Yep, it’s that time of the year again. MTV’s Brain Trust gather once again to name the Hottest 10 MCs in the game. Last year, Jay-Z took the top spot, while Eminem failed to make the list. Blasphemy! Find out who makes the cut starting next Monday.
Lloyd bank better make it
2 me Hov #1 but I kno fasho fasho its goin 2 Em @ da # 1 spot cuz u Em stans spazed thee fuk out last year lmao!
Obviously Em will on the list. #1 album for months + new videos coming out frequently + collabs + freestyles. That makes you relevant all year round.
Pusha will be on it somewhere, probably 8 or 9.
“Lloyd bank better make it”
HAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Hol’ up…
bwuahahahahahaahahahahahhaahahaahahahhaha
D o

YOU CAN HATE ME NOW!
Just put Em at number 1, MTV dont want anymore trouble from Em Stans.
These lists don’t matter honestly. Nor do Grammys, Forbes List rankings, etc. It’s all about the music.
Waka should be 4 on the list it’s HOTTEST NOT
THE BEST
My top 10 hottest MCs list (in no order for obvious reasons) NOT MY FAVORITE OR PERSONAL BEST BUT PPL WHO ARE HOT
Eminem
Rick Ross
Drake
BoB
JCole
JayZ
Kanye
Big Boi
Nicki Minaj
and I know they gonna put him up there……Waka Flocka…….
MTV lists are irrelevant, they make top rapper lists and then put people like Gucci Mane on it, lol
New Entries – Nicki Minaj, B.O.B., and at number 10……
wait for it……
10. Lil B
Oh shit I forgot about BANKS! Swap out flocka for banks
@Capri lmao
um yah eminem is gonna be # 1 cause its mtv..b.e.t’s sounds more intresting
Teflon Don album of the year? GFOH Sway.
Fuck MTV and all that shit
should go like this in order relevance this year…
1) Eminem
2) Drizzy Drake Rogers
3) Nicki Minaj
4) Lloyd Banks
5) BoB
6) J Cole
7) Jay- z
8) Kanye West
9) Lloyd Banks
10) Ricky Ross

LOL@Chris! My sentiments exactly.
^ word
Hmmmmm…. Well, this is My top 5 right now for the list… 1)Eminem 2)Kanye 3)Nicki 4)Jay-Z and 5)Drake… The rest I can care less about because, I know B.O.B or Whiz Khaifa isnt going to make the list.. Even tho B.O.B had one of the best albums of this year, and Whiz has a NICE buzz right now… But anyway as long as Em is in the Top 2, Im cool.. Because I cant lie, Nicki is killing shit right now, and Kanye is killing shit right now.. Drake is doing good but, AT THE MOMENT Nothing is really going on with him…. I cant wait, even tho I doubt I will be Complaining again like I did last year… Lol

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
LMAO CO-F*CKIN-SIGN!!!
If i don’t see Banks on the list..
Hottest MC’s list? well drake, wayne, nicki, rick, waka, these chumps are not MC’S!!!! When will MTV get it? fuck outta here.
Rick Ross
Gucci
Drake
Kanye West
Lil Wayne
NIkki Manaj
Eminem
Jay Z
Plies
Wakka
Maybe 2 of these are in my top ten but Im guessing this is where MTV will be headed if Sucker Free Sundays are of any relavence.
co sign chris..i dont give two fucks who and who doesnt make the list because a round table of niggaz aint gonna change my perspective on whos my favourite
whats so funny about Banks making it?
He had a hit (BBB), and an even bigger one is out right now (Start It Up)
All his Blue Fridays tracks are fire.
1. Eminem (Biggest year out of any artist in terms of billboard sales and Number #1 Records)
2. Drake (TML sold well, signed to sprite and kodak…one hell of a year…two major tours
3. Nicki Minaj ( What Else can Be Said….single handledly taking over mainstream rap
4. Rick Ross (Album of the Year in Teflon Don, Summer Smash records)
5. Lil Wayne ( No ceilings mixtape, IANAHB, what hasnt this guy done except release a classic album)
6. Kanye West (Good Fridays, Powerful first single, Return to the pennacle of Rap)
7. Lloyd Banks ( Return to Rap forefront, great year for him)
8. J Cole (wouldve been higher but needs to deliver that Album, most consistent rapper today)
9. Jay Z ( Dope Verses but he hasnt really rapped by himself much this year…he stayed relevant business wise and by being featured on dope records)
10. Pusha T ( snuck in the latter part of the year, really giving us G.O.O.D music….)
All i’m gonna say is they can’t have a top 10 list and not include Wiz Khalifa. Dude doing a national tour off a mixtape. who got a bigger buzz on the internet than Wiz? I think J. Cole will eventually make it but not this year. He hasn’t done enough to make it. Nicki will definitely make it. She single handily bought the female MC back to prominence. Ross should make the list because he had the hottest single of the year with BMF. Em will definitely take the #1 spot just based on sales. Wayne will make the list he definitely did his thing with Rebirth and his new joint. Jay will make the list again. anytime you make 63 million in one year you deserve to make the list. Drake will also make the list because he’s the only other rapper besides Em to go platinum. B.O.B will make the list hes dope and did numbers too. the test i can’t call. waka flocka or gucci should make the list. the killing the streets right now. a guy that I think should make it but won’t is Big K.R.I.T. Next to Kush and Orange Juice K.R.I.T. Wuz Here was the hottest mixtape of the year. Should be interesting though!!!!
The list ain’t long enough for Banks to be on it.
anyways.
Eminem
Drake
Kanye
Ross
Gucci
Wayne
Nicki
Banks
BoB
not the best.
Maaaaan I bet Gucci will make #1 and he’s not even a fucking MC!!!!!!!
fuck MTV.
they dont know how to make lists for shiiiiiiiiiiiiit
how the fuck is Jay $1 last year when he didnt even make a dope line in his whole album!?
they judge on singles….they dont even take time to listen to the whole album.
FUCK MTV……….FUCK MTV……………..FUCK MTV
Nobody cares who our tops are. Just to be honest. Its about who they want the public to see as relevant and on top so those ppl keep sellin
no order
eminem
jay z
kanye west
lil wayne
drake
nicki minaj
gucci mane
rick ross
b.o.b
lloyd banks
its not about who can rap the best its about who the hottest is!
1.)Eminem
2.)Jay Z
3.)Drake
4.)Nikki Minaj
5.)Kanye West
6.)Lloyd Banks
this will be the list
1.Drake
2.Drake
3.Drake
4.Drake
5.Drake
6.Drake
7.Drake
8.Drake
9.Drake
10.Drake
and MOST definitely NOT my choices, that’s what it’s gonna be tho HA!
@Zone6 you missed out one part Hottest “Mc’s” and Waka flocka aint a muthafuckin mc you idiot just some commericial abc rapping bitch
Banks should be on the list but there I dont expect mtv to put him on they love nicki minaj and drake types to much u no there gonna put lupe and b.o.b. on the list kanye will be number 1
i think Lloyd Banks is a top 10 hottest right now there is no way he will be on the list
last year the fans voted and they did not put any of the input in there
Unless they find some reason to exempt him, Eminem should make the list.
Black people say Jay is the greatest and white people say Em is the greatest. NOW when you’re electing who the HOTTEST is, that’s a different story. It’s undeniably Eminem who has a crazy buzz, still at the top of the charts, is predicted to sweep the grammys and is the highest selling artist this year in any genre. It’s a no brainer whether you like it or not
Em is definitely #1
if Banks doesnt make the list and some wack ass rapper like Wacka or Gucci makes it, its FUCK MTV FOR LIFE
@Delejayn your list is legit even though I hate about 4 people on there. You can’t deny that they are hot right now…..
i gotta sick feeling in the pit of my stomach they going to put either nicki or drake as #1 and im telling you if lil wayne makes the fucking lists thats it im going to boycott this mtv list bullshit and form a petition to shut it down muthafucker been in jail for a year Rebirth was wack, IANAHB was wack.. Celings Mixtape ok its was ite and doing a video with em.. which was done before he went to prison so its not relevant now
If Banks not up there and Em is not # 1 or 2 , MTV loses all credibility which is not much to begin with
J . Cole also needs to be there even tho no album def. hottest underground
i agree with @delejayn. thats exactly how the list SHOULD be. But mtv is gonna be on some bullshit again. IMO Jay shouldn’t even be on the list. If Em wasn’t hot enough to make it last year, then Jay isn’t this year. Yeah he did stuff but hotness level is equal to em last year so he SHOULD NOT make the list. and they are for sure gonna have waka flocka flame.
RICK ROSS IS HANDS DOWN NUMBER 1
Airbody love me
You ain’t fuking wit my dougie
Soulja boy tell them should be namb 2
And namb one goto the big homie yg toot it and boot it
drake its gonna be the #1 ..all the mtv interviews , behind the scenes and shit must have a reward or something . jay its not #1 right now ..maybe kanye or eminem … but crazy things happen (ross)

LMAO @Truest..Dylan will at least be the top 5 emcees!
The people that sit on this panel are pretty legit. I feel that they are fit to make a decision like this. People keep saying MTV isn’t fit to speak on the hottest MC’s in the game but this isn’t the MTV that you are thinking of.
dont forget wiz!

CONSIDERING ITS MTV. THEY WILL PUT THE WHOLE YOUNG MONEY FAGGOT CLICK IN THERE IN FRONT OF EMINEM BECAUSE THATS HOW WACK THEY ARE. IF EMINEM DOES NOT MAKE THE LIST THEN MTV CAN FUCK THEMSELVES
50 CENT
Rap Radar………not for the weak and sensitive(movie preview voice) HAHA!
My top ten hottest MC’s, fuck MTV
1. Eminem (Recovery record sales were unreal)
2. Kanye (Good fridays, Power, Runaway)
3. Nas (Distant Relatives is way too slept on)
4. Rick Ross (BMF, Free Mason, Aston Martin Music were all top 25 songs for me in 2010)
5. Big Boi (Sir Lucious was the third best album imo behind Recovery & Distant Relatives)
6. Bun B (Trill OG was dope)
7. Drake (TML didn’t live up to my expectations, but it was still nice)
8. J. Cole (Who Dat, Higher, The Blow Up unofficial mixtape)
9. Lil Wayne (I’m Not A Human Being was decent)
10. B.o.B (My favorite album of the year, but don’t consider most of the songs hip hop)
IS IT BETTER FAGGOTS? HA HA!
YOU CAN HATE ME NOW!
I AM THE BEST COMMENTER ON THIS FUCKING SITE! ‘CAUSE I THIN IT’S A JOKE!
I AM NON-SENSE AND MENTALLY ILL! IT’S MY MAGIC TRICK! LOVE THE HATERS! HA HA!
YOU CAN HATE ME NOW!
1. Donnis 2. Jim jones 3. Theee thom hardy 4. Consequence 5. Bean Sigel 6. 7. Mysonne 8. Ace Hood 9. Bun-B 10. Pill
MTV sucks, even if Em is at #1 MTV still sucks ass.
Em, and Big Boi better be high high high up on the list, fuck Jay, just because you made it on the forbes list doesn’t mean you are a hot MC. Jay should be excluded from the list, no hate I like Jay, but he hasn’t done any good shit musically this year. Except for a concert but that’s it.
1) Em (Relapse, enough said)
2) Kanye (GOOD Fridays are the best thing in music right now)
3) Ricky (TD was….awesome)
4) Jay (the man sells out stadiums, come on now)
5) BoB (So many singles off that album, he’s the next Kanye)
6) Drizzy (If only for that Aston Martin verse, verse of the year)
7) Nikki (A lot of buzz for a girl without an album or a consistent mixtape)
8) Pusha (He’s finally making a move, lotsa exposure over the past month)
9) Lil Wayne (This junky stays in the news even from rikers)
10) J. Cole (finish your damn album, son)
If Eminem ain’t number 1…
MTV is a joke, but ill keep an eye out on this
OK FOOLS THE REAL LIST:
1. NICK CANNON
2. T.I.’S LIFE
3. WACKA FLOPA
4. GUCCI MANE
5. KID CUDI VS. WALE
YOU CAN HATE ME NOW!

this seems to be the most accurate of them all.
but T.I. & Bun B would trump Pusha T and J Cole.
Bun B = 5 mics. damn near classic LP with Trill OG. he killed the internet 1st with the song a day/song a week earlier this year.
T.I = Fuck a mixtape, Takers. came home and got busy..too bad he gotta do it all over again Next Year.
sometimes i think he likes being in the system.
J cole is maintaining but he ain’t hot. he like the new bleek. one hit away, he just gotta get on the radio heavy.
pusha t did sneak in at the end with the G.O.O.D. friday tracks but what happen to 09/14 mixtape?
not a fan of these “Industry” generated list. i feel the people are the “experts” since we are the biggest supporters of the music, wether its bought or downloaded, but at the end of the day it is the music that stands firm on whos the hottest. NOV 23. get em all!
If I may…. Ppl must keep in mind this list is just the opinions of so call “influential people” in the industry. I would like to know is what are they baseing these MC’s own because if its flow the its only right you include
FABOLOUS ( the funeral music mix tape was CRAZZY)
if its album sales the the crown goes to Em ( Most sold records of 2010 for a rap artist).
The Biggest Buzz would have to go to Nikki or BANKS (HFM2 cant wait!!!)
The most underratted MC would have to be B.O.B, Vado or Tyga ( let the HATE Start…lol)
Drake had a successful year
Rick Ross had the streets buzzed for a min ( but not worthy of best album sway)
The Most entertaining MC is no other then 50 cent ( and he even stepped his bars up as a featured artist on several R/B songs)
You cant add Lil Wayne cuz the man as been locked up for most of the Year ( so please dont try)
T.I has been occupied with the movie business and his new conviction ( Damn T.I)
and last but not least the most improved MC would be no other then Maino. (he really caught my attention this year…BROOKLYN!!!!!)
Special aknowlegment to Kanye West ( just to many features for my taste…one or two is cool but DAMN)
I agree with @delejayn for the most part except for order and the fact that you believe Pusha would be on the list after 1 significant feature and 2 regular ones and Waka flocka who had 2 Semi Hits on his own wont be and Gucci mane who is pretty much the hottest in the south won’t be. Im not a fan of Waka or Gucci in no shape form or fashion and I am a fan of Pusha and the Clipse from Day 1 but this is Mtv were talking bout and keep in mind this a Hottest List not Nicest. i think the order will be…
1. Eminem
2. Drake
3. Nicki Minaj
4. Rick Ross
5. Kanye West
6. Lil Wayne
7. Jay-Z
8. Waka Flocka
9. Gucci mane
10. Lloyd Banks
J Cole just doesnt do it for me…I need to hear more material i guess
Gucci and waka is nice sirdouglas but not better then banks
Shout out to Wiz Khalifa and Donnis……
Da Chicken Shack
I dont know about ross, he kinda came and went after the album dropped.
If eminem isn’t number 1, I have no idea what the fuck he would need to do to make it. Almost 3 million sold in 4 months, giant stadium shows, 2 #1 hot 100 singles, and most importantly, his music is still on point. He’s one of the most respected in the game. What else can he do to be a better rapper than get re-vitiligo and turn black.
this aint a list about Nicest its the hottest. i dont even like Gucci and Waka but they Buzzing hard. Banks just started bubbling again
1)Eminem
2)Drake
3)Rick Ross
4)BOB
5)Wiz khalifa
did anybody else seee that wayne is at #8?
Ain’t that yellow nigga on that panel
lol , i can’t imagine how full list will look like , of course i think em gonna be #1 , and im glad about it , but its MTV HOTTEST MC LIST!!! look how fucked up last years list was. If somehow all mtv drop dead and motherfuckers like them with lists like this too , then old school rap would be able to come back , cause mtv is for suckers who is rating music not by its content but about how hot it is .
1-Eminem
2-Slim shady
3-Marshal Mathers
4-jay-z
5-kanye west
6-j.cole
7.B.o.B
8-banks
9-wayne
10-nicki
@teejay , word up man . last year em did a lot more than those wiggas on the list , and they act like he not exist or something . FUCK MTV!
You guys are nuts kanye should easily take this! New amazing album blowing away music for free every Friday. Lol at anyone else takin this
btw , fuck sway for saying bullshit like , em wasn’t hot enough … and how can teflon don be album of the year ??? diddy probably paying mtv suckas , for saying shit like this .
@JOeyzz not saying this in a bad way but why would they put lupe in for? has hasn’t done much he I swear he wasn’t even in that list last year or year before. So why they would put him in this year without an album god knows. Just saying………its just gonna be ur usual people top 10 with few changes who gives a flying f*** what MTV think they can suck Rozay’s Cojones….The right one preferably.
Before anybody goes all crazy on me, if this was really about emceeing, most those pple wouldnt be on there. But since it’s all industry, and about who’s HOT, here’s who i think will be on that list, in no particular order :
– Jay-Z (MOST relevant, makes the MOST moves, his verse are the MOST anicipated and the most dissected, sells out stadiums, has a hand in pretty much everything, he’s almost 41, and just the fact alone that he’s considered for the HOT list at that age is beyond bonkers. He probably influenced anybody that will be on that list in some shape or form. He’s really an MC)
– Eminem (Crazy numbers, his omission from last year’s list was illogical, solid album, also sold out stadiums, comeback of the year. And like Jay, he’s really an MC)
– Drake (Very anticipated, very prolific, album did well, great transition from the mixtape game to the industry, a lot of touring, was pretty much on every record that came out, or at least it felt that way. Co-signed by the great ones (Jay, Em, etc)
– Rick Ross (Album of the year, relevant beats, guest verses, arguably had the most celebrated song/club banger of the summer)
– Kanye West (The MOST prolific, GOOD Fridays songs, the love for the game, a great comeback year from the Taylor Swift gate, a very anticipated solo album and collabo album with Jay)
– Nicki Minaj (Created a cult of followers, the MOST important rap artist of the moment – apart from Jay, Em and Kanye -, innovative, stood her own on a track with 2 of the most celebrated rappers of the past decade, a very anticipated solo album, kept YM afloat with Drake while Wayne served time)
– Lil’ Wayne (Created buzz even while in jail, gets credit in a way for Nicki and Drake’s success, has the most important rap label/movement of the moment, very prolific even while in jail)
– Fabolous (Mixtape of the year, a myriad of brilliant guest verses, the MOST sought after rapper for r&b remixes)
– Young Jeezy (A lot of touring, had one of the best club bangers of the year, a lot of guest verses)
– J. Cole (ROOKIE of the year, the MOST anticipated upcoming release, a lot of co-signs)
who put ross and gucci on the list? them faggots suck dick.
wtf has some black people got against eminem? he aint fucking pop just because he aint talking about bitches, cars, hood and bling and drugs guns all the fucking time.. no1 wants to hear that shit anymore it dont sell gangster rap is over you just got these fake gangster puppets spitting so soft that a 3 year old could understand.. nothing tough about it trust me soon you gonner have gucci, waka focker making pop videos just to sell so FUCK YOU DONT HATE ON MY OPINION!!
BE ANOTHER WACK ASS LIST FROM MTV… THE ONLY LIST I WOULD PUT DRAKE, GUCCI & NICKI ON IS MOST OVERRATED NIGGAS OF ALL TIME
DONT HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Eminem is the obvious #1, the other possible candidates are as is:
Jay-Z
Kanye
Nicki Minaj
Drake
Rick Ross
Ludacris (dude had his fourth #1 album and was on EVERY SONG as well as having his own hits)
Gucci Mane (eh)
Fabolous
Lil wayne (though he’s locked up, I think he may land between 6-10).
EMINEM will be 1
IMO if they really wanted to make this list legitimate they would make it like the Golden Globes were only industry niggas, including artists are allowed to vote and the voting is anynomous…that would be awesome….they wacka flocka and all those other cats would finally get the picture…when every talented person/peer in your industry thinks you are 6000 on a list of 6002 then maybe that will motivate you to STEP YOUR GAME UP!!
just a thought…
What about YELAWOLF?
1 – Em
2 – Dolla
3 – Jay-Z
4 – J. Cole
5 – Drake
@Kidd Billion@aire….
You have no idea about hip hop at all. Stick to listening to your commercial radio shit with no concept, little boy.
You kids do realise that hottest doesn’t mean best. It just means who’s more commercial and played on the radio for little kids. The best MC’s don’t even make this list, because the people who do the list have no idea at all about the music. Andre 3000, Nas, Black Thought and Big Boi don’t even get a look in on these lists yet they are 4 of the best MC’s around.
The list should be called the “commercial pop artist list.”
mtv sucks ass!
mtv hates eminem they didnt even put shady as people that meant the most to hip hop now there realizing that hes the best rapper to ever live clearly hes number one and they spelled mc wrong its EMcee

1. EMINEM! bitches for sure! Long as Onika, Small Gayne and Aubrey (who might have the best POP album :P) and Ross don’t make it I’m cool.
But I take this shit as a grain of salt. What does mtv know?
LIL WAYNE WONT MAKE IT THIS YEAR AND IF HE DOES HES GOING TO BE ANYWHERE BEHIND TOP 5 BUT…
-ATLEAST HE GOT YOUNG MONEY UP AND BOTH NICKI/DRAKE WILL MAKE IT IN THE TOP 5
BUT 2011 THE LIST IS JUST GOING TO CONSIST OF LIL WAYNE FROM 1-10 NO OTHER RAPPER HAHA!!!!!
C4 x D4>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> YOUR MOM!
THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE WEEZY WEE!
MTV doesn’t have the merits to release a top 10 MC list. It’ll be a Hip POP list.
Cosign @Kidd Billion@ire
Im a fan of J.Cole but I dont think hes gonna make the list for some reason. Instead it might be Waka or Wiz.. they have a helluva buzz. Especially Wiz, his followers be hammering nails onto their genitalia LOL
these people should not have any right to have a say of who is hot and who is not. to not include eminem on last years list, you have got to be out of your mind. he was one of the most talked about mc’s and you didn’t even have a sticker of his name to put him atleast number 10. instead you had the young jeezy’s and gucci mane’s. pathetic. this is why mtv and bet are retards.
it goes like this
1)Eminem
2)Drake
3)Kanye
4)Rick Ross
5)Nicki Minaj
6)Wiz Khalifa
7)B.O.B
8)Jay-Z
9)Lloyd Banks
10)Ludacris
This stupid ass panel’s probably gonna include Gucci and Waka.
im pullin’ for catfish billay
They left Em off the list last year and this year the ass kissing is going to make all of us throw up and laugh.
mtv is about to put jay electronica at number one just so they can say they are hip hop
Deez Nuts better B #1 and Diz Dick better B #2. We tha hottest MCs N ur mouf, b!tches.
