After a successful year (and no album), Philly’s most wanted, Meek Mill comes in at #7 on MTV‘s Hottest MCs list. That’s a fair placement.
“For me, Meek is that real, real street music,” MTV News editor/writer Rebecca Thomas said. “As much as I’m a Drake fan, a [Big] Sean fan, all those people, I just think there are days you wake up and you need to hear ‘Ima Boss.’ If you didn’t feel ‘Tupac Back,’ if you didn’t feel ‘Ima Boss’ all last year, you’re dead.”
Previously: #10 Wale l #9 Wiz Khalifa l #8 Big Sean
Meek Millz > J.Coal….
Ha !
im 19 meek been doing this since i was 11/10 if you didn’t grow up listening to meek mills in philly you not really from here… i can admit meek flow used to be better and more hardcore but he deserve it so s/o to meek for holding our city down…im still upset j cole not on this list at all
They got this list all mixed up… 10 Meek….. 9Big Sean….. 8 Wiz….. 7 Cole…. 6 Wale
I’m sorry, but dude is just real average to me. I mean I respect his grind and puttin on for his city and shit, but lyrically he’s not that impressive compared to other rappers out here(J Cole, K Dot) I woulda put Wiz and Wale ahead of meek. But fuck it, this list is fucked up anyways. Also is in anybody on here from the south a meek mill fan??? just curious
Also when she says “real street music” I’m curious if she know’s exactly what that is.
If you didn
I Must Be a Zombie…
But Im a Boss Was Coo…
[…] Read the rest of this great post here […]
Lmao @ Jamel & Dr Dre
I must be a fucking zombie as well………..
Don’t agree here
1000% agree with “Really Doe?”
comparing him to DMX !!!!!! ya really crazy. This list keps losing credibility
I DONT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THIS BUT THIS IS GOIN TO ADD ALOT OF PRESSURE ON HIM BCUZ HE RELEASES HIS FIRST ALBUM THIS SUMMER SO HIS EXPECTATIONS ARE WAY HIGHER THAN WIZ,BIG SEAN,WALE,AND JCOLE FIRST ALBUM WAS
MTV is fo teenage girls
Imma boss was only hot cause of RICK ROSS VERSE.
1)Jay-z and Kanye west
2)Rick Ross
3) Drake
4)Lil Wayne sadly
Fuck MTV
i must be in the fuckin almighty afterlife because i didnt feel tupac back kill me now
IS THERE ANY WAY OF WATCHING THIS BULLSH!T OUTSIDE OF THE US? Pretty damn annoying that I can only see the titles of these MTV videos you always post. Think of your overseas fans you selfish chumps!
Meek Mill is dope but he gets the #7 spot based off of “Imma Boss” and “Tupac Back” and one mixtape? This shit is ass backwards..if anything he should of been #10 and bumped the other three up another spot…and dont even get me started on J. Cole…Platinum single(Nobod’sy perfect will be there soon),Grammy nomination, Gold album/#1 album after everybody said he was going to flop and most important Jay-z didnt hold his hand through the whole process and he gets left off? SMFH x 100
WOW PEOPLE HATE FOR NO REASON WHEN WHAT THEY SAID WAS ACTUAL FACTS MEEK IS ACTUALLY THAT BIG RITE NOW CHECK YOUTUBE EVERY VIDEO HE DROPS GET A MILL AND ALOT OF LIKES AND ROSS VERSE ON IMA BOSS WAS HOT BUT MEEK 3RD VERSE OUT DID ROSS AND LOOK ON YOUTUBE WHEN MEEK WAS AT THE STASH BASH WIT LIKE 60,000 PEOPLE THERE AND HE GOT WAY MORE APPLAUSE AND WAY MORE LOVE THAN RICK ROSS WALE DOESNT EVEN DO THAT
BUT ALOT OF U DUDES HATIN ON HERE HATE ON EVERY POST OF THE HOTTEST MC SMH GOT DAMN KENDRICK LAMAR STANS
No one agrees with the list. But honestly no matter how they make the list someones not gonna like it. I like the discussions cus its healthy for hiphop but u guys are getting too butt hurt over this list.
lol haha all these haters on here hatin on a list that doesnt mean anything its just a opinion so why get worked up over a list??? and i agree wit this list 90% but i would replace big sean wit j cole and meek is really that hot rite now im surprised hes not higher but its insane that he did this wit no album and hes a street rapper
R.I.P
Damn you guys take dick riding to a whole new level. You guys bitch about j cole not being on here on every single post.if you guys dont agree with this list tell us who your top ten are. Because I’m pretty sure j cole and the throne can’t take all 10 spots
At this point they should change the name from 10 Hottest MC’s to “10 MC’s that People who work at MTV Really like”
Yeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhh meeekkkk millllll
i actually like the list so far wale,big sean, wiz and meek are all rappers that rap about syltuff they actually done or do like they are real and its sad that fakes like wayne,ross,nicki, and drake will top this list smh
Meek is cool he only really had one song that caught fire I don’t know if he can put a album together. I think he should be on the list but 1 song shouldn’t get the #7 spot. Damn Cole missing from this list is crazy. The fuck boys at MTV always put good rappers low on the list but to snub Cole completly is saying fuck you nigga were pissed you finally put your album out.
smh shame that lists like this exist leavin kendrick n j cole off? nah go listen to overly dedicated and section80 shits on other rappers period
I think wale should be in front of meek but not given the fact he did have a good year don’t really like big sean or wiz but I guess on the impact they did they made the list Meek will always get u hype and he’s one of those rappers from philly that put he’s city on his back he reminds of Memphis bleek hype on every track I can listen to him all the time but we all know the mixtapes well be always good hope the album that drop this summer well be just as good as the mixtapes he’s drops— side bar I hope Fabolous get on there but I know he’s not u know how MTV do smfh
THA MUTHAFUCKAZ AT MTV ARE A BUNCH OF FUCKIN RETARDED MONKEYS!! #7?!? GTFOH, AINT NOBODY GOT THA STREETZ ON FIRE LIKE MEEK…OMFG WHO IN THE FUCK ARE THEY GONNA PUT AS THE REMAINDERS ON THE LIST? AND WTF DUZ MTV KNOW ABOUT EMCEEING
This list is really dumb meek mill is cool but he ain’t even put out an album and only had 2 singles and they weren’t even all that I’m not hating just my opinion j Cole should of been in that spot FUCK MTV
Meek had Philly on lock for the longest and he definitely took a big step into the nationwide spotlight last year. He had some anthems but the fact that he didn’t put out an album makes me question his position above other MC’s on the list. J. Cole and Mac Miller (where are they smh) had albums that debuted at No. 1. Big Sean’s Finally Famous did numbers as did Wiz’s ‘Rolling Papers’ (which had a No. 1 single). I’m curious as to how MTV defines “Heat”…
I want to hear EVERYONE’s top 10 on here. Everyone complaining but you aint the ones on camera taking heat. run them top 10’s and some stats.
MMG RUNNIN THIS RAP SHIT 3 ARTISTE FROM ONE LABEL IN THE TOP TEN
ROOOOOOOOZZZZAAAAYYYY!!!!!!
YMCMB HAS IT TO BUT THEY GARBAGE THO
Meek is dope but a the #7 spot off of “Imma Boss” and “Tupac Back” and one mixtape? This is ass backwards…if anything he should have got the #10 spot and bumped the other 3 up a slot…and don’t get me started on J. Cole…220 k first week sales(more than wiz,sean, and wale…Gold/#1 album, platinum single, plus “cant get enough” will be Gold and “Nobody’s Perfect” is def gonna go platinum and a Grammy Nomination…and most important he did it without Jay holding his hand through the process
@Really Doe?
i’m from Florida and i think Meek dope….but after i didn’t see Cole,Kdot or Krit on the list i could give 2 fucks about it.
so im guessing jeezy aint make the list, fuck outta here, take big sean and wiz off, add fab and jeezy
@BELLY JEEZY GONNA MAKE THE LIST
RICK ROSS
THE THRONE
DRAKE
WAYNE
NIKI
JEEZY
Real spit, I mess with Meek Mill. But, how is he hotter than Wale, Big Sean, Wiz, or even Cole? He hasn’t released and album yet, and while his mixtape was good, it wasn’t a classic. The only dude that deserved to be on a list on the strength of a mixtape was Drake. I mean Wiz and Cole was up for Grammy’s? I would like to see the criteria they’re using to determine who falls where. I understand that this is the “hottest mc’s” list, not the “best lyricist” list, but still… This list is getting worse and worse. This might be the worst one yet!
i have never herd a full song from any of these dudes so far, probly never will.
1. The Throne
2. Rick Ross
3. Drake
4. J. Cole
5. Meek Mill
6. Asap Rocky
7. Kendrick Lamar
8. Wiz Khalifa
9. Big Sean
10. Wale
Nicki is buzzing for all the reasons so she gets no play, Lil Wayne’s lyrics are too corny at this point to have the word MC next to his name. Just my opinion
yea told y’all nigga we nigerians feeling meek mills mane i told u i knew it this nigga is a problem gba
Freddie Gibbs > Meek Mill
LOL they really gonna play my nigga Cole? wow….
i got this feeling eminem wont be on this list
Thats stupid as fuck that The Throne counts as on spot. Unless there writing there verses together, then its dumb as fuck. If J. Cole and Nas made a album together they wouldn’t count them as one. This was the first year that they made the list that they actully had talented rappers to choose from but they wanna fuck it up just like everything else MTV is a part of.

what song did any of them dude have that was hotter in the streets that Meek? Ass is not hotter. Workout? That doesn’t incite people to get on the dance floor. Lotus Flower Bomb? Are cats banging that in the whip? c’mon. Those guys are legit,stats based picks, but the intangibles as far as heat? you have to give that to Meek.
@ 1for1
I Fuck wit dat list 10 Meek
Hold on… Didn’t the bitch say J Cole had a push by Jay-Z in the first video…. BUTTTT every song Meek did that was hot had a Rick Ross verse on it!!! He released a compilation album w/ nothing but Ross verses on them…. Didn’t even drop a solo!
This list is crazy for putting Meek, a talented dude who hasn’t proven that he can stand on his own feet yet over a Grammy-nominated rapper with plaqes and his own sound!
COME. THE. FUCK. ON.
i thought the list was hottest MC, not trendiest feature………………….
2 singles, mtv’s own award, shitty mixtape, and a gimmick for a label!
and yet Cole doesn’t make the list, nor A$AP Rocky!
jeezy , j cole, jay z, kanye drake, wayne should be top 5 they albums did the nbest this year
i wouldn’t have a problem with this list, if everything followed suit… meaning: for one artist they talk about numbers, tour dates, album sales — then u have one like meek where all they talk about is his street buzz, his label, his potential, and his sound in contrast with the radio rappers (nothin’ about production with exception of singles w/prolly a top 5 rapper (officer ricky) on this list). AND to use this whole notion of “at this concert he was bigger than this person” who the fuck cares, that isn’t an objective argument that is subjective one!
@kingBENNY download: hotspot shield. works fine for me in France 😉
fuck no. what does MTV know about rap?? the fuckouta here. dude shouldnt be on this list. (with wiz.)
@Really Doe? Im stay in NOLA and I fuck with Meek Mill. Do I feel as though he the best rapper out? No, but he is doing his thing right now
This is a stupid list, no credibility
Kanye should be number one in my opinion. not the throne. He was on the throne album. MBDTF won plenty of grammys even beating out watch the throne. People are still fiending for the yeezys to come out. hes the big sean’s boss. niggas in paris was just ridiculous (even if it got played out)
its gotta be kanye no doubt. but no cole? damn shame. I’m a k. dot fan too people but he’s not really “hot” right now. he’s more simmering. Hes got a solid fan base so far. He still needs that one single or album to push him over the edge.
Big up The Throne!!

Fuck MTV’s doo doo ass list , ppoint blank if you had a hit last year you made the list fuck skills fuck sales as long as you had a club banger you made the list. There list is so predictable, WE all know who’s left-JAY/Ye-Wayne,Ross, Drake, Nicki, 2 Chainz.
Meek should of been saved for next year’s list
ha! never knew mtv did comedy shows.
NO DISRESPECT TO ANYONE ON THE LIST, BUT UNTIL J. COLE IS ON IT, I JUST DONT CARE
Of course Jeezy’s gonna be on here. TM103 was the 4th best selling album of 2011 plus “I Do” is the biggest record out right now and don’t forget Real Is Back which had great downloads
asap rocky is hotter than meek… sorry i love meek but he in no way deserves to make this list. cole sold 250,000 but meek hotter than cole. wtf. mill has yet to release a real project his mixtapes is just goin offf other ppls beats. his live performaces r not up to the standard of a j cole wiz or big sean. MTV DOSENT KNOW SHIT. i expect better from sway the rest of these clowns can suck my dick.
Meek > Wayne’s stupid skateboarding ass, Drake’s simpin
Ross, Ye and Jay then Meek last year
“If you didn
LMAO if meek ain’t real rap then no one is. I mean come on, do you suckers do any research before you say hes fake and not a real MC… like meek ain’t the biggest youngin in the game, do you fools make up your facts or are you just that dumb? I mean come on, whats obvious is obvious, get off you azz and go outside and maybe you can get whats really hot on the streets.
this list is dumb just like rapradars hot mc list.
Fuck everybody dissing Wayne
Everybody else who’s on this list except jay z and Kanye didn’t change the game at all!
Weezy change the mixtape game right when dedication & drought came out. he’s the reason there is a datpiff. I’ll put songs( gossip, demolition pt 1&2, the mobb, BM jr, dr carter, I told y’all) fucking many more over these cats songs anyday! I smoke kush and play weezy cuz he’s high on that loud and y’all must be smoking shwag getcha weight up
I’m lost… I guess I don’t listen to the radio enough
THIS POST HAS BEEN BOUGHT TO YOU BY THE MTV/RAPRADAR/MMG CONGLOMERATE!!!!
……HA!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Mtv is for teenager !!!
Let them put sweet 16 and jersey shore
No J.cole , really are u listenin to hip hop
If dey wayne dats another bullshit dey will do
One more thing wale should hav been before meek
MMG 3 rapper on the list dey still winning
Meek Mill Is Dope But How He Got Ahead Of Big Sean Wale, And Wiz let alone J.cole is beyond me!
the day jeezy drops on the list gon be allota hate keep it coming
J. Cole had a bigger year than all them so far on the list. #1 overall album, outsold all of them, grammy nom, #1 song on rhythmic radio, two singles on the Billboard overall charts, his own us and european tour, mixtape single In The Morning got good radio play, he was on four hot features that all charted, and he had songs in two tv commercials. Seriously, compared to all that WTF did Meek do?
should b top 5
no 2 Chainz is pretty tragic
I’m from the DMV so I aint gonna syce Wale up to much but the list as of right now should clearly have Big Sean off it.
10.) Meek Mill
9.) Wale
8.) J Cole
7.) Wiz
I’m not really into Wiz, but dude is like 23 years and has doubled if not trippled the amount of money earned this year by the other rappers selected so far and probably some to come. Ross deserves Top 5.
NEW MMG MEMBER! DUNNY BRAZZ FT MASSPIKE MILES
Good list but unfortunately asap/kendrick wont get love. Sadly cole, & miller wont either. I figure cole didnt make it because of lack of personality. My list would go something like:
The Throne
Ross
Wayne
Drake
Jeezy
Nicki
Meek
Wale
Sean
Wiz
I feel nicki and jeezy could be switched for cole/miller. 2 #1 albums. Miller did it indie as well, huge endeavor there. Cole huge album also, but they lack that personality/cultural impact imo. Therefore not making the cut.
I feel wale,wiz, sean can go in any order. What do ya thinks fairest donn/mr101?
Also if u had to do a top 20 who would make it??
Cole
Miller
TiP
KLamar
V$VP
Tyler
Currensy
2Chainz vs Tyga??
Krit or Yelawouf???
Wacka or Lupe???
