Thoughts On Eminem Not Making MTV’s Top 10 MC’s List?(Leave Your Top 10)

em

Eminem failed to make MTV’s top 10 hottest MC’s list after going platinum with, “The Relapse(released May 19th).” While I didn’t like any of his singles the man still sold 608k records in his first week, that alone get him a spot in the Top 10. Other MC’s missing from the list are T.I. and Jadakiss. Would T.I. be on the list if it wasn’t for him going to jail and would you put Raekwon over Jadakiss? Leave your list below.

I think white people will be more mad about this that the OJ trial.

1. Jay-Z
2. Lil Wayne
3. Drake
4. Kanye West
5. Rick Ross
6. Gucci Mane
7. Young Jeezy
8. Fabolous
9. 50 Cent
10. Raekwon

    maybe because he dont have any material out NOW. if not that hes being looked over

  2. aidonia Says:

    Who made MTV the authority on hiphop music anyway. B4 Michael Jackson they never even played black music. Eminem lyrically and statistically is better than even Jay Z with more grammys, albums sold, and any other category you can think of. Taking nothing away from Jay but just making the point that Eminem is one of the greatest and should have definitily been on this list with the highest selling rap album of the year. No one gives any credibility to MTV when it comes to hiphop!!!! Point blank

  3. Leonidas1 Says:

    FUCK MTV!!!! EM SHOULD OF MADE THE LIST!! HE HAD AN ALBUM COME OUT AND VERY ANTICIPATED SEQUEL TO RELAPSE BOUT TO DROP HIS BUZZ IS STILL GOING STRONG AND MIGHT I ADD STILL HAS A SOLID FAN BASE!!! EM YES FIFTY HELL NO!!!

  4. Princess Says:

    1. Jay-Z – no issue, hip hop legend
    2. Lil Wayne – hes OK. his delivery is just on point
    3. Drake – I DONT KNOW WHAT THE FUCK TO THINK ON THIS ONE. FOOLS JUST LOVE HIM
    4. Kanye West – lyrical content ALWAYS on point
    5. Rick Ross – delivery
    6. Gucci Mane – is like puttin a grown up soulja boy on the list
    7. Young Jeezy – “hood” lyrical content is on point.
    8. Fabolous – flow
    9. 50 Cent – better in his 03 days
    10. Raekwon – who?

  5. Ali_RealTalkNY Says:

  7. bkaysbanger Says:

    ok well in my opinion the only thing i agree with about the list is that jay-z belongs at number 1.but i dont agree with the order of the list and im assuming the list is based on the yr of 2009,so there for i would say emenim shouldve made the list and yes it is a wonder how t.i. isnt on that list but i guess thats the politics.off the top of my head i would say the list for 2009 hottest mc’s would be jay-z(1)drake(2)gucci(3)t.i.(4)kanye(5)50 cent(6)fabolous(7)wayne(8)emenim(9)jeezy or raekwon or maybe even slaughterhouse(10)

    i based my list on consistancy,features,lyrics and the person album as a whole.i think they gave wayne a pass at the number 2 spot based on last yr,im not sure why rick ross made it.like i said t.i. must didnt make it due to politics with mtv.

  13. Brianna Says:

    Honestly I dont think being a white person has anything to do with it. I am a black girl from fucking Texas and I have been listening to Eminem since the end of 2002! I grew up poor and had to go to high school with all the stuntin ass people who loved the stuntin ass rappers so i really could relate to him on not givin a fuck about people and what they wear or what they got(material things). Eminem may not be the “hottest” in the game right now(as far as radio play, club bangers, blog buzz, blah blah blah) but he definately deserved a spot in the top 5, at least…i am so pissed at MTV right now, im sorry but this shit doesnt make sense to me. Em don’t never get credit for shit, its like reverse racism…

  14. TRUTH HURT SOMETIMES Says:

    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

  15. DSG LABEL Says:

    Please stop with the lil wayne and drake. Just because you record and release a million songs, it don’t make you hot.

    Gotta take Wayne, Drake and 50 off the list. Period!

    4.Em (Went plat. and had one of the best verses i’ve heard on forever)

    8.50 (manages to stay relevant while putting out garbage)

  18. Sullyda1 Says:

  34. Ayi Says:

    LOL@Raekwon and Gucci even being on this

  35. Lil' Nello Says:

    I think Jay @ #1 is accurate but after looking @ most of the rest of the list I would take & replace more then half the list
    My list
    1. Jay dropped on an independent for 1st time & still sold pretty well. Started Roc Nation. Proved @ his age he could still make hot music with 1 of the best albums of the year. Yea it wasn’t CLASSIC but it was still hot & has many possible singles on it including arguably the hottest track of the year in Empire State of Mind.
    2. Em Yea his album didn’t live up to the hype but it was still pretty good for the most part. Plus the appearances he made throughout the year on high profile things such as the DJ Hero concert with him & Jay! Inducting Run-DMC into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
    3. Kiss This album proved that Kiss is 1 of the best in the game! Plus he brought dope singles & videos like Letter To Big, By My Side & Can’t Stop Me. He also made 1 of the biggest moves ever by aligning w/ Jay & the ROC! He also killed every guest from My Conglomerate, Hottest In The Hood to New York Minute. Not to mention putting out a CLASSIC mixtape w/ Green Lantern & also being behind 2 of the biggest reunions of the year by having The L.O.X. reunite with Diddy & the Ruff Ryders reunion.
    4. Ye Yea his last album was more R&B but he did make a few frequent guest spots here & there rapping that got him on the list! When he raps he’s on point especially on tracks like Run This Town, Kinda Like A Big Deal & Knock You Down.
    5. Rae Arguably the best solo album of the year with the CLASSIC OB4CL2. Also released a solid mixtape & stays real active with his fans by making frequent connections with them through twitter, in-store signings & tours. Plus killed it with his guest verse on Cartel Gathering as well as other frequent guest spots throughout the year. Did it independently on his own label H20 well still maintaining his hard-core fan base!
    6. Fab Proved to fans he’s a mainstay heavyweight in not only NY but Hip-Hop with his album Loso’s Way. Plus he had a pretty solid mini-movie to accompany the album. Made a lot of guest spots that he really did his thing on wheter it be a Hip-Hop or R&B record from Hottest In The Hood, She Got Her Own to Addiction. Opened for Jay-Z on a few tour dates over the summer.
    7. Twista One of the hottest emcees there is that never gets his just due. Twista went independent & started his own label GMG where he houses up & coming future great Skooda Chose who’s also from Chicago. He released arguably his best work since Kamikaze with his new album Category F5 that’s a real solid album that got him working back with The Legendary Traxster for the 1st time in a while. Killed guest verses such as Midwest Choppers 2 & Loungin. Reunited to his roots by having tracks with fellow Chicago legends Johnny P, Do Or Die & Buk of Psychodrama that turned out real solid tracks.
    8. Budden Put out 3 solid efforts in Halfway House, Padded Room & Escape Route. Plus he did it on a never before heard of label Amalgam Digital yet they still all turned out great. Has one of the biggest presence on the internet plus is always connecting with his fans. His Joe Budden TV is pretty entertaining to plus he made his former GF Tahiry into a star with it!
    9. T.I. Has made a lot of noise throughout the year even with going to jail. I think he’s the most I have heard from an artist going into jail & even while in jail since Pac. Sorry to have to make that comparison but it’s true. He had a reality show on MTV where he helped kids get out of situations similar to what he faced growing up. He still has pretty hot tracks being released well he is in jail and not with just anybody but MJB like Remember Me. Not to mention he has his label being held down & he has a VH1 Behind The Music special about to be released.
    10. Nas Hasn’t made to many frequent appearances since last year’s album but I think like the year they included Andre 3K on the list after dropping 1 verse. This is a same case scenario since Nas killed it on one of the best tracks of the year in Kiss’ What If & Usual Suspects off Ross’ album. Not to mention the tracks he previewed on the Rock The Bells tour coming from his upcoming collaboration album with Damian Marley are real solid to.

    I would have included Ghost on the list to but he hasn’t been active enough except for within the past few weeks it seems.

    PS- I think if the list would have been formulated better like in past years where they had more debate among themselves and switched people in and out of the list that would have made it more interesting rather then going about it this way!

  36. SO ICY BOI Says:

    People everybody know Eminem should be on the list but this is a PUBLICITY STUNT!!! just to get attention if they would of did the list like everybody want it to be base on lyrics and etc then the list would of been BORING the list is the way it is for a reason Eminem not being on the list? come on now i dnt even fuk wit Em bt if its base on this year he have to bt MTV aint doing the list for the fan its about MONEY and not having eminem on the list gonna have yall blogging about it for weeks and weeks GOSSIP makes money just like when Kanye West did that staged out burst at the VMA’s …DNT TAKE THIS SERIOUS ITS JUST A LIST!!!! WOW LMAO

  37. jukebox Says:

    implemented differently lol

  38. jukebox Says:

    form factor

  39. daffysci Says:

    you guys are dumb, i see ppl saying he sdhould be on the list jsut because of first week sales?

    They tell you what the criteria is for there decisions, lyrics, flow, sales, fan votes, and the intangibles etc. Em might score pretty well on some of those but what hes rly lacking is the BUZZ, everyone else on the list got crazy buzz about them, em only has buzz when he puts out a stupid single making fun of ppl and when his albums about to drop.

  40. 2cents Says:

    lmao @ Ali… WOW! You know what it is though… GO P&G!

    realistically Em could be left off his material is bout as weak as curtis’ so… but arguing about this means it matters… which it doesn’t…lol

    So I’m a jus watch!!! 1

  41. bandana Says:

    WTF IS DRAKE DOING IN THE LIST??? PLEASE TELL ME!!! HE’S NOT EVEN AN MC JUST ANOTHER RnB SINGER WITH AUTOTUNE!!! SUOLJA BOY DESERVED TO BE IN THE LIST

  42. KB Says:

    I think the only person who should be replaced is 50 to be honest! Eminem & T.I. should have made the list but yall voted in 2 guys who didnt really do much! Raekwon only had buzz becuz he released on the same day as Jay-Z & 50 did nothing but talk shit about artists & drop one mixtape! Meanwhile T.I. had THE BEST SINGLES RUN of his career he had 4 singles in the Top 10 & his album did very well & Eminem had a big first but his buzz did die down pretty quickly tho!

    T.I. should’ve replaced 50 in my opinion but I guess its because he’s injail that he didnt make the list. Either T.I. or Eminem should’ve replaced 50!

    p.s. – next year is mines tho, lol (u’ve been warned)

  52. UKBOY Says:

    I think this list was fair. Em is not of relevance to our music. I am glad Rick Ross got credit for his hard work and finally gucci mane getting the recognition he deserves. Well done MTV I have been waiting for a real fair list and now its here I am happy. Anyone who does not agree should get on the mic.

  53. TYBO2020 Says:

    MAN THAT LIST IS BULLSHUCKS BUT IT REFLECTS WHAT MOST ARE BUYING AND SUPPORTING!! ME PERSONALLY ALL..EXCEPT JAYZ AND RAE AINT SHIT AND NEVER WAS SHIT , SO SUPPORT WHAT YOU LIKE! DONT TALK ABOUT IT BE ABOUT IT! I AINT WASTING NO MORE OF MY TIME WITH A LIST..BUT KNOW 8 OF THEM SUCKAS IS WACK TO ME

  54. Q Says:

    Mtv is died when it stopped showing music and started showing those gay shows, eminem is one of the best rapper and has been on top of the rap game since the slim shady lp, mtv don’t know anything about music anymore

  55. name Says:

    drake is new, he can’t be on this list. but this list doesn’t matter because its like commercial radiostations, controlled by corporate payola to generate revenue.

  56. NEGRO PLEA$E!!! Says:

    Man will you guys get a grip? It’s nothing offical. It’s just a stupid list based on popularity. Not lyrical talent. Everybody calm down. Man.

    I had a feeling Gucci was gonna be on the list but what suprizes me is
    1. Eminem not being on the list
    2. Gucci being placing high than Jeezy
    3. 50 being on the list (and im a fan)

    But who cares; it’s MTV.

  57. NEGRO PLEA$E!!! Says:

    I sure hope that isn’t anyone’s top 10 D.O.A. of all time. If so, let me just say, you have horrible taste in music.

  58. Drod33 Says:

    yo wtf em didnt make the list? Now thats bullshit i dnt give a fuck yoo em should be top 3 i dnt give a fuck yo…..Eminem went platnium!!!!!!!! He is way better than gay ass gucci mane!!!!! WTF kind of list is this i mean # 1 jayz yeah give it to him yooo…But eminem should of been # 2 or # 3!!!!!! Well all im sayin is that this is bull shit leavin the white boy out agian watch i hope on RELAPSE 2 he comes out wit a diss track for this top 10 mc bullshit!!!!!

    1. Jay-Z – no issue, hip hop legend
    2. Lil Wayne – hes OK. his delivery is just on point
    3. Drake – I DONT KNOW WHAT THE FUCK TO THINK ON THIS ONE. FOOLS JUST LOVE HIM
    4. Kanye West – lyrical content ALWAYS on point
    5. Rick Ross – delivery
    6. Gucci Mane – is like puttin a grown up soulja boy on the list
    7. Young Jeezy – “hood” lyrical content is on point.
    8. Fabolous – flow
    9. 50 Cent – better in his 03 days
    10. Raekwon – who?
    ================

    The fact that you wrote who? for Raekwon gives you 0 credibility.

    and on top of that, it’s the hottest list, so lyrical ability doesn’t really apply here. Drake is hot right now (nothing to do with being good), that’s why he made the list.

  61. Hi Hater! Says:

    Em is definitely #1 on my list, and Jay second

    and @ RTNY : “I think white people will be more mad about this that the OJ trial”

    it aint black/white thing nigga…we off that!

  62. Piff LighTy Da DON! Says:

    @ Block!
    His Album was Trash is u stupid!…shit is a good album it may not be what you can relate to but its still a good quality Album! better then half the albums that Came out only him and Jay-Z & reakwon made albums thats worth any type of Play! and thats speaking from a nigga from the streets! PLus he sold More then any rapper This year even tho he took 4-5 years off from the game and had a Single that the public didn’t really get Hyped to!…To overcome that in the times we in How isn’t he the hottest MC!..why? because he doesn’t hop on every R&B Single or Made a Throw it in the Bag!…Fuck outta Here with this Bullshit Fugazi List He should be somewhere up there even if its 5th or whateva But personally i think he should be Top 2!..and he’s bout to release Relapse 2 this year that’s 2 fucking albums in a year!….Plus he will lyrically eat any MC on there!…only nigga giving him comp on that list is Jay-Z!..& maybe Fab!….but thats about it!……MTV SUCKS and if ya’ll agree with this Fuckery then ya”ll on some Bullshit!

  63. E. Taylor Says:

    Yo I thought they were going to brown Kanye for the Taylor Swift thing but doing that to Eminem is some wicked shit. They got fab, and 50 over there over Em, that’s not cool…MTV remember your own people God damn it…lol…

    and anybody that thinks that lyrics are rated on this (even though they say they are) they aren’t.

  65. DaKiD Says:

    For who Em is and Relapse was successful he could be on the list. BUT when look at ALL THE CRITERIA they used…”buzz, impact,sales, airplay, business ventures, Web presence”…etc.

    Em was MIA for a couple yrs. Came back dropped an album made a couple videos since then U aint hear from him. Only publicity he had was the Bruno thing on MTV Movie Awards. Aint hear about tours no nothing. So i can see how he aint make the list.

  66. IKnowRap Says:

    Cmon people i know im not the only one that sees why Eminem has all this clout…HE IS A CAUCASIAN BOY!!…if em was black he wud not be leading Jay in any categories what so eva..and if anybody wanna say 50 cent is beating Hov at sumtin…umm 50 Cent is equivalent to MC Hammer…so fail, his sales dont mean anything!…to go along with that he dropped and album and isnt even half way quoted this year among hot lines…i did think it was a solid album tho

  67. RealTalkCA Says:

    honestly….50 shouldnt be there….

  68. RealTalk425 Says:

    MTV has zero credibility, but for some reason this really bothers me. Jay Z should be number 1, I agree. But Eminem is not in the top ten? Gucci, 50, Fabo, Drake, Rick Ross a better MC than Eminem? This shit is stupid.

    Boycott MTV for the rest of the week. That’s how you get a corporation back, hit their dollars. Seriously.

  69. da1nonly Says:

    dont kno if anyone remembers but while back they did a list (when em was literally everywhere) and all them niggas aint want him on top sway said wat bout em and they were like naw but none them had a good reason till one nigga said we just racist(i kno he probably jokin) but just shows they got somethin against em that nigga deserves the top spot gay ass list

  70. dferg17 Says:

    1. Jay-Z – he’s dropped the best hip-hop album of the year and was a huge commercial success.
    2. Fabolous – he’s dropped the second best hip-hop album of the year and was a commercial success.
    3. Eminem – he’s dropped a great album and was a huge commercial success.
    4. Young Jeezy – he’s dropped a great album and was a commercial success.
    5. Rick Ross – he’s dropped a good album and was a commercial success.
    6. Jadakiss – he’s dropped a good album and stays relevant.
    7. Kanye West – he’s dropped a good (singing) album and has had some good features.
    8. Lil Wayne – he’s on everyone’s songs still and has an album coming out.
    9. Drake – he’s got a nice mixtape and has an album coming out.
    10. 50 Cent – he’s dropped some nice mixtapes and has an album coming out.

  71. tas11 Says:

    The fact that Eminem is not on this list makes this list uncredible

  72. Peyton...... Alicia Keys "The Element of Freedom" out in stores December 1!!!!! Says:

    I really dont like the dude(Em), but he should have been #2. I really enjoyed his earlier work(have not heard any new material).

    Anyways, as long as Jay is #1, thats all I care about :)

  73. Peyton...... Alicia Keys "The Element of Freedom" out in stores December 1!!!!! Says:

    And Hell Yasss, Jay is a fucking Icon, hell Living Legend!!!! Words cant explain how great that guy is!!!!

  74. Can IT! Says:

    This is officially the end of an era for me. I see now we are IN A COMPLETLY DIFFERENT GENERATIO OF RAP. sad, sad day. It seems the art form (hip hop) has gone backwards over the past couple of years and only continues to slip further in the hole

    Hehe that is true, seems like she just made 20 and being a part of the “MTV Reality TV” generation she has no clue bout RAE, mayn “ICE CREAM” and joints like those from the album are still crazy listening today ya know what I`m saying.

    I cant fuck with top 4# that is just spot on, but it blows my mind “MR Officer” is even on that list…WTF ?

    Gucci Mane I could not care less about, same goes for Jeezy those cats just annoys me.

    50 Cent … dunno bout him, he might be revelant, but I just never been a FAN.

    FAB on the list, I like that and kinda impressive but not as much as RAE being on the list it is like a mistake or something, but a good one and I have to say a really good one. GO WU.

    This is my list.

    1. Jay-Z – no issue, hip hop legend

    FUCK MTV this list is the dumbest list ever, even vibes had a better one………………..
    1. Jay-Z
    2. Lil Wayne
    3. Drake
    4. Kanye West (you fo real????)
    5. Rick Ross (saaaaaaaaayyyyyyy whaaaaaatttt????)
    6. Gucci Mane
    7. Young Jeezy
    8. Fabolous
    9. 50 Cent
    10. Raekwon

    anyway my list would be
    1. EMINEM (barely promotes his album, no tours, no shows still sells 3 mills WW!!Fuck jay =) )
    2. Jay-Z
    3. Drake (been working hard, stayed consistent)
    4. Fabolous (kills every remix and the album was dope)
    5. JADAKISS (Same as fab)
    6. 50 Cent (War angel and forever king are DOPE, ok u right is played ALOT in NY, baby by me starts getting a buzz, stays in the media all the time)
    7. Gucci Mane (he’s everywhere but 75% of what he puts out is garbage… STR8 garbage)
    8. Wayne (Def not a top 5 this year….)
    9. JUELZ SANTANA (no love for juelz??? Same as Fab and Kiss)
    10. LLOYD BANKS (4 dope tapes this year, V5 coming, he deserve a spot more then Jeezy does…)
    So again FUCK MTV!!!!

    lol did i saw someone put lil boosie and soulja boi in their top ten….? haha xD

    anyway my No.1 is royce da 5′9

    if you put Em in that list you gotta put 5′9

    if you forgot Em, you forgot royce!

  84. Geesworld Says:

    @ Iknowrap. Feeling everything you said.

    Top ten list is a killa of hip hop. Get on your grind boys, make good music, make history.

    Jigga made 10 albums in eight years, retired and came back in the game and made three more albums. That is the blueprint right there. Tupac was felt because after all the beef antics, he made good music. Make music and the rest will falls in place.

  85. ignite mindz Says:

    kanye shouldve been at the top because of the taylor swift controversy, but that was last week so hes not. Hov is spending millions on media exposure right now so he makes number one.

  86. Home Of Philly Says:

    I dont have a problem with the order of the top three but after that Im not happy.

    1. Jay-z
    2. Lil Wayne
    3. Drake
    4. EMINEM
    5. Rick Ross
    6. Fabolous
    7. Kanye West
    8. Young Jeezy
    9. Gucci Mane
    10. 50 Cent

    basically the people who made the list, except for Rae should have made it. I just don’t how the fuck he made this list in the first place. His album fucking flopped, his style is stone-aged, and there were so many ohter viable choices out there.

    MOST NOTABLY LEFT OFF:
    * Joe Buddens
    * Cam’ron
    * Nas
    * Jim Jones
    * T Pain (has everyone talking and he’s on alot of ppl shit)… Well he’s not a rapper so I guess he doesn’t count lol.

    * The Game (as much as realtalkny.net puts game shit online, im surprise Nigel didn’t bring his name into the conversation lol)

    * Flo Rida (Killin the ringtone market lmao)

    * Soulja Boy (As much as I hated Crank that, u gotta admit Turn MySwag on was a summertime anthem!!!)

    * and Kid Cudi, Cory Gunz, Wale, and J.Cole just bcuz they’re a breathe of fresh air for the new school.

  90. atlantabyrdgang Says:

    eminem is a novelty act,the college graduates i know always debated how his lyrical content was so irrelevant to black life,but white trash should be very proud to have an advocate for their struggle,he made maybe 2 songs that i liked but overall he was revered for being able to stand on a black stage and not get laughed or pushed off,but since white men control hip hop and exploit the poor and disenfranchised to make their millions a white boy in the debate can never hurt,lol dr.dre the white mans bitch,jay z’s number is based on him being 11 albums in and still relevant,ny is trying to find anyone who can still carry the torch cause bp3 sucks ass my top 10 for 09

    em should be on the list just because of his album but not in the top 5 because you just dont hear any new material played consistently from him (aside from the new forever record which isn’t his). think about singles from em’s album drake’s MIXTAPE singles get played more on the radio……..just something to think over who on can put out a mixtape and have videos and billboard topping songs from it…jay,wayne,gucci (he’s semi doing that now),drake,kid cudi(day and night) and maybe kanye thats real whether you like the rapper or not u can’t deny the attention they get and that pretty much attests to how hot they are

  101. Yoshe Says:

    M & M SHOULD NOT be on the list… and I am personally please to see that he IS NOT ….

  102. County Of Kings Says:

    niggas stop bitchin damn
    em is not hot right now, even with a album, nobody talkin bout him, nobody listening to him. no videos are in rotation, no songs are gettin spins on local radios out here in nyc. so that means your not HOT RIGHT NOW. damn wats so hard to understand about that

    kanye made a rnb album, but when he spits its hot, and its gettin radio spins and video rotation. and he did alot of bp3 which holds some weight as far as ppl discussing you.

    rick ross could be a c.o. wat does that have to do wit him being on the radio and on tv, actually that makes ross a lil bit tougher, the whole world knows he was a c.o., the whole world knows he lied about it, the whole world saw his baby moms get fucked, and the other with his enemy gettin clowned. and he still managed to have a #1 record, get radio spins and video spins. imagine if none of that happened he would be even hotter right?

    gucci is a bumb, but he still very relevant. they should rename the list most relevant mc’s so u bitches can stop bitching talkin bout wat em did in 2002 like anybody gives a fuck, wat have u done for me lately

    how is kanye on the list when he hasent dropped a rap album since 07 and paper trail was better than relapse and bp3 and tha carter III and so far gone

  106. IKnowRap Says:

    lol @ this post…it has a mix of ppl who actually know what their talking about ppl who dont have a clue what their talkin bout and stans and haters…Its been repeated enough, this list is who is hot, not who is the best…that mean put your bias and dislikes behind and just take the list no need to pop a blood vessel….

    face it Em is not hot, just cuz he put out an album n sold the most doesnt mean anything….CAM, JADA, BUSTA…all put out albums do they deserve to be on the list!?! No…em is in that same boat, he just sold a lot becuz the majority of his fanbase is white…there is no denying that OR the fact all four of those artists had really poor albums

  107. IKnowRap Says:

    to keep it real jeezy being on the list is more questionable than eminem not being on there, and im a big Jeezy fan…same goes for 50 cent and Rae to…i think Cudi had a nice buzz around the country even tho i dont like him and TI didnt go away till May but i guess we stopped hearing from him around march r sumtin so I can understand them leavin him off i guess…jeezy makin my president is black carried a long way tho from August 08 till like Feb 09 but shud that land him at number 7 above fab i think not.

  134. Jordan Says:

    lol EVERY BODY BOYCOTT MTV…THIS CANNOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

  135. Jmik Says:

    Ok people, the list is supposed to be based on buzz, sales, airplay, flow, creativity, and number of hits on sites like YouTube and google, and the intangible “it” factor such as being able to start a convo by just mentioninng their name. And all over the last 12 months. With that said, this list is bunk. Most artists should not have been as high on the list ( with the exception of jay and drake). And most shouldve been gone completely. Weezy got weak and too commercial. It’s just not just quanity, it’s quality too. And he didn’t drop an album. No way he deserved #2! And Ross, gucci, jeezy, and 50 should have all been lower or off the list completely to make room for guys like cudi (creative as hell, tons of radio and web play, and sold over 100k in first week). T.I. (double platinum, great album, all over radio, tv, and the news), and easily the most ridiulous name to not make top 3 let alone the list at all is em. I don’t care what your personal views are of eminem but he undoubted was one of the most talked about rappers of the year, period. Highest selling and fastest platinum selling albums of the year. Many people didn’t get the concept but it was just that, a concept album. And his ability to tell a story is brilliant. Sorry drake but em is the one to paint a vivid picture no HD. 2 top 10 tracks (crack a bottle went #1) and 4 top 40 tracks, huge controversy around beef with Mariah and diss track (the warning), 2 MTV nods, 1 MTV award, and the forever… Well he pretty much rapes everyone on that track. His flow is so raw it’s insane. And on top of that Mtv gave the pubic a chance to vote and with 40% of all votes outta 40+ mc’s went to em. And vibe had poll for fans and they voted em hottest Alive and of all time. So stop fighting based on opinions and stick to the facts next time.

  136. Jmik Says:

    @BM1311
    if you wanna base this years list on past achievements and sales, then em would be 1 no question. The Carter 3 sold a mil in a week and 3 mil total.. That’s great. The Marshall mathers lp sold over 1.7 opening week and over 10 total in the us alone. And if that’s not enough, he followed that up with the eminem show which sold 1.3 mil in it’s SECOND week and has sold over 9 mil to date in the us alone.

    __________________________________________________________________

    U dont know anything about me so why are you talking to me like that ?
    I dont like Eminem, never did and never will so honestly it is very pleasing he has been left out of the list. You say so what if MR Officer been a “cop” well if you like fake story telling and think that is hot then you choose that but dont tell me to think “so What” because that is too fake for me. About puttin common and and Gucci in the same breath as Jay Z , now where did you read that ??? I did not write such thing, I said get MR Officer and Gucci out of the list and it will be good.
    About Kid Cudi, yo have even listened to “the man on the moon” ?

    OK I GET IT THIS LIST CONSTITUTE THE RAPPERS OF RIGHT NOW. SO WE COME TO THE QUESTION OF WHAT MAKES A RAPPER A TOP MC AND TO DEFINE IT IN SIMPLE TERMS IT’S A DUDE THAT CHECKS THE MICROPHONE. NO I DON’T MEAN A SOUND CHECKER I’M TALKING BOUT A RAPPER WHO WHENEVER HE/SHE TOUCHES THE MIC AND SPIT THERE RHYMES THE CROWD/AUDIENCE BOPS THERE HEAD KNOWING THAT RAPPER BELONGS THERE. I HAVEN’T HEARD EMINEM NEW ALBUM BUT I KNOW THAT IS SOLD AND I’M SURE HE GOT HEAVY SPINS AND HIS TARGETED CITIES LET ALONE WHEN ONE OF THE HOTTEST SONGS WAS PUT OUT HE WAS CALLED TO FOREFRONT NOT RAEKWON OR GUCCI MAN. EM SHOULD BE ON THIS LIST PERIOD. AND IF GUCCI GETS CREDITED FOR MAKING 100′S OF SONGS AND MULTIPLE REMIXES & GUEST SPOTS THEN FABOLOUS SHOULD BE AHEAD, FAB HAS DONE THIS FOR YEARS MOST SONGS ARE ALWAYS HOT AND ON BILLBOARD CHARTS. HIS FLOW, DELIVERY & PUNCHLINES ARE UNMATCHED BY THE BOTTOM 6 (ROSS ON DOWN) IF FAB WAS CALLED TO GET ON THE “FOREVER” TRACK, THE HIP HOP WORLD KNOW HE WILL DELIVER, COMPARE TO ROSS ON DOWN. I DON’T WANT TO POST A LIST CAUSE MY OPINION WILL CAUSE CONTROVERSY ITSELF BUT MTV IS STARTING TO DROP THE BALL ON COVERING HIP-HOP I KNOW WU-TANG IS A WELL RESPECTED LEGENDARY GROUP BUT RAEKWON SHOULD NOT BE ON THE LIST I’M FROM NY BUT LIVE IN PHILLY AND I HAVE YET TO HEAR A RAEKWON SINGLE LET ALONE SEE A VIDEO OR HEARD A RINGTONE I SAW THE COMMERCIAL PROMOTING HIS ALBUM RELEASE BUT HE HAS NEVER BEEN THE HOTTEST WU-TANG MEMBER LET ALONE HAD ANY SUBSTANTIAL HITS OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS. I DON’T THINK HE CAN SELL OUT A CONCERT BY HIMSELF AND HE MOST LIKELY WON’T GO PLATINUM LET ALONE GOLD SO HE SHOULD HAVE NOT BEEN ON THIS LIST. MTV MY PEAD FOR YOU IS TO DO BETTER I KNOW YOU TOOK POLLS BUT JUST LIKE THE BUSH ELECTIONS WE BEEN BAMBOOZLED AND TRUE HIP HOP FANS VOTE DIDN’T COUNT

  143. tearz92 Says:

    Eminem shud b on the list 4 the following significant reason:

    MIC SKILLS – Did they not hear “UNDERGROUND” from ”Relapse,’ which was one of his most lyrical and hungry songs in years. Let’s not forget his diss towards Mariah Carey ‘THE WARNING’ which is arguably his hardest diss in years, even if it was to some of the softest peops in the game (Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon)

    BUZZ – Anytime there is a single word mentioning Eminem as a feature or a producer, people come storming in requesting and commenting. Even with false rumors like the whole ‘Eminem Gets Fat’ thing, the stories and headlines start buzzing immedietly.

    COMMERCIAL SUCCESS (SALES AND AIRPLAY) – Eminem had the highest selling first week this year along with going platinum in 2 weeks. Relapse was #1 in sales in over 14 countries (Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Ireland, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Norway, Polish, Taiwan, UK, US) not to mention the first single from Relapse ‘Crack a Bottle’ was #1 on the charts in both US and Canada.

    BUSINESS VENTURES – Anyone ever heard of Shade 45 (highest rated hip hop channel on satelite radio) or Shady Records? (which happens to include 50 CENT, one of their hottest mcs)

    WEB PRESENCE – NO other Rap artist has as many fan and other sites dedicated to them. It doesn’t matter what music site you go to you will see Eminem somewhere.

    IMPACT – Last years hottest MC was Lil Wayne. Eminem has such impact on Lil Wayne that he numerous times throughout the year begged for a Collaboration with Slim Shady. Eventually the two got together on ‘Forever’ (featuring Drake and Kanye West as well). So from last years hottest mc, to one of the newest mc’s in the game (Asher Roth) artists have expressed HUGE thanks to Eminem for his impact and contributions to Hip Hop even giving him the hope of becoming a rapper one day.

    ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE MOMENT NOT AN ENTIRE CAREER – what about winning MTV’s own ‘Best Hip Hop Video’ award?

    & you know what surprises me that Fabo was low on the list when this year he came back hard with his new album Loso’s Way ppl needa stop sleepin on him

  148. perry Says:

    all i have to say is eminem not being on the top 10 is unacceptable. shit i love gucci, for all the haters he has, hes probably my favorite rapper. and i couldnt care less what people think of him, but he doesnt deserve to be top 10 more then eminem does. and why is rick ross higher then 50 cent? thats not right. jeezy shouldnt be in the top 10.. mtv claims it was partially based on current releases. has jeezy even released anything this year? if he has. i havent seen it. and fab? yeah he dropped a decent album, but better then eminem? i think not. mtv lost all credibility with this list.

  149. perry Says:

    oh and another thing i left out, did anyone see where eminem was taking shots at mtv earlier this year? when his album first dropped? i cant remember if it was a cribs episode or what it was, but he took a couple lil jabs at mtv.. i wonder if thats why they didnt put him on….

  150. theblackfrankwhite Says:

    Just like Jigga said without Slim Shady on this list it has no credibility, this bullshit “hip-hop braintrust” are a group of morons who listen to the radio and surf 16 yr old girl’s myspace pages to see who they list as their favorite rapper and then call themselves experts. They have such an agenda to serve when they put this list out, and their explanation about why Eminem wasnt on it was the most retarded shit ive ever read. Who’s keeping the streets hot with the most mixtapes? Get the fuck outta here .. where’s Hov’s mixtapes then.

  153. Alex Says:

    Eaither way, ask yourself 1 Damn question. Who of all rappers, has sold the most records??? Survey says……………..EMINEM! With 75 million sold totat. Of all combined records. Jay Z at 50 Million. Facts are facts. Google it. Both are more than all 2 pacs records combined. Props 2 both Eminem and Jay. As for Gucci on the list at all is ridiculous.

  157. tj Says:

    em should of made the list period. No question about it….his cd was the HIGHEST selling rap cd of the year .thats number one… Rick ross? gucci mane? could you tell me one song thats gunna be a classic from them? forever just proves that he still is hood so you cant even argue that… and now he has a highly anticipated cd coming out which i cant wait forr….lyrically em wrecks it and i dont know how he didnt make the list

  158. JD Says:

    uh…mtv…that list is funny…haha…anyways, my personal list goes (as of right now. and this is MY opinion):

    1. kanye (always has substance)
    2. kid cudi (the dude is sumthin special and is REAL…there’s RAW emotion in his music)
    3. drake (a lot of skill, but a lot of hype as well..maybe too much, “a blackberry yo!?!?” lol)
    4. lil wayne (has lyrics, and a entertaining flow)
    5. jay-z (always solid, but i feel to much is being credited to his long career)
    6. eminem (can rhyme circles around ANYBODY)
    7. t.i. (the guy makes hits)
    6. lupe fiasco (pure substance)
    7. the game (the guy can seriously do work on a track if you listen to it)
    8. outkast (you can’t put andre 3000 and big boi separately hahaha)
    9. common (he’s unique and doesnt sound like most of today’s rappers. he’s a real mc)
    10. last but not least 50 cent….uh sike!….ill put e-40 in here. gotta rep the bay! yay area! (but forealz tho, he’s sooo underrated. he has a unique flow but some real lyrical talent)
