MTV 2008 "Hottest MC's In The Game" List

1. Kanye West
2. Jay-Z
3. Lil' Wayne
4. Rick Ross
5. Snoop Dogg
6. 50 Cent
7. Lupe Fiasco
8. Young Jeezy
9. Andre 3000
10. T.I.
the only argument I'd make is that Snoop doesn't belong on this list. If it's hottest MCs in the game RIGHT NOW, I don't think sexual eruptionwas enough. Also, even though he's in my personal top 10 ever, 3 stacks puts out material so sparingly, it's not fair to include him. Personally, mylist would be...
1. Kanye (#1 tour. #1 album. = #1)
2. Jay (#2 tour. Underrated album =#2)
3. 50 Cent (thisis50.com, both g-unit tapes, and as far as haters, the amount he has now is the same as always....plus he still goes plat.)
4. Lil' Wayne (only reason he's below 50 is SLOWLY, the tides are starting to turn against him. has ALOT riding on TCIII)
5. Lupe Fiasco (despite mediocre album sales, he's opening for the #1 tour in the country and has a STRONG fan base)
6. Rick Ross - (dude is a miami coke rapper, yet is doing better sales than ^. has about 6-8 better than average tracks. can't take anything from him)
7. Young Jeezy - (Has yet to have an freshman or sophomore slump. features plus the new single with Kanye keep him in the pack)
8. T.I. - (people are still looking for TIP, however his "plea deal" mixed with the Shawty Lo drama has a ton of people turning on him as well)
9. The Clipse (staying relevant with a fan base despite tons of label trouble, with only the help of mixtapes, while Papoose is slowly disappearing in the samesituation. Plus CRS feat. Pusha = ecccckkkkk)
10. Plies - (yeah, I know, Plies? But fact of the matter is, when we're talking about hottest rappers RIGHT THIS SECOND, dude is about to put out a 2ndalbum in a year and change, has steady records in rotation, and his "realness"(? definition of this) is constantly being co-signed.
just my opinion though.

Wait until Luda's album drops, then he'll be on there for sure. He's more into acting right now though. I believe he's only been in 3 or 4songs this year.
But for this list, is it for the most popular, or the "best" rapper currently?

And how do you figure that?
Weezy ain't seeing 'Ye right now. Kan has the biggest tour on the planet as we speak....and you for damn sure Weezy ain't pulling 800K his first week.
I know I know....someone is gonna reply with the typical 'he is a feature on a million tracks...he's EVERYWHERE'....or the 'Lollipop was the number one single!'....
Weezy will only get that recognition because of the thousands of teeny boppers that eat up all his ridiculous antics. Was on this other chick's myspace and chick has a "Weezy = GOD" joint on her layout. I was like....

Wayne is also the most over-rated rapper

Weezy's been havin a buzz out here in the bay for the last 2-3 years now...and i hate to sound racist and i don't mean to come across like this, but he's only growin more popular because the white folks are starting to catch on to him and fallowing his best rapper alive thing...i mean it amazes me when I go to a suburban mall and I see these rich white kids blastin lollipop in there 535BMW

lol. I love in the west dude so I know EXACTLY what you're saying. dudes in hoopties bumpin Lollipop like crazy around here. Wayne does have a buzz. Ididn't deny that. But dude ain't above 'Ye in any regard. Wayne will be lucky if he can crack HALF of Ye's 800K his first week. Kanye isestablishing himself as an icon. Wayne is just that rapper with the catchy/funny lines that white America is dying over right now. Will it last? Doubt it.Wayne needs to revert back to his spitting days if he wants his LOYAL fanbase to continue to support him.

Wow....This is what I don't understand.....Does the young generation remember +@*%*# N Trouble, Block Iz Hot, Guerilla Warfare Album, 500 DegreezAlbum, or even Squad Up mixtapes? Wayne has been popping out here for way too long, but things like "Wayne=God" all of a sudden is just recklesswithout some knowledge of how it all started.
Sorry for the typical music elitist comment, but god damn....

how can y'all front on kanye? he's not just "hot" in hiphop. he's the leading pop culture icon right now. yeah, wayne got crazy buzz, butkanye got the stats from sales, to tours, to everything, it's not even fair to say wanye can top the "hottest" list. if there's anyone thatshould compete against his hype, it should be a miley cyrus (shh, i wouldn't be surprised if she started rapping next...you know kids would still buy thatjoint
).
................
ps. man, some of y'all either can't read or have a hard time comprehending. bun b? pusha t? fab? i like all these rappers, and they're all verytalented and got real skills (much better than a ross or a wayne or jeezy
)...but they got no place in a "hottest" list. they may deserve to bementioned in another category, such as murdering whatever track they spit on or whatever...but hottest? nah...

Some of you guys either live in a bubble or simply don't understand the prompt given to the discussion panel.
This is not, "Who do you and your boys think are the hottest MC's in the game."

the cats who created that list hold no credibility, except for maybe a few. I watched some of it the other night and dudes were arguing about adding SouljahBoy on that list, over Andre 3000 and T.I. and thats when I changed the channel.

If this is truely the hottest MCs out right now shouldn't like T-Pain be number one. IF you consider Kanye West an MC then you have to include t-pain andakon. Kanye is pop music. His ryhmes are shallow and appeal to the same people that like other pop music. The list should be hottest person in rap music not MCthats dissrespectful to people like Lupe and 3 stacks who are true MCs. Soulja boy is hotter right now then jay-z. So is plies. If your going to make the listentitled hottest MCs out right now then do it. Plies, flow rida, lets count ray j.
The list wasn't bad but jay-z doesn't deserve 2 wayne should prob be number one. I hate lil wayne so much but he is hotter right now then kanye. IF ihere the word mili one more time im going to kill some one. And for people to say kanye is going to be a legend...........SMH.
Atmospheres new record is fire go buy it.

I have to see this on MTV Jams...from the commercail I was scared they was gonna put Solja Boy in the top 10
