Rick Ross: #1 Hottest MC In The Game

Sunday, February 19 2012 11:16 PM EST | Posted by: Amaya | Posted in: Blog, Focus

Drum roll please. According to MTV, Rick Ross has been crowned as this year’s Hottest MC In The Game Congrats to the Bawse.

Whether on his own singles (“You the Boss,” “I Love My Bitches”) or on tracks that he was featured on, the M-I-Yayo MC turned in multiple unforgettable performances. “Ima Boss” was technically Meek’s song, but the casual listener may have missed that fact. Lil Wayne’s “John” was basically a remix of the 2010 Ross track “I’m Not a Star,” and on the summer anthem “I’m on One,” Rozay flexed his muscle alongside Drake and Weezy.

Previously: #10 Wale l #9 Wiz Khalifa l #8 Big Sean l #7 Meek Mill | #6 Jay-Z | #5 Lil Wayne | #4 Nicki Minaj | #3 Kanye West | #2 Drake

  2. recordpusher says:

    Officer Officer Officer….

  3. PAUL DEAN says:

  4. PAUL DEAN says:

    gold in 5 weeks for jeezy….

    10 million downloads for a mixtape? and no album out…. no platinum album…

    niggas go on radio talkn fly, niggas catch health problems….niggas going to court for identity crisis… and niggas is really defending their fraudulent behavio

  5. Ali says:

    this is just bullshit. this guys sucks, his flow is wack and his lyrics are awful.
    this is probably the worst list i’ve ever seen

  6. PAUL DEAN says:

    mmg da only niggas that brag about they tapes going gold and platinum…. ross said his mixtape went diamond hahahahahahahh

  7. Tucq says:

    i would’ve thought he would have been #3, though i’m not mad at this. to me, drake is #1, wayne is #2, because those cats came out with high cd sales, and ross has yet to do that. and i put drake higher than wayne because wayne’s album wasnt universally applauded.

  8. Rapfan says:

    This is disgusting. No mention of Eminem or Royce at all. Ross paid for all these, i dont know who makes these judgements.

  9. The Great One says:

    Him before Kanye? Kanye dropped TWO albums and one won a grammy. And what have Jay done in 2011 but have a baby? NOTHING! Kanye killed him on every track on WTT. And Wiz year was in 2010 his buzz died in 2011 all his fans are white anyway. Jeezy should replace Nicki spot why? Real Is Back was the hottest mixtape of the summer…. Yeah he pushed TM:103 back since ’09 and dropped it in 2011 and went gold not many people could do that. Meek before Cole? At least Cole has an album out….take that back a GOLD album out.

  10. COLD DEATH says:

    “MAN, I JUST HEARD MY CHECK TO MTV WAS CLEARED. I’M HONORED TO HAVE PAID FOR MY #1 SPOT.” *WINKS AT YN WHO’S BEHIND THE CAMERA*

    HATE ME NOW!

  11. Hip-Hop Fiend says:

    This fat fucker is wack. His lyrics ain’t shit. He never had stong record sales. Drake and Kanye put out quality music.

  12. Tim Lee VA Stand Up says:

    THE WORST LIST I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY FUCKING LIFE. YOU GUYS FUCKING SUCK DICK.

  13. Hip-Hop Fiend says:

    *strong

  14. Timofey A says:

    “Take Care is a near perfect album” -COME ON. THESE NIGGAS SHOULD NOT BE ON THE PANEL DOE

  15. Tim Lee VA Stand Up says:

    RAP RADAR

    THE FACT THAT YOUR POSTING THIS AS IF YOU RESPECT ANY OF THE DECISIONS MADE ON SAID SUBJECT IS FUCKING PREPOSTEROUS, THIS ENTIRE LIST IS A FUCKING TRAVESTY. PLEASE STOP RECOGNIZING THIS AS AN OFFICIAL LIST.

    TIM LEE

  16. Brick says:

    I don’t know why everyone’s up in arms about this list. We’re talking about a list made by a network that within that last couple of years has only been profitable off the exploitation of young Italians and white trash pregnant teenagers. MTV stopped caring about music back in ’04/’05, so this list, IMO, holds no merit whatsoever.

  17. zmz says:

    Brick speaks the truth tho

  18. Hip-Hop Fiend says:

    Sway loses all credibilty.

  19. richard says:

    ahha who the hell is big sean and why is he in there?!? id put mac miller before him got way sicker hits and is constanly puttin out music. No em in the list? shits garbage

  20. Donn says:

    Brick and zmz = same person

  21. Maniak says:

    Jay-Z could eat the last 5 easily. MTV don’t know shit about Hip-Hop.

  22. Belize says:

    Wheres Ace Hood, Fat Joe, Pitbull, and Snoop Dogg?

  23. zmz says:

    Donn and Sway = same person

  24. Derek says:

    how the fuck is he number 1? Shaheim reid bias much….

    Wheres Ace Hood, Fat Joe, Pitbull, and Snoop Dogg?

    ^FUCKING YOUR MOMS.

    HOW THE FUCK THEY SLEEP ON NAS???????? NASTY WAS A FUCKING HIT!

    WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

  26. M.T says:

    LOOOOOL. im honestly surprised 2 chainz wasnt on this list. How is Ross at #1 tho. ? He released self made which was garbage and had some mediocre features. The only good thing he dropped was Rich Forever and that was hot mostly cuz of the features. This list wasnt based on anything. They probably just drew names from a hat.

  27. STINKMEANER says:

    Rap Radar is officially dead to me. ya’ll dont get to have opinions if your opinions are this bad.

  28. STINKMEANER says:

    oh i gotta apologize to rap radar, i thought this was your personal list, but i see its MTVs. nevermind the shit i said above

  29. RealHipHopBack says:

    WYF HAAAAAA

  30. FRIED CHICKEN, MAC & CHEESE, CATFISH, GRITZ, CORNBREAD, WATERMELON, KOOL AID, SUNFLOWER SEEDS, & MALT LIQUOR says:

    Nas will never be on this list because he a nigger. Remember Eminem top this list, and Nas has yet to make the list once.

  31. Black Shady says:

    was expected

  32. Donn says:

    Shout out to my impersonators

    Second, when your talking about HOTT MC’s, Ross constantly put out material, Im not even a huge fan and honestly if I hear one more fucking Ross song with the same beat I’ma kill myself but I can honestly say, where ever I went , I heard Rick Ross. Niggas want to discredit Drake cus he sings, ok that’s cool, lyrically he raps mostly about women and fame, we can all agree to that, Ross’ subject matter and poetic lyrics make his stories vivid.

    Discredit Ross for being an officer, if you want. But if your going to discredit Ross for that then discredit all the other rappers who buy rented cars and jewelry and brag about shit they don’t have, exaggerate selling a grams of weed with selling cocaine, like honestly, half the niggas who rap today are exaggerating their stories so u can fuck off with that argument. Kanye beats everyone in quality music but he did not do enough to be considered hot. If this was top RESPECTED MC’s we’d see Kendrick Lamar and Cole higher, but its not. Its HOTTEST. And u cant deny Ross is every fuckin’ where!!

    Third this is a fucking LIST, made by ten ppl. Ten ppl out of how many Americans?? U can make ur own list and put fucking Waka at the top for all I care, it doesn’t make ur list any more valid than MTV’s or the average Joe down the street cus we all will have our personal opinions. Bitching and crying won’t change our personal views

    #DONE

  33. The Nicca says:

    ross is on the list cuz his producers made good work

    drake is on the list cuz he is a jew

    kanye is on the list cuz he is a fucking genius

    nicki is on the list cuz everybody wanna lick her big titts and eat her big ass and tight pussy

    wayne is on the list cuz he is a retard and so are his fans

    jay-z is on the list cuz of his lil camel baby

    the rest is on the list cuz they all suck!!!

  34. Reg says:

    wow I see no one here can think objectively, they just want they fav rapper on the list… How would EM, Royce, Pitbull, fat joe, snoop or Nas be on the list, they did nothing in 2011… And yes Take Care was an almost perfect album…

  35. truth says:

    fuck mtv they hated

  36. No respect says:

    I got no respect for this list …when Nas completely destroyed Ross on triple beam.. and made him sound like a nicca w/ down syndrome

  37. Donn says:

    ^ Thank YOU!!! @ REG—–. My favorite isn’t even #1 and I’m not bitching cus my fav didn’t do enough or put in as much work. Ppl are being bias rather than seeing the bigger picture

  38. #NotHatingJustSaying says:

    I heard Rick Ross playing on French radio this summer when I was visiting family this summer. Apart from Kanye no one deserved the #1 spot more then Ross. Who gives a shit if he’s officer Ricky, he might not be a real gangster but thats what makes him the best studio gangster rapper out right now. Cuz its like watching the Godfather, Scarface, and all that gangster mafioso lifestyle in your ears. He does it better then Game, 50, and any other remaining mainstream gangster rappers.

  39. smv says:

  40. Peace nah says:

    Rick Ross is affiliated with YMCMB so im cool with it. So long as Jay Z is not in top 5.. im happy. Peace

  41. Peace nah says:

    Jay Z not in top 5, and Lil Wayne is in it.. whats up.. the rest is whatever to me.

  42. Belize says:

    @REG I see your too fucking stupid to see that I was being sarcastic when I ask where Fat Joe, Pitbull, and Snoop.

  43. Former Bad Boy Employee says:

    Trust me when I tell you this nigga paid for his spot.
