noticed your favorite rapper wearing smaller shirts & wallet chains
::cough:: Lil Wayne ::cough::?? Well this man is the reason why. Jimmy
started this whole Rockstar movement stuff and made it cool to dress like some of your white classmates did back in 1995. Not to mention he had the hottest single of the past year (“We Fly High”), most OD’d on ad lib (BALLLLINN!), and some
of the best and most entertaining interviews Hip-Hop has heard since its
death sometime around 04-05…and yes people, it did die!
8. The Game
Pretty quiet resurfacing for The Game & his sophmore LP Doctor’s
Advocate… no Dr. Dre on the album didn’t help much either. Yet and still, his
album banged as promised and went platinum, but unfortunately for The
Game, Jay-Z’s Kingdom Come followed only one week after. Game gained a
bit more buzz when his Kanye assisted, and highly controversial “Wouldn’t
Get Far” dropped. Then came the Vida Guerra beef and the beginning and
end of her rap career! No doubt Game is one of the best MCs lyrically
but as far as being hot he only ranked 8 on my list.
7. Lil Wayne
Easily the most dickrode person in the industry, Lil Wayne has flipped
stealing his rap style, and appearance, and a love affair with his
“daddy” into a legitimate rap career. With no album in the past year,
Wayne has stayed hot by musically whoring himself and being disposable to
the nearest paying artist. Nevertheless, no matter what he says (however
much sense it DOESN’T make) or does (however much ummm.. opposite hetero
it may be) he maintains a legion of fans willing to defend his
questionable lyrics, and suspect ways by any means possible which makes
him hot artist #7.
6. Young Jeezy
Young Jeezy has never been the rapper to blow you away lyrically but
with his command over the streets, he managed to stay hot both coming
into, and throughout his sophomore set “Thug Motivation 102: The
Inspiration.” Fresh off a less than stellar U.S.D.A. group album, Slick
Pulla & Blood Raw helped us quickly realize who the only star or talent is
over at Corporate Thugz Entertainment. With the hoods support and
production worthy of a legend, Jeezy holds down the #6 slot.
5. Ludacris
Still vying for that #1 spot, Ludacris dropped one of his dopest albums
damn-near effortlessly and picked up a Grammy on the way. Luda’s talent
is undeniable and his ability to sell records any and every time he
drops, and make countless chart-topping songs single-handedly earned him
a spot in the top 5. Unfortunately Luda doesn’t bring much excitement or
controversy as far as news and entertainment is concerned so #5 you
shall stay lol.
4. 50 Cent
What more can be said about this man? Only 2 solo albums in and already
richer than most of your favorite rappers put together B.V. (Before
Vitimanwater) puts Curtis on this list, no question! Technically he
didn’t end a career this time around (Cam’ron helped end his own…so
did Jimmy lol) but it sure did bring us a little bit of excitement this
past Spring (not to mention a pantless Cam’ron ranting by a pool worthy
of your average middle class family). Admitting he didn’t get the
response he’s use to with his first 2 singles (“Amusement Park” and
“Straight To The Bank”) 50 pushed his album back, regrouped, and hit us
with a summer banger in “I Get Money.” The ’03 (or even ’05) allure
might of worn slightly but with an epic clash of the titans due Sept. 11
when he and Kanye’s albums drop, Mr. Cent stays hot…and “stanky” rich
lol.
3. T.I.
It took him a few years but damn, T.I. sure did speak that King Of The
South stuff into existence, didn’t he? I admit, this top 3 was a bit of
a toss up, but T.I. is more than deserving with all the anticipation
that surrounded his latest album “T.I. Vs. T.I.P.” (like it or not). Tip
is pretty much everywhere right now from magazines, to TV, to gossip
blogs, to a town near you on the Screamfest tour with Ciara. All that
and soon to be platinum album after only 3 weeks in stores (take that
Lil Wayne dickriders lol).
2. Jay-Z
I really didn’t expect Jay-Z to land this high, but pit again just about
everyone he is still light years ahead…yes even in 2007! Black
Superman (no not Master P…Google it lol) came back to an industry that
basically imploded after he retired in late ’03-early ’04 (with
exception to Be, R&G, Late Registration, and The Documentary). After
over 10 years of work in the game Jay remains one of the VERY few
artists that can have a concert anywhere on Earth and sell it out in a
day! He had the highest first week sales in Hip-Hop last year
(680,000+), remains the ultimate Hip-Hop trendsetter (whatever he does, says, or
drinks becames instant must haves/do’s), and we can forget he STILL has
the hottest chick in the game. Every feature he does is an event and
obvious marketing tool for the artist. Simply put, he’s hot with little
to no effort put forth…oh yeah and did I mention he’s the only person
here richer than 50 Cent?? Oh, okay…its the Roc!
1. Kanye West
You really can tell him nothin, he’s just simply the shit (with no lame
reference to toilet bowls…Lil Wayne lol). Everything Kanye touches is
gold (Common’s Finding Forever, classic), everything he wears his
swagger jacked (see T.I. and Young Dro’s new wardrobes lol), and
everything he says is taken to heart (do I even have to say it?? lol).
We all know his upcoming “Graduation” album will be classic, so there
really isn’t much more for Kanye to do but keep making hits, right?
WRONG! While your favorite your is somewhere lying on wax, Kanye is
performing with U2 and Sting! Seriously, what rapper does that??? Kanye
is just on a different plain than any rapper in the history of Hip-Hop
and is undoubtedly the hottest (and freshest) MC in the game today.
Honorable Mention
1. Common
Back to back classic albums, movies and a hat line…Com is doing it!
2. Andre 3000
Its funny how one good verse can make even the worst of songs instantly
listenable (i.e. “Walk It Out” and “Throw Some D’s”)
3. Snoop Dogg
Snoop will always be hot lol.
4. Fabolous
Yeah Ne-Yo made him better, but the song is bangin people! lol.
5. Fat Joe
He didn’t start it, but he sure did cash in the most on the most widely
OD’d on phrase of the past year with “Make It Rain.”
If Only Now, Was 5 Years Ago!
1. Eminem
Damn Em was so dominate! Now I ain’t sayin he fell off (can’t forget he
didn’t just end Benzino’s career, he tore his whole life apart lol) but
I dunno what he was thinking with his last 2 collaborations with Akon
and T.I….I mean damn they were worst looks than Earl Boykins guarding
Shaq in the post! He’s a lyrical mastermind (and rich lol) though so all
he needs is one classic album and he’ll be back as one of Rap’s elite.
2. DMX
Wow, talk about a trainwreck! I just feel so bad for him because he once
had the industry in such a chokehold Latrell Sprewell woulda been
jealous. It really makes no sense to me, but X has been crazy for awhile
now (sorry Tanya lol).
3. Nelly
He’s still making money (which is good) and fucking Ashanti (which is
great) so he isn’t doing too bad, but its a far cry from ’02 where he
sold upwards of 9 million records of Nellyville to ’06 where his
Sweatsuit barely went gold.
4. Ja Rule
Rule was hot for a strong 2-3 years B.C. (Before Curtis…well really it
should be B.E. because Eminem did the most damage lol) then 50 came
along & took his lane. He just resurfaced this year, but it won’t have
anywhere near the impact it woulda in ’02… Uh-Oh!
5. Mystikal
He was one of the hottest (and one of my personal favorites) back in the early 2000s, but needless to say what happened to his career shortly there after lol.
July 29th, 2007 at 11:24 pm
Jay could have still be in the top five easily.
5. Jay
4. Lil Wayne
3. T.I.
2. Andre 3000
1. K.West (Quality music still matters to me)
July 29th, 2007 at 11:24 pm
lol- what u got against the game miss info?!?! ur confused he’s on the list but don’t mention anything about jim jones or jeezy, sorry but u lost alot of respect for that one
July 29th, 2007 at 11:34 pm
I see Ms info You don’t agree with #3 The Game,you must not know about Rap,just gettting Info..Listen to all of his mixtapes and you will think diffent..he brought the West coast back…………………….Don’t hate,I am sorry if you like people that rap about nothing,like 50 cent and jay z,you the type that like diddy as a rapper..another Joke……Its Game time…………..
July 29th, 2007 at 11:47 pm
How are Ludacris and Chamillionaire not on there? Again, I think E-40 killed it in ’06. Game at #3 is respectable, I think. I think people slept on the Doctor’s Advocate. Weezy ended up making a lot of cuts on singles and what-not, but Game was right there with him burning up the mixtapes. This may not count for much, but since he left the Unit, he has reached out to damn near everybody. Jay-Z is “casually” hot, but he don’t have that hunger. He may be the Mike Jordan of recordin’, but these young cats is coming hard. Think back to Reasonable Doubt Jay, he killed it on his own album, then if anybody let him have 16 bars on a cut, he’d take it and run with it. I respect Game and Weezy and few others for keeping on the grind.
July 30th, 2007 at 12:10 am
Miss Info? Where are you? I was looking forward to a good debate about this and the comments aren’t even posting!
July 30th, 2007 at 12:21 am
Hey Info, I’ve been a lurker for a while and this is the first post where I feel truly COMPELLED to leave a comment. 🙂
Any list of the top anything is going to cause controversy. The media outlet claiming to have the definitive “top 10 ___” list knows that they will get much more negative attention than people who actually agree with the contents. These lists are just to drum up interest, and for MTV it’s a way for them to try and remain socially relevant during a time when blogs are taking away their ad dollars. But I digress, my real reason for commenting was to say this:
If by “hottest” they mean the most interest then yes, this list is pretty accurate (except The Game, wtf???) because all of these MCs have been in the media lately and on hot tracks, remixes, etc. This list is obviously not about skills because Big Boi’s delivery is much more solid than Andre’s. Cam is better than Jim Jones (yes, he is) and 50 should be in the top 3 because whether you love him or hate him you can’t deny his skills. But anyway, I wouldn’t even attempt to rank rappers right now because the game is so diluted and we get so few solid FULL LENGTH ALBUMS these days. However, I do think the tide is turning and “Hip-Hop Super Tuesday” – which is what I call September 11th, will put a lot of this into perspective. Not so much from a sales point of view but it will be nice to actually be EXCITED about album releases. I’m sure I’ll get them leaked way beforehand but I will still go out and by them to show my support.
July 30th, 2007 at 12:57 am
u right… Game should not be on this list.. he don’t even got a single out…. someone dropped the ball on that 1….
ti need 2 swap places with common… ti’s album is lack luster (2 be nice)
July 30th, 2007 at 1:18 am
THATS WHY I DONT WATCH MTV… that shit is the wackest fucking LIST OF ANY KIND that some one has come up with.. THE GAME? JIM JONES?… yeah, they trynna’ piss some people off and it’s probally gonna’ be 50 cent.
July 30th, 2007 at 1:22 am
IT SHOULD START SOMETHING LIKE THIS:… 1. 50 cent.. 2. T.I… 3. Kanye West… etc, etc. right.. THE SHAME NOR ONE THAT HIT WONDER JIM JONES SHOULD BE ON THAT LIST.
July 30th, 2007 at 2:33 am
hahaha…ok first off
@ honeybee….sorry so sorry! I was busy with a bridal shower (not my own, lol) so I didnt get to get the comments up. MY BAD!
But I love all the debate about this…
@runnin it….HAHA….I love the Triumph reference.
@everyone who is so outraged that jim jones is on this list….once again, please comprehend the fact that this is MTV’s “Hottest” emcees list. Which is I guess only measuring how in-demand or popular a rapper is RIGHT THIS VERY MOMENT. regardless of skill or history.
So, just like looking at the playlist for your local radio station…its not gonna reflect the BEST emcees….just the ones that are poppin’ to the masses right now.
And in that case, I definitely think Weezy is #1. And I also agree that jim jones needs to be in the top 10. If that wasnt a reality, then he wouldnt be on soooo maaany remixes. Its not like he’s paying these guys to get on. Its the other way around.
As for Game….once again…this is the HOTTEST EMCEES RIGHT NOW. I love both of Game’s albums (well, I loved the first one, and I liked the second one.) I also loved the unreleased tracks that leaked a while back. But he’s been busy having a new baby and touring europe forever….he has not been busy being anything close to HOT here in the US. And I dont think there’s anythign wrong with that. In fact, I think its very very important for celebs to disappear so that we can miss them (ahem…Beyonce).
So, GAMETIME….I definitely appreciate The Game as an artist. And I definitely DONT think he should be anywhere near #3 on this list. ABOVE KANYE??? If you agree with that, then “you dont know hip hop” hahahaa….I dont even think they think that in Compton.
July 30th, 2007 at 2:34 am
This list is crap and already rendered irrevelant, killed by its own supposed “criteria.” Oh well. Conversation over.
July 30th, 2007 at 2:37 am
Why the hell is not Nas on that list?!? And how the hell did Game make top 3…and how the hell did Jimmy even make the top 10…
This is exactly what they wanted to do… was to start some heated ass debate and banter about it and they got what they wanted…lol
July 30th, 2007 at 3:30 am
Miss Info…I know Jim Jones is your homeboy, but I am sick of hearing him say “ballin” on every other remix! They also based it on style and swagger, and this dirty mofo need to take a shower! The crazy part is if Jim Jones cleaned himself up (i.e. cut that nasty hair, face hair, stop showing your underwear as a grown ass man) he would be gorgeuous!
July 30th, 2007 at 3:59 am
List is coo, switch Kanye with Game, even though Game is that nigga out here on the West Coast..Weezy oversaturated himself, he gotta fall back for a while now..Jeezy should not be in there, does he talk bout anything other thank coke? Luda had 2 hits on his latest album and still couldnt make it? Jim Jones had 1 hot song and now he the shit? Nigga was just the damn hypeman like a minute ago…I guess if you aint from the Chi or Ny, Miss Info aint gonna give love..
July 30th, 2007 at 4:17 am
Well If This List Is Just Based On Hottest In The Game Right Now Then It’s Not As Bad As I Thought It Was At First. But Hell No To Jim Jones I’d Would’ve Put Fabolous In His Spot With Out A Doubt. To Have Common Behind 50 Jeezy && Game [Who I Don’t Even Know Why Is On The List]Is Straight Disrespect.I Still Don’t Understand How Game Got On The List Let Alone The 3rd Top Spot [?] And If It’s A Who’s Relevant Kanye Has Two Hot Singles Out Right Now [Key Word] NOW. I Agree With Lil Wayne’s Placement && With T.I’s As Well. Also They Stressed The Issue Of Swag During The Debate. I Personally Feel Kanye && Andre 3000 Got More Swag That Game [Personally I Believe They Are Better MC’s As Well]. I Do Think Fab Should’ve Been There Though. I Wish That One Day Talib Kweli && Lupe Fiasco Get The Respect They Deserve. They Truly Are Sick Lyrically And They Show A Different Side OF Hip Hop. If We Can Bring More MC’s Like That Into THe Game Hip Hop Can Make The Change It’s Been Looking For.
July 30th, 2007 at 5:13 am
miss info im mad that you would only just disagree with #3..your a hip-hop head so i kno THERE IS PLENTY MORE UP THERE THAT U DISAGREE WITH..sorry but to me that’s straight phony of u because you probably not mentioning the others you disagree with because you cool with those other rappers…
July 30th, 2007 at 5:35 am
seems 2 b a panel of str8 up jackasses there r a lot of discrepancies but monkey looking wayne @ #1,what the f*ck has hiphop gone 2?
July 30th, 2007 at 6:49 am
I agree with Miss Info. KanYe should have went up. . . And Beyonce really does need 2 sit her ass down somewhere. Hopefully falling on her face will make her rest 4 a min.
July 30th, 2007 at 7:06 am
The List Is Actually Based On 2day & Right Now – Not Of All Time! But I Do Agree With Info On #3 (He Hasnt A Hit Since One Blood) Which Was Sooooo Last Yr. LOL!
July 30th, 2007 at 7:25 am
MY LIST IS AS FOLLOWS:
10) THE GAME (EVEN THO I CANT STAND THAT MAN, LIKE U SAID INFO, THE DOCUMENTARY WAS A GREAT ALBUM AND THE DOCTORS ADVOCATE WAS GOOD, BUT NOT GOOD ENUF, SO THATS Y HE’S # 10…HEHE)
9) JIM JONES (HE REALLY HASNT WOWED ME THIS YEAR, BUT BALLIN WAS HUGE,I GUESS…SO ILL GIVE HIM HIS CREDIT)
8) JAY-Z (JAY’S MY FAV RAPPER AND HE DELIVERS MOST OF THE TIME, BUT TO KEEP IT REAL WITH MYSELF, HE REALLY HAS DONE ANYTHING IN 07′ BUT VACATE WITH BEE)
7)JEEZY (LIKE THEY WERE SAYING IN THE DEBATE, HE MIGHT NOT BE THE BEST RAPPER, BUT HIS SWAG IS WHAT GETS U)
6) ANDRE 3000 (FOR THE REASONS THEY WERE SAYING IN THE DEBATE)
5)FABOLOUS (U CANT LISTEN TO THE RADIO FOR 5 MINUTES WITHOUT HEARING MAKE ME BETTA AND HIS PUNCHLINES R REALLY HOT TOO…THERE ARE A LOT OF RAPERS THAT LOST THERE PUNCHLINE ABILITY, LIIIKE SAAY, LLOYD BANKS…BUT FAB IS CONSISTENT)
4) KANYE (HE REALLY COMES ORIGINAL WITH HIS VIDEOS…HES SO OUT THERE WHEN IT COMES TO VIDEOS…U NEVER KNOW WHAT HE’LL DO NEXT…IT KEEPS U INTERESTED…BUT I STILL WANT 50 TO SELL MORE…SANS 50 BEING AT #3 HEHE)….
3)50 CENT(AMUSEMENT PARK AND STR8 TO THE BANK WHERE BLAH…BUT I GET MONEY WAS POPPIN…ITS THE HOTTEST RECORD ON THE STREETS RIGHT NOW…HE REDEEMED HIMSELF BIG TIME)
2) T.I. (THE WAY ALBUM SALES ARE GOING DOWN THESE DAYS IS INCREDIBLE, AND FOR T.I. TO DO ALMOST 500K IN A WEEK IS CRAAAZY…AND HIS FANBASE IS SO DIVERSE… SO I HAVE TO GIVE HIM CREDIT WHERE ITS DUE = ])
1) WEEZY F BABY (LIKE THEY WHERE SAYING IN THE DEBATE, HE SAYS EXACLTY WHAT EVERY OTHER RAPPER IS SAYING, BUT HE HAS CLEVER WORDPLAY AND HIS PUNCHLINES ARE RIDICULOUS AND THATS PURE GENIUS….HOOOOOOWEVER, LOL, LIKE 50 SAID, HES ON TOO MANY SONGS…HE NEEDS TO LEARN HOW TO SAY NO SOMETIMES NO MATTER HOW HUNGRY HE IS)
YUP, THAT PRETTY MUCH SUMS UP MY OPINION
July 30th, 2007 at 12:32 pm
lol Game doesn’t even get that much love in Compton..i’m from Canada and i met this dude from Cali, and he was sayin Game barely gets love in his own city, all I could do is laugh. Needless to say game isnt’ a bad rapper just not one of the hottest right now…i dont agree with this list at all…at least not the order but like info said no one is going to 100%. and if you thought hottest MC had anything to do with how u put them words together u smoke to much…
July 30th, 2007 at 12:38 pm
MTV 2 needs to get a clue. That nonsense was done on purpose to get people talking. Their first mistake was to disrespect the legend Nas. and where the hell was Fab? Fab may not be the best lyricist but he is HOT right now. 50 should’nt have been # 8, I get money saved him. If “I get money” is the best that he has, expect his new album to be trash.
1. lil wayne
2. Ti
3. Kanye
4. Jay
5. Nas
6. Jeezy (he has no originality, however, he does sells albums)
7. three stacks (andre 3000)
8. Game
9. Fab
10.50 cent (“I get money” saved this dude)
July 30th, 2007 at 12:54 pm
This is the worst list I’ve ever seen let me add some rapper that should have been in the mix
Eric B and Rikim
LL cool J
Mos Def
Redman
Method man
NAS
Wu Tang
B.I.G
2Pac
Buster
DMX be4 the drugs
And that just to name a few
July 30th, 2007 at 2:50 pm
pay attention mr studio.for the last time its not g.o.a.t.its hottest rapper out now!!!we all agree jim jones and game should not be on that list.nobodies checking for game right now.jim jones only got balling and a hes on few mixes….although that new shit he got with lil wayne that funkmaster flex is playing looks to be another hit.
July 30th, 2007 at 3:14 pm
#1 Lil’ Wayne? The proverbial WTF is needed here. Can you say straight trash??! He has to be the most annoying rapper of all time.
No skills…. Example:
“I’m on like the television…” wow stop the presses its the best rapper alive!
Anyways The Game, Huh is right. Game and Top 10 don’t belong in the same sentence unless it has worst in it.
Ahh MTV now I remember why I don’t watch it anymore. To be continued with a REAL top 10 list….
July 30th, 2007 at 3:24 pm
Andre 3000 should have definitely been #1 over Lil Wayne because Wayne rapping on too much stuff
1. Andre 3000
2. Lil Wayne
3. T.I.
4. Young Jeezy
5. Kanye West
hate all u want on the Game but he been killing Remixes
6. Jim Jones
7. 50 Cent
8.Common
9.Jay-z
10.Nas
July 30th, 2007 at 3:43 pm
Yoo these people dont have enough credibility to do this. They should let the fans decide because obviously this list is their opinion. They should just stick to hillary Duff, green day, and mychemical romance.
July 30th, 2007 at 3:44 pm
@ #77, you do know that this list is for artists hot RITE NOW
July 30th, 2007 at 3:50 pm
@ Mr. Studio
lol literally not one of those artists are Hot “right now”….right now meaning 2007 2nd Quarter. Nas shouldn’t even be up there Snoop should be there instead cuz any track Snoop is on he makes it one the coolest tracks out simply because of his swagger.
This isn’t a countdown of the most lyrical MC’s CLEARLY if u just look at number 10 lol.
July 30th, 2007 at 3:52 pm
just to be clear i’m not hatin on none of those artists Mr. Studio mentioned they are all greats of course…but they was hot when they was on top…they ain’t on top right now.
July 30th, 2007 at 4:13 pm
obviously this list has to do with the rap game NOW and hot singles that are current that’s the only reason why Nas isnt even on the list. but you cant be serious by putting the game at number 3 before common, jay, KANYE WEST!!, and even 50 WTF!!??….. on second thought why am i even gettin hype over this list itz MTV lmfao!!!! home of trl(gag) and those other stupid ass shows. but i gotta tip my hat off to them they got balls by even thinkin of puttin out a list.
July 30th, 2007 at 4:38 pm
1. Jayz
2. T.I
3. Talib
4. Lil Wayne
5. Luda
6. Mos
7. Em
8. Kanye
9.Nas
10. Common
July 30th, 2007 at 4:47 pm
if they saying hot right now this second, i would put TI before weezy and game shouldn’t even be on the list…
July 30th, 2007 at 6:37 pm
As far as the list goes i have to disagree with the masses. I think game should have bin where he is on the list. when people hear game they think of how 50 was when he had that hunger mentallity. And they did base this somewhat off of lyrics and game does deliver on that and game had just as many hits as jim jones and he did it with lyrics.
50 should of definately bin higher when ever somebody mentions a rapper these days its either 50, lil wayne, or kanye (Top 3 in any order).
The problem is that there are too many hustlers nd not enough artists jeezy and jim jones have nothing that is unique about them. They easily could have bin replaced by rick ross, fat joe, cassidy, or even fab. Nd everybody kno that the most authentic mc on that list was common nd yall should cop that Finding Forever
July 30th, 2007 at 7:58 pm
SINCE WE TALKIN HOT RIGHT NOW WELL,,,,,
10 Jim Jones- (DISAGREE) SHOULDN’T BE ON THIS LIST. I’LL PUT THAT YUNG BERG DUDE IN THIS SPOT.
9 Common- COSIGN
8 50 Cent- (DISAGREE) SHOULD BE #4
(I GET MONEY NUFF SAID)
7 Jay-Z- COSIGN MEDIOCRE HOT BUT STILL IN IT.
6 Jeezy- COSIGN STREETS GOT LOVE 4 DUDE.
5 Kanye West- COSIGN
4 Andre 3000- (DISAGREE)SHOULD BE #8
3 The Game – (DISAGREE)ON MIXTAPES AND DA UNDERGROUND CIRCUTS MAYBE, BUT HE AINT HOT NOW. SHOULDN’T BE ON THIS LIST. I’LL PUT FAB IN THIS SPOT.
2 TI-COSIGN
1 Lil’ Wayne – COSIGN RELUCTANTLY, BUT WEEZIE DEFINETLY OUT THERE DOING IT. A LIL TOO MUCH 4 ME BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS.
July 30th, 2007 at 8:03 pm
I need to say about this list is do you people even know about what an MC is? Master of Ceramony…. Im tired of these young hip hop heads thinking they know music and they relate MC to a Lyrical rapper….
I know the best MC has to go to BUSTA… LIL wayne MISS. INFO I have grown to like what you have to say, but why do you comment on number 3 the game and not Lil Wayne, this kid has ghost writters, and wants to be Jay Z. Where is Nas on this list…
T.I. should not even come close to this list cause this album he just put out is straight Bird DO DO…. What happened to T.I is when he got a lot of money he did movies, he did other things, and his music sufferred I think he is a good artist but man T.I. release another one in 6 months…
We need someone to write a real 10 list, not with bubble gum money rappers, who just make songs to get strippers, and cash, but real lyrical cats, who love the music.. Cause Chino Xl can be a lyrical beast, Cormega is a beast…..
July 31st, 2007 at 12:15 am
Clearly everyone has their biases and what-not. This is HIGHLY subjective. All this proves to me is that Nas is wrong. Hip Hop aint dead!! If it was dead, then why the f*ck would we be discussing this right now? LoL, there are regional differences. no one cares about Dipset in Cali. I personally think Snoop could have been #10. He had hits with R. Kelly, PCD, Akon, and that song with e-40….Candy. As we all saw, even the “brain trust”, er, peanut gallery, couldn’t even keep it straight as far as credentials and what’s hot. I think above all, the biggest dichotomy is commercial success vs street success. We all love Lupe, but he aint hot. That’s not a knock on him, maybe a knock on his PR. I can sit here and say I didn’t like Kingdom Come, which I didn’t, but Jay still went double plat, he had his video, he had B’s video, he has the commercials, Jay is definitely hot. I would LOVE to see Jay kill these clowns on wax, but he doesn’t care anymore. I’ll never forget when Cam’ron came to LA and said all that crap on Power 106 ’bout Jay. Anyhow, I think the Doc’s Advocate was the hardest hitter of any mainstream artist in 06 and he might have scratched 900k. I personally don’t think record sales should come into the greatest/hottest argument. Record sales basically come down to how many white people buy your joint. We’ve been trained to slurp up these club jingles and videos. I’ll be honest, I’m no different than anybody else. I’m a victim of the hype sometimes. It’s a chore for me to go in a store and buy a cd the 1st or 2nd week. I want 10 bangers on that mug, or else I can just turn on my radio. Real talk though, the mixtapes have been where the hottest ish is at for 2 years running. I don’t know if cats are scared to put out an LP, scared to go gold or what. Lil Wayne is hands down the hottest MC. Man, he is killing these mixtapes. Speaking of Game, I thought FOR SURE he’d do a video for “CA Vacation” w/ Xzibit and Snoop. He definitely should have put something together for “Why you hate the game” with Nas. Those songs definitely would have carried Game into ’07 looking nice and this nonsense about him not being hot would be a moot point. Again, there is no debating everything Weezy spits is crack. I never thought I’d say that after his Cash Money days, I completely disregarded him until a year ago.
July 31st, 2007 at 12:25 am
am sick of u people dissing 50. He is the hottest MC right now. No matter what u say he already has 4 hit records in Amusement park, Straight to the bank and i get money.

This whole list is fucked up.Where is ghost, where is busta, where is royce?Man i was looking at this shit and it was getting me upset.Fuck commercial hip hop … with my all heart i mean that. I’m surprise these crackheads didn’t put lil boosie.What the hell are people thinking these days? I would make a list but it would just make no sense cause most of yall would say how is he is nice? The only i know is if u heard common lastest album ” Finding forever” he wouldn’t be 9th. But i guess the world so stupid these days that when a man spit real shit that doesn’t involved guns,weed,hoes it like it doesn’t exist.I give up on exampling what hip hop is to this moronic world i will wait until my after life. LMAO
July 31st, 2007 at 1:59 am
some of yall list is actually worst than mtv’s!@ugo-str8 to the bank and amusement hits???where were they hitting at?rye playland or coney island?
July 31st, 2007 at 3:36 am
Our list:
10. Fabolous
09. Cassidy
08. Ludacris
07. Common
06. T.I.
05. Kanye West
04. Nas
03. Joe Budden
02. Lil Wayne
01. Jay-Z
Based on lyrics and how recent they’ve dropped. Em for example would be on here, but he rarely drops anymore. Joe Budden is the most underated artist ever. Mood Muzick 2 is one of the greatest mixtapes of all-time.
July 31st, 2007 at 6:45 am
Jim Jones, Common and the Game should not be on that list
July 31st, 2007 at 7:04 am
First of all people, it is mtv, som credibility is out the window. Having said that, must of you numb skulls let these media publications tell you how to think anyway. So on that basis I’ll address the list for what it is. Any top 10 with Jimmy Jeezy and 50 on it is already absurd. THEY CAN’T RAP. Whether you talkin about hot, lyrical, or whatever, if you’re talkin about rap, being able to actually spit should be the #1 criteria. Say what you want about the Game, at least he can rhyme. 3000 is questionable, but he can rap when he decides to be a rapper sometimes. Given the rest of the list, I can’t see why they left Fab off. One thing they did get right though, WEEZY is #1 right now, love it or hate it. I didn’t realize it was a crime to murder everything you touch and be all over the radio, mixtapes, internet, ipods, zunes, and everything else. Don’t you people realize that 50 has an agenda. Every thing he says is not the word of God. He only called Wayne a whore because he did songs with Dip Set and Ja. Anyway, peace people. Demand More!
Oh yeah, right on Slade
July 31st, 2007 at 7:17 am
lmao @ comment 93 u sound like u have the brain of a 4 year old. first off u put max b on ur list he hasnt done anything outside of dipset nd he was in jail for the past 9 months. second u said that common shouldnt be on the list who is probly the most consistent mc in the game right now.
July 31st, 2007 at 8:21 am
this list is bull shit because nobody is on top of hov, nas, and em, period. cassidy should be on it, talib should be on it, joe budden should be on it, luda should be on it, fabolous should be on it. take lil wayne off BECAUSE HE DOESNT WRITE HIS OWN FUCKIN LYRICS. how can somebody be mentioned as one of the best lyricist when YOU DONT WRITE YOUR OWN LYRICS????????????????????????????????????????
so damn gay, get rid of that fag.
1)Jay-z(have to be knocked off of the top)
2)Em
3)Nas
4)Common
5)Joe Budden
6)talib
7)cassidy
8)Luda
9)fabolous
10)kanye
remove game lame ass, and remove lil wayne fake ass.
July 31st, 2007 at 8:32 am
Well..1st of all da title should be changed..Remove “MC” & replace wit hottest “Rappers” Right Now..some of da ppl leavin comments still don’t understand that this has nothing 2 do wit LYRICAL ability cuz ppl like Jim Jones..Jeezy(HA HA!!…YEEEAAAAHHH!!…THAT’S RIIIGHT!!)& Lil Wayne wouldn’t rank top 50 let alone top 10
Actually…In terms of “Hot RAPPERS Right Now” I agree wit top 2…#1 being Lil Wayne & #2 being T.I..
I agree wit Game not belonging on da list cuz he hasn’t been on anything or had anything of his own right now..#3 should be Fab..just on that 1 song wit Neyo.
#4..50..I heard “I Get Money” 4 times in an hour& a half(just on hot 97)..then da remix wit Papoose(I Get Gully) & he on that song wit Ciara..that’s been getting a lot of burn.
#5..Jeezy..I can’t stand Jeezy..but accordin 2 da Tri State he’s hot
#6.Common…I heard his new joint twice in that same hour in a half I hear 50’s “I Get Money”(just on Hot 97)
#7.Jay Z..He’s on da Umberella song..da Rehab Remix(Any Winehouse)..both songs getting steady radio air play & video burn..
8.ummmm…Kanye….I see his video more than hear it on da radio..in fact…I wouldn’t even say that Kanye is really that hot right now..i’d say UGK..but does would groups count?? If not I would say Bun B..at #8 & Kanye at #9
& #10..I don’t even know who else there is…I should just randomly turn on MTV now & see who’s on….& 2 tell u da truth..what does MTV base this list off of anyway..cuz they show da same stuff on MTV channels across da US..but da radio stations r different every where u go..4 example..when I go 2 Michigan 2 visit my son..I don’t hear half da stuff they play over here ..over there..all they play is T-Pain..& 90% south..which brings me back 2 Top 2(Weezy & T.I)…so I don’t even know anymore..
July 31st, 2007 at 1:42 pm
Yo that list is disgusting, it has nothing to do with lyrical ability young jeezy, makes good music he’s no M.C. jim jones dido and little wayne is a retard be for real there is’nt anyone alive besides like a hand few of artists who can actually rap
P.S. I wish people would stop saying little wayne is the best rapper alive I sit and question a persons intelligence when they say things like that do u really listen to the shit he says alot of doesn’t even ryhme
July 31st, 2007 at 2:34 pm
Biggie smalls did the same exact thing as lil wayne is doing…..all you had to do is pay biggie like 8grand and dude would have rhymed on your track with you….he said it in an interview…now niggas callin lil wayne a whore cause he rhymin with anyone, particularly persons, that 50 is not so fond of…like jarule, all of a sudden they whores…..oh well, then be the best whore you can be…you know 50 wants to rhyme with lil wayne….50 also called kanye a homo cause k said he got feminin ways cause he was raised by a mom…..TUPAC SHAKUR SAID THE SAME EXACT THING AS KANYE WEST ABOUT HAVIN FEMININ WAYS, CAUSE TUPAC WAS RAISED BY HIS MOMS…HE SAID IT IN THE MOVIE…ETERNAL, PRODUCED BY HIS MOTHER.
I dont really disagree with MTV’s top 10 list…i dont care where you from…if you can rhyme then do your thing. Top 10 rappers based on what…its not of all time…guess its who in the public view, causing a stir in the limelite…etc…its a matter of opinion, not a big deal
July 31st, 2007 at 2:39 pm
1st off no one should be in front of HOVA and what about JADAKISS??? THAT list Is some bullshit TO BEHONEST theres not really any hot shit out right now!
July 31st, 2007 at 3:53 pm
Oh…& I 4got 2 mention..half da reason somebody could be hot right now & can be a lyrical joke..is do 2 who is doin there beats..case in point..they have Jim Jones up there..lyrically terrible & no flow what so ever..but he has hot beats..that’s what carried him..& he had his catch fraze(BALLIN’)..Jeezy is another 1.i’d say better than Jim Jones on da mic..but still garbage lyrically..but..his beats r hot..this is an on goin cycle..but also u have 2 realize this..we call this music..if da beats aren’t good..da average listener don’t care..
July 31st, 2007 at 4:01 pm
Jadakiss definately is not one of the “hottest mcs” right now. Jada gets no burn. First album and his work with the LOX had him locked in the top 5 or ten, but his second album sucked. Now he is on a remix with Lil Floosie, c’mon. Weezy should be #1 just because this list is based purely on “hotness”. If you want a hot track, get Weezy. And for all the real backpackers, Weezy is so hot that he is on the next Little Brother album.
July 31st, 2007 at 6:15 pm
DIS LIST RIGHT HERE IS WACK HOW THEY GONE PUT GAME 3 WHEN 50 AND DRE WROTE HALF HIS FIRST ALBUM JAY Z BEEN DOING IT FOR THE PASS 12 SOMETHING YRS AND HE’S ALWAYS WITH THE HITS JIM JONES IN EVERY OTHER SONG HE PUTS OUT HE STILL YELLIN OUT BALLIN WEN THAT WAS LAST SUMMER TI HE IGHT NOT TOP TEN MAYB TOP WHERES EM JADA STYLE BANKS CAS FAB DMX REV RUN (JUST KIDDING)THATS DIS IS HOW THE LIST SHOULD HAVE GONE

But yall are going to far. Yall got the nerve to fabolous , cassidy. Do you know music at all? Fabolous … that nigga ok but NO he shouldn’t be refer.Fabolous has the same ol stale punchlines from 99.

I haven’t heard a single from his since “strip club”.And that was this time last year LMAO.Com’on people wake up.

Wat do u think miss info wats ur list. I know u cool wit most of these rappers but we also want to see ur list
August 2nd, 2007 at 5:02 am
Word i agree bummy we know you seen these niggaz in public . I mean if you can’t say anything cause of ur relationship with them i can understand. Cause this is your job and if they find you dissing them on the site .They will probably start whinning like bitches. Honestly , i think missinfo is a deep hip hop fan but she just work at a station that supports music for money other than quality. It kool though make your money babygirl .Shit it could be worst … You could be working at Mcdonalds flipping burgers or not working at all. Also i am not dissing people that work in mickie D’s but that shit is the worst kinda of job in general. How you get horribe pay with smelly food flooding up your nose all day long .No i never worked there but i have people that work there.And they complain about it everytime they come home from work. Whoever making there get ya paper over there, keep doing your thing that shit is better than nothing…PEACE
August 2nd, 2007 at 12:57 pm
Anyway i think mtv should hold like a top 10 hottest mcs show again but this time it should be something like vieweres choice. This list has caused chaos in every forum and if another list is done only by real fans maybe there wont be soo much chaos.
August 2nd, 2007 at 6:58 pm
wtf! im mad 50 is on it and freakin jeezy is on it and not FABOLOUS!!!! c’mon now …. this shit is retarded! i do agree wit #1 thought …. hands down!

lil wayne sucks ballz…t.i. is awful…no ryme scheme havin’ wack pop rapper. jeezy…jim jones…50 cent…wake the f up people…these cats can’t ryme. are you all under a spell? since rap started, being hot meant having skill. that’s what it means to me. if someone asks me if an mc is hot or not, i’m giving them that answer based on skill. this list is corporate fodder. they make a list of the artists who they play videos for because they get greased to do so….

f corny, commercial rappers with no skill who can barely ryme 1 word per bar.
this list is corporate fodder. mtv gets greased to pump these artists. end of story.
t.i., lil wayne, jim jones, 50 cent…can’t rap at all…they are all basic, no ryme scheme havin, no multis havin’ wack rappers.
and what’s the definition of “hot” to you? to me, it’s who’s got the most skill…always been that way since hip-hop started. if someone asks me if a certain mc is hot, i’m answering them based on skills.

August 16th, 2007 at 5:20 am
There are some people on the list that are just hot in the game from their image, and should not be looked at as real mc’s, (50 Cent). Then there are those who people hate on because they are big, and no one takes the time to listen to alot of the underground music to see how versatile they are, (Lil Wayne). And others that all agree on (Common, Kanye). But I have to say that 50 is burnt out, and people tire of his ass. The nigga to cocky and don’t have the talent to back it up. I hope Kanye outsell his ass. He can’t stop hating on Ja Rule in fact he won’t work with artists that have been on his songs. And he “THINKS” he is number one when really he shouldn’t be on the list.
