I still wanna know the criteria for the list. You obviously dont need more than 1 hit song. And you dont need an album to be out. What are they looking for?
May 20th, 2008 at 3:12 pm
i still don’t understand how luda wasn’t in the top 10.
May 20th, 2008 at 3:12 pm
Yeah, correct, I mean they got rappers on there that ain’t even active!

where the fuck is papoose because this list seems to be about who is popping right now for ya’ll that dont know so where is pap?
May 20th, 2008 at 5:14 pm
what they basing this list on, but actually the list makes a lil sense b-cuz theres a difference between hot and best or greatest. to be hot is really based on the more popular artist but as far as the best or greatest thats a whole other ball game, in that list lyrics, flow, poise, swagger, (and accomplishments i guess) really weigh in, not that who can make a hit records or sale the most, and u might need an album to back u up…maybe.
May 20th, 2008 at 5:20 pm
cosign #6, #8 n #15 – FUCK MTV
May 20th, 2008 at 5:27 pm
as far as the best in the game right now:
1.i gotta say lupe and not wayne b-cuz lupe shit actually has meaning to it…(superstar, hip-hop saved my life, dumb it down) compared to (lollipop)
2.wayne can take the second spot
3.i think andre is a monster with just two verses
4.kanye is next
5.jay is # five for american gangster
….bun, luda, game, fab, yall can sort them out but the top 5 is lyrically smashin the game

May 20th, 2008 at 6:49 pm
How culd they not put Fab and Joe Budden. Listen to the remixes Fab was on and listen to Mood Musik 3. Lil Wayne dont deserve a spot nor does jeezy. Lupe def shuld be higher up.

May 20th, 2008 at 11:43 pm
lol@Mtv ..The Only Person On That List That Was In The Right Spot In My Opinion Was Jay ,Lupe Should of Been In The Top Five, Kayne Shouldn’t of Been Number One, Andre 3000 Should Of Been In The Top Five. Styles,Fab,Luda,Bunb,Joe Budden/Game all Should of Made The List, And Wayne, Shouldn’t of Been Anywhere Near The Top, He Should of Been 9 or Ten. And Why The Fucc Did They Not Mention Nas? ..If Your Not Going to Mention Real Mc’s Then Change The Name to “Hotest Rappers” .That Would Make Much More Sense.
May 21st, 2008 at 3:03 am
So you mean to tell me that Nas doesn’t even crack the top 25. Get the f_ck outta here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PEACE
May 21st, 2008 at 8:09 am
someone please tell me how juelz santana not on that list…mtv sucks ass…if this is what the game has turned into i feel sorry for the upcomin emcee’s
May 21st, 2008 at 9:33 am
Why are people shocked that Jay & Kanye is higher than Wayne. I think Wayne is the hottest MC from the south, dont get it fucked up. But dont act like When it comes to ALBUMS that Lil Wayne is on their level. American Gangster and The Graduation shits on any album Lil Wayne has put out to date.
