Video: Hottest MC In The Game: #4 Kanye West, #3 Drake, #2 Lil Wayne, #1 Jay-Z
Told you… The order is a little off to me (Yeezy > Weezy, Gucci > Ross) and Em should’ve been in the last half, but none of that comes close to offending me as much that year Game was #3.
Previously: #5 Rick Ross | #6 Gucci Mane | #7 Young Jeezy | #8 Fabolous | #9 Curtis | #10 Raekwon

Dont nobody care about this MTV bullshit….now when Nah makes a list, that’ll be something (non-dickriding)
October 5th, 2009 at 12:32 am
Yo Dre, you have Drake and Wayne both listed as #2.
October 5th, 2009 at 12:33 am
where is eminem and no t.i.? paper trail? number 1 and 2 song for how many weeks? thats some serious bullshit
October 5th, 2009 at 12:33 am

Yo real talk how did Jeezy make the list this year and not Eminem? Jeezy aint drop shit since his last album with Put on as the first single. Didnt that come out in 2007? Jay-z is number one again? I smell dick riding in the air…
October 5th, 2009 at 12:47 am
NahRight can easily do a tournament style system match up for hottest MC or w/e
October 5th, 2009 at 12:49 am
SMH Fabolous’s lame ass made the list, even Raekwon ranked number ten. Eminem’s rap album went platinum, plus he dropped a classic verse on the Alchemist joint, what Kanye do to deserve his spot? a heartbreak & 808 album and a verse on a Jay-z song???
October 5th, 2009 at 12:49 am
EMINEM NOT OWN THE LIST GOOD BECAUSE HIS ALBUM SUCK DONKEY DICK.THAT NIGGA MADE THE WORST CD OF THE YEAR.I WOULDNT BE CAUGHT DEAD LISTENING TO THAT SHIT IN THE HOOD THEY WOULD KILL ME.BESIDES HE SOLD THAT CD OFF THE OLD BUZZ HE HAD. WERE HIS ALBUM AT NOW 1.4 MILL WAYNE SOLD THAT SHIT IN A WEEK DAMN.PLUS HE HAVEN’T HAD A TOUR YET BECAUSE HE CANT PERFORM WORTH OF SHIT.THATS THE ONLY REASON WHAT MAKE A MC A TOUR. MC MEAN ALOT OF THING AND ONE IS MOVE THE CROWD= MC. IM GLAD HE AIN’T ON THE LIST IM PROUD SON PROUD
October 5th, 2009 at 12:51 am
wayne’s not in the top 4 right now…I could count the number of hot post-CIII songs he’s dropped on one hand (not counting tracks that drake/anybody else carries).
’07/’08 wayne= #1 no question.
at his current rate, you couldn’t legitimately put him on the 2010 list.
October 5th, 2009 at 12:51 am
i thought we voted for this list? i’m pretty sure em was in first on the polls and joey was up there to, i dont understand how they dont make top 10 when gucci and jeezy do?
wtf list was i voting on? haha
October 5th, 2009 at 12:54 am
How wayne up their with what Mixtape… Album?!
Also Camel is number 1… MTV are some clowns.
Putting out BP3 gets you #1 spot?
October 5th, 2009 at 12:54 am
I cant believe eminem didnt make this list when he has the highest first weeks sales of the year and is double platinum…i guess the real reason im mad is because he was winning the polls that the actually “people” got a chance to vote on for the original list…rick ross #5? really? im done with mtv, and honestly, drake should have been #1, everybody wants that dude on they album/hook, even jay-z, and i dont even fuck wit drake

“The Films of Tyler Perry.” Diary of a Mad Black Woman, Madea’s Family Reunion, Why Did I Get Married, Meet the Browns, and this past weekend’s I Can Do Bad All By Myself also all made it to #1, but Madea Goes to Jail gets the shout-out for the most painful, Ernest-recalling title. Perry writes and directs his films exclusively for an African American middle-aged female audience, a demographic so underserved by Hollywood that they’ll take whatever Perry gives them — even something filled to the brim with stereotypes and painfully unfunny grandmothers played by the director in drag.
Critics don’t have a clue how to deal with him; Roger Ebert gave Diary of a Mad Black Woman one star, saying “I’ve been reviewing movies for a long time, and I can’t think of one that more dramatically shoots itself in the foot.” And even actors are getting tired of the onslaught.
Viola Davis, an Oscar nominee for Doubt who appeared in Madea Goes to Jail, told Entertainment Weekly: “People feel the images [in his movies] are very stereotypical, and black people are frustrated because they feel we should be more evolved. But there are very few black images in Hollywood, so black people are going to his movies. That’s the dichotomy.
October 5th, 2009 at 1:25 am
Sad shit that the cell door closing on Tip closed everyone’s minds to what he did in the past year….Paper Trail sales, all those singles, TV show, performances, features….he shoulda been in there at LEAST where Jeezy is, but really top 5. And no Em? That’s questionable…..

I applaud the MTV Brain Trust for not putting Eminem on the list…even though some selections are flat out laughable (Raekwon shouldn’t be there)…after a decade of worship of the dude, it’s good to see they didn’t feel the need to pretend like niggas actually give a shit about Eminem…Relapse had absolutely zero impact on hip hop, shit came and went…sure it went platinum, but it did in that Flo-Rida/Black Eyed Peas type of way…like how they have #1 smash hits, with absolutey zero relevance among “urban” crowds…sure it appears that they cooked the books for Jigga (they delay the list almost a half of year, the last list came out may of ’08, and all of a sudden decide to release it a couple weeks after Jay’s album drops and all the overkill unprecedented promotion that only Jay gets)…and as a result of the delay Tip got snubbed (because of the 6 month delay Paper Trail and all the hits got completely ignored)…not putting Em there makes up for it a little bit

D-Block and Dipset fucking with 50 Cent now.
Cam is a bitch, that has an ego and did not accept.
It was weird seeing Uncle M and Papoose together. In their beef, a dude got jumped, got his face cut, and got hit with bats.

No disrespect to niggaz who hate on em^^^^^^ but he’s a dope MC regardless of how much your not feelin his music. He’s a better rapper than any in the top 5(including Jay) and killed every relevant person on the biggest song in HipHop rap this year, I don’t really pay attention to this MTv bullshit anyhow but, I really need somebody in this unrealistic list to diss Em on WAX and watch the destruction he would cause in a rappers career, Scholar I don’t know who’s point of view yor commenting from but it doesnt represtent mine thats for sure. Relapse was definetly relevant to HipHop but on some sick, sadistic,crazy type shit, but he can say untypical shit for obvious reasons of course,niggaz need to stop the denial when it comes to Em’s skill,he’s a monster, nuthin we can do about it.No what this list seems like it really is garbage

yo honestly NAHRIGHT..make a hottest MCs list, cuz yall got the info right here on ya page..ya constantly lookin for the latest and newest stuff, so you know whos hot and whos not, you know who got alot of mixtapes out and etc and who dont, make ur own list “Nahrights’ Hottest MCs 09″ and dont base it off who got twitter buzz fuck that.. its about MUSIC, whos puttin out GOOD MUSIC, whos actually HOT off of MUSIC! (tours & all that too, as long as its music related). then drop the list in Decemeber before the year ends, you’ll get alot of traffic to this site too yo, Def do it, that will be the REAL “Hottest MCs List”!!!! (Eminem not making the list is pure bullshit! and make it a top 20!!)
October 5th, 2009 at 2:33 am
Not hating, but I don’t see what all the fuss is about with Drake. The mixtape has great and all, but he hasn’t said anything that has just blew me away. Good artist, but a bit overhyped to me…..Just my thoughts people….just my thoughts
October 5th, 2009 at 2:36 am
Wayne got overrated on this thing heavy, id even maybe put cudi over Wayne in this list, dude has just put out an album, has a single out been doing performances n shit, has Wayne even done anything worth mention this year? im internatonal so maybe i missed something…
—————————————————————————————
Well let’s see…since the last time they put out the list, Wayne has
Put out the biggest album in years…the biggest hip hop album since ’05…no album released since has approached it, and is currently sitting somewhere around 3.4 million units sold
At this very moment is on 4 songs in the top 100…including the #2 song in the country…and has pretty much owned urban radio non-stop for the past 3 years…Always Strapped, Every Girl, and Succesful were inescapable this summer…helped give Keri Hilson her first hit which finally allowed her to release her album after months and months of stalling with Turning Me On
Posted the single most successful hip hop touring year EVER…Up In Smoke…Hard Knock Life…Anger Management…Best of Both Worlds..etc….none of them, no other tour in hip hop history grossed more than Wayne did this year
Put on the biggest new rookie rapper since Kanye and 50, gave him shine then signed him to his label (Drake)…same thing with the first potentially relevant female rap act since Eve…and has Young Money poised to be the next preeminent Bad Boy/Death Row/Ruff Ryders/No Limit/(Hot Boys era)Cash Money/Roc-A-Fella styled rap dynasty
Become a bonified pop culture icon…from writing for ESPN to prime time interviews with Katie Couric…
That you suggest that Kid fucking Cudi has done more worth mentioning, borders of the insane

October 5th, 2009 at 2:58 am
okay…no eminem? and nobody is alil bit upset? he didn’t have an impact on the urban market? i don’t understand how Kanye Did? 808′s wasn’t even an urban hip hop LP yet they put it in the arguement of why he’s even on the list, let alone why so high. Drake’s hottness surpassed wayne’s once he got that #1 single off a mixtape. so he shouldve been 2nd. but hottest MC and NO EMINEM? Like Fif said the fight is fixed and the winners are Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group…check the stats every body on that list except Rae is signed under either one. in this case Jay-z deals with both so no shocker there being he just released an Album and re-released the Def Jam blueprints. But No EMINEM after the impact he had? Crack A Bottle was #1 for like a month!! and barely on an album..it was practically a street banger that hit the radio. Relapse was #1 in 14 countries. and just in case we forgot…Relapse 2 is still the most highly anticipated Album. Eminem not on the list? and this is MTV? i figure after the T Swift incident they would shit on Ye’ but EM? wow.
MTV’s list was bogus from the get go, its all marketing and promotion..YES. but being the biggest music outlet in the world you have a very huge following and impact on who is top dog…but y’all took way too much payola for this to happen… Sway should be ashamed of himself. (calling KRS-One)

This guy Dre was offended at Game being on the list last year ??? Please Game better than any of these fools…..we talking bout rappin right ?? You need to open your ears Dre. This is all hip-pop. Dont get me started on fifty…how is he not top ?? i dont understand anymore its all lollipop hip pop and gayness with tight jeans and tight tanktops and mohawks.Please lets get it right whats hip hop and what is pop music cause people these days dont know ! Example how does 808 and heartbreaks get nominated for best hip hop album ?? How?
October 5th, 2009 at 6:07 am
Wow….They had Rae, Rick Ross and Jay rightfully at number 1….and yet they still found a way to fuck up the list by not putting Eminem.
October 5th, 2009 at 6:11 am
This list stays being invalid cause at the end of the day it’s 8 people working at a studio in Times Square who go think what 15-25 year olds are listening to on there block in Brooklyn and Queens is a relection of everyone worldwide.
I dont even like Eminem like that but when you have the highest selling rap album of the year and your comeback album is somewhat critically acclaimed, how do you not get on the list?
I mean I love Fab but he should have been on there in 2007 not 2009, no one is bumping that outside of New York.
October 5th, 2009 at 6:16 am
Jay-Z, Kanye West, Lil Wanye, Drake=Illuminati Choice to mislead the youth and “feeble minded”…I know somewhere Pac’s like “Damn…”

SMFH @ 50 “uniting” all the New Yawk rappers, now that he’s fallen off HARd, all them niggas combined wont sell a million records combined on their next releases.
GRODT 50 would have be sh!tting them broke niggas, but in this “climate” and with the “space” that he’s in, with his “aggressive content” flopping, the “consumers” get to see We Are The World 50……
50 lost
October 5th, 2009 at 8:03 am
Not really mad at this at all, even with my loathing of all things Young Money.
October 5th, 2009 at 8:06 am
Altho’ I don’t know how Eminem can sell 1.5m of an album and not be considered “Hot”. If they’re going on the intangible of “hot”, then sales gotta factor in. They had to have done that on purpose as a future “controversy” for Eminem (aka another MTV sitdown with him), or nobody listened to “Relapse” which, while not perfect, was equally the kind of concept album that 808′s and OB4CL2 was. Bah.
October 5th, 2009 at 8:11 am
Land basically slaughted it, but i dont think Ghostface album is that bad. Kinda like it actually. Nice vibe. [n]
October 5th, 2009 at 8:28 am
Smh @ white boys getting mad that no one thought Em was hot, this is truth man, no one cared about that album….jesus just hop Em comes harder next time….
October 5th, 2009 at 8:33 am
the list is about whose got the craziest buzz right now. so the list is accurate.
i’m more concerned with the panelists….these people are the furthest thing from hip hop authorities.
October 5th, 2009 at 8:43 am
#1 – Jay Z
#2 – Eminem
#3 – Drake
#4 – Kanye
#5 – Wayne
now that’s how it shouldve been IMO.

October 5th, 2009 at 9:10 am
what was the point of the fans votes? Em came in first in the fan poll 50 second ross 3rd and Budden 4th, obviously they didn’t want Budden on the list, hence the reason they pushed the vote back when he was in first by a large margain and yeah co-sign the pushback to allign with BP3. Meanwhile you have like 5 different rappers who didn’t even get 1% of the vote on this top 10, so what the fuck was the point ?
October 5th, 2009 at 9:12 am
not to mention some of these people haven’t even released anything in a year or 2, not that I’m surprised MTV would pull this bullshit, but why act like the fans vote count when they obviously don’t

…… truth, I’m not even mad at the list its MTV so who cares, but don’t hoodwink people into thinking their vote matters, Em easily had the most votes and doesn’t make this list, not to mention he didn’t even know he that forever verse was a collab with kanye drake and wayne and he crushed them all, plus they said half the reason 50 made the list was because he started thisis50.com, but joebuddentv came first, hate it or love it he started the going online movement, he he might of went too far with it, he has said so himself, but still he started that not fif ….

Well i’m gonna see my homeboy today, get got beat with a bat at the club saturday, what makes it so fucked up is, he was with 2 chicks, doc says he lost a eye, and seperated his sholder.
But the news is still blurry cause no one knows what for, the girls said the nigga just walked up to him and just started swinging. When I spoke to the chicks they was in shock, they kept telling me that the shit that happen kept replaying in there mind all night.
Now my lil homie was going ham, saying he’s gonna stay strapped at all times, and to be honest, I don’t blame him.
This whole summer i’ve been tryna distance myself from my old friends, but when shit like this happens, you can’t do nothing but feel there pain, makes me wanna do something, cause homie was a good nigga

October 5th, 2009 at 9:44 am
I almost shead a tear last night
but the girls was telling me homie is in good spirits, and me knowing him since we was in the 3rd grade, I belive that.
Shit like this make you wanna hurt something.
But all I think about is the shit we use to do to niggas, and how there fam felt. Man this shit is crazy

MTV is continuing Viacom’s onslaught/violation/reformation of hip hop culture. And y’all niggas eat this shit up like some bullshit called “the hottest mc’s list” actually matters. The hottest mc probably isn’t even signed. This should be called “The most marketable/radio-friendly/record-selling/popular with the kids rap artist list” Quite simply, this is pure cow dung.

October 5th, 2009 at 11:19 am
this is bullshit! eminem is dropping two albums in one year (better than bluprint 3) and he cant even make top 10???? you have got to be shitting me, fuck these guys they need a new panel of people with knowledge, where was wale??? where was skyzoo????? this program is a fail!
October 5th, 2009 at 11:42 am
LOL at this list. Every year MTV comes out with this list I can’t help but laugh. What is a Drake?? I wish he would just go away I cannot stand his music or hearing about him all the time, who cares. He is just not that talented.
Cudi shoulda made the list, and I don’t even like Eminem that much be he DEFINITELY should be on the list. Rick Ross is only good cuz of his beats and his guest features. Jeezy fell off. Weezy fell off. Jay-Z is soooo oversiced its rediculous, he should be on the list, but #1 No way.
Oh yea and they shoulda put Shwayze on the list :)
October 5th, 2009 at 12:08 pm

October 5th, 2009 at 12:19 pm
no nas, no jadakiss,no blackthought,no hell rell,no cory gunz, no loyd banks, no em, no joe budden, no mos def, no saigon, no red cafe,no talib, no royce. evryone in this blog is bad mouthing jay z atleast hova is a real MC. i’ll give them some sorta credit for putting rae, fab, and 50 some what on there.But if they put an artist like gucci on the list then why not include soulja boy. I dont fuck with soulja’s particular brand of rap music but i can recognize the fact he had a solid year commercial wise. Mtv’s pannel for this list are clowns, a few look gay the others look like and sound like they skim threw main stream work without giving the hardcoe real MC’s a chance. i respect sway and the 2 dudes from mixtape daily but if they voted for gucci and officer ricky and not jadakiss and em than they are just like the rest of the pannel str8 gay!!! And Hov deserve #1 on n e 1′s list cuz he put it down so hard only thing niggas can say is he look like a camel. niggas cant challange his music, his career, his money or his bitch.
October 5th, 2009 at 12:38 pm
no t.i, no pap, no ghost, no killer mike, i thought this was an MC list all it is, is a most visable list. except hov, wayne,fab,rae and drake. mtv needs a real hip hop street team to do real hip hop work cus every year this shit str8 blows.
October 5th, 2009 at 12:42 pm
OMFG eminem was on top on by the votings!!!!!!!!!!!! xDDDD eminem is MUCH better than everybody on this list(maybe except jay-z i dont like him but i most respect him he is a fucking genious like em) omg mtv=fucking bullshit!!! they just dont like the fact eminem is the hottest mc xDDD relapse 2 will fuck mtv and all mcs(except jay-z)
October 5th, 2009 at 1:10 pm
mtv is not mtv anymore! they have no credit in the hip hop game i ant even a Em dick rider but he is way better then jezzy an gucci, this is the gayest list i have ever herd an no JOE BUDDENS SHUD NOT BE ON THE LIST ROYCE SHOULD HE RAPS CIRCLES AROUND THAT DUDE FUCK MTV

October 5th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
like Royce said “this rap shit done gone a different way” Eminem should be #1, 50 top 5, also Joe Budden should be in the top 10. Fuck Rick Ross! He is a fucking shit rapper! 50 murder Rick Ross this year how is he above 50, I really don’t get it. Wayne wants to drop a rock album that alone should get him off this list. MTV you suck, I fucking hate you
October 5th, 2009 at 3:30 pm
This list is bullshit O’ manya
50 destroyed Officer Ricky and he’s still over him?!?!?! How could that happen?
And no Eminem on the list, god damned, these mofus must be drunken or something.
Must be rollin a lot of money at MTV for that piece of shit!!!!!
Fuck of MTV, all you see on this shitty television is the fat ass of Hulk Hogan and his retarded family and some little fucking 15 year old wannabefuckers who think they’re prince charles and princes diana themselfes just cause of the money of their parentretardfuckers!!!!

im not saying kanye has no talent. He does need to stick his head in a bucket of ice and cool his ego the f**k down. His publicity stunts/media dick-riding/voice of a generation is straight fishdicks. He got nice clothes, auto-tune, nice production, pretty decent music in general… but Id rather listen to artists who dont jack off to their reflection in the mirror. just make your music and shut up, if your real people will feel that, not everybody wants to be force fed your opinion on “EVERYTHING HOT”. If the general public hears “this is ….” enough, especially from a celebrity, they begin to believe that sh*t.

don’t you think its biased that the whole list was post poned so that it consides just after their favorate rappers dropped their album so that they would definately be high on the list its somewhat bullshit that they can manage to put 50 cent on who hasnt had any good songs in how long and no album yet they put him on for everything except mcing and leave eminem out who had relapse (platinum) , forever, mariah diss, mtv awards, and funny ppl movie, and t.i. who had paper trail 2 number 1 singles at one point 1&2 and they have the nerve to mention kanyes verse on swagger like us which is t.i.’s song not to mention mtv show and songs from behind bars 50 or fab i think fab shouldn’t have been on and kanye shouldn’t have been as high drake should have been highier than lil wayne and gucci should not have been above jeezy this list is officialy gone garbage the way of the source, used to have respect for it now i could give a fuck less

I laugh when major corporations tell niggas from the*alleged*streets (or cyberweb) what is “Hot” or what isnt…
I laugh when you same music peeps debate, list out, and defend who YOU think shouldve/shouldnt have been on said list, and why the corporation is wrong..
slave niggas, i tell you.
Like (pre Hollywood) IceCube said… TURN OFF THAT MFKN RADIO….
Like (pre Hollywood) CUBE+PE said.. BURN HOLLYWOOD BURN….
you dudes need to chill and realize its just a list by a bunch of herbs sittin in a conference room…
Words of advice.. if u play something and YOU think its dope, BANG IT.
If you play it for your crew and they agree, BANG it when u roll out…
Who honestly cares what other people think is banging. Me personally, I dont care what ya’ll think, and ya’ll definitely dont influence what i like or dont like.
