MTV has announced their picks for 2010 Hottest MCs In The Game. The list comprised the usual suspects including Eminem and Kanye West as well as a few surprises. Check out the full lineup below:
1. Eminem
2. Jay-Z
3. Kanye West
4. Drake
5. Rick Ross
6. Nicki Minaj
7. Lil Wayne
8. Waka Flocka
9. B.O.B.
10. Ludacris {Source}
Nicki Minaj? Whacka Flopa Fail? THATS IT! MUSIC IS OFFICIALLY DEAD! 🙁
Clearly these lists are based on yearly success because it can be argued if Eminem is the best or not. Also, why just WHY is Wacka Flocka on the damn list. I believe all the other people belong where they are though.
Congrats to Nicki for being the first female on the list too.
Any list that contains Waka Flocka cannot be taken seriously.
This is so waaack! I’m tired of Eminem getting the #1 spot on every list. Why is this unanimous? I’m not saying that he’s a bad rapper, I do believe he’s no longer in his prime. I don’t understand how DMX and Nelly isn’t listed and Drake and Minaj is. Also, why are these 2 ranking higher than Ludacris and Lil Wayne(who’ve repeatedly found success multiple times).

Before anyone starts to trip about it being rappers included that only have music out in ‘2010, look at the title. It’s a bit confusing because they’re not stating that it’s a list of the best rapper in 2010, it debateably appears to be a list of the best rappers at this time. So there’s some confusion there.
YAY @ B.o.B., but the list is a flop. B.o.B. just came out. This list is only for popularity & sales (whether albums or singles). Lupe should’ve been on & been #1.
who the hell is waka flocka????????????
hahaha, Wocka Flocka? anyway, he is doin it “BIG” right now, people r loving him, he’s just my style….BUT this list is cute/
Ummm…the list says the Hottest Rappers of 2010 (Not of all time) so I think they got the list correct. I won’t argue with it no matter how many people say this person flopped or this person is not #1 or whatever.
Eminem, the only artist to almost sell 3 million copies of an album THIS year…he gets a pass and he’s had two #1’s from that album.
Jay-Z…came back hard with this album
Rick Ross and Waka have held down their respective ends of the hood…
the list is great just take out wack floca
The F**k is wacka flocka
OK HOLD UP LIL WAYNE SHOULD @ LEAST B N THE TOP 5 HE SHOULD NOT B #7 THATS MESSED UP I LIKE BETS LIST BETTER!!!! AND NIKKI M. SHOULD B N THE TOP 5 WTF IS WRONG WITH MTV!!!!!!!!????!!!!!!!!?????
THE ONLY GOOF SONG BY WAKA FLAKA IS NO HANDS!!! AND THATS MANELY CAUSE OF ROSCO DASH AND WALIE!!!!
LOL NO… NICKI & WAKA? PFFT… I’M NOW STUCK ON KANYE’S NEW STUFF AFTER “RUNAWAY” THOUGH, KANYE SHOULD BE AHEAD OF JAY.
WOCKA FLOCKA WHAT??? DUDE NEEDS A REHAB NOT A SPOT ON TOP MC’S LIST!!
Nas, is the number one rapper in the world, the rest are just a bunch of devil worshipers.
Waka Flocka? I heard a couple of this guys songs – I wouldn’t call it rap…
Also Eminem is slightly overrated – not saying that he isn’t a good rapper though, he definitely is but people hype him up too much sometimes.
Jay-Z is #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People should really understand the criteria for these lists. BET and MTV have certain criteria for their list which determines who’s included. No matter what the title is, the criteria is what determines the list. It’s clear that this list is based off of the last YEAR, containing those rappers who have been successful, while garnering immense POPULARITY. It’s obvious that they didn’t incoporate lyricism as a main component of the criteria because clearly WHACKa Flocka lacks in that department and the fact that he AND Nicki were on there (particularly her WITHOUT an album) further proves popularity was a huge factor. Do I agree with the list: NO! But can I see how they came to their conclusions: Yes. It was even one year they considered putting Soulja Boy on the list.
@ROYALKEV…
LOL@ a Janet Jackson fan talking about someone else being passed their prime. Who has outsold Eminem this year? Yeah, thought so. Not DMX, not Nelly…and for damn sure not Michael’s sister.

Lupe , Kanye,Jay, Wayne, Em those are My tops … in order. Any list with Waka is just wrong…
Sorry Forgot my Boy *Nas*
okay i understand niki bc of the young money album and shes been killin it on some tracks but stil l no album which means shes not ahead of ludacris. and HAHAHAHA get the fxck outta here mtv waka? seriously i can think of at least 15 different mcs who deserve a spot on this list more than him, lupe, wiz, curren$sy, chip, cudi, id even put lil diggy simmons on there before him. cmon i remember when mtv actually cared about music
TAYLOR GANG OR GET STUCK IN AN ELEVATOR PLAYING WAKA FLOCKA
I AGREE EMINEM IS THE HOTTEST MC THIS YEAR CUZ JAY-Z BLUEPRINT3 ALBUM CAME OUT LAST YEAR #JUSTSAYING
“Nicki Minaj? Whacka Flopa Fail? THATS IT! MUSIC IS OFFICIALLY DEAD! :(”
B.O.B.??? Really?…LOL
i wish they would stop making those ridiculous list jeesh… but seriously they need to take nicki, drake, rick ross, and waka flaka off , because they havent had the longevitiy that the other artist have had. i think Eminem does deserve number one, he came out of no where and treated the rap game with a diverse and a meaningful album that reached across pop and hip hop charts. i give credit where it is due, and Eminem did great.
Hmmm switch Jay Z and Ye’ and then take Waka Flocka’s wack ass off of the list, much better =)
B******* List but Not as S***** as BET’s List for best Rappers since 2000, They had the nerve to list EM & Lilwayne as Top 2 & they are nothing but Pure HYPE & Overrated if you ask me… Nothing Special about Lil Wayne & Em is only successful cause hes White & his Voice is not worth listening too. JayZ should have been #1 & Kanye somewhere close by…
MTV’s list is much better though cause atleast they only did its pretty accurate for 2010, Scratching my head at how they would even know who the Hell Rick Ross & Wocka are…
WACKA FLOCKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT??????????????????????????????????????????????????????
And I think that Jay-Z should have been #3 and Kanye at #2. Nicki shouldn’t have been on the list and neither should have Drake. Andre 3000 should have been on there, Rick Ross shouldn’t have. I like B.O.B. but he shouldn’t have been on the list. Lil Wayne should have been in Ludacris’ place. MTV and BET were both right that Eminem is #1 though.
who’s Waka Flocka suddenly that man/woman is in every list…
Andre 3000’s one verse on the Deuces Remix>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> (the “>” sign goes on infinitely) Wacka Flocka
And I think that Lupe should have been on the list too. I don’t go off of sales, I go off of talent. I think that Lupe actually should take the #2 spot, then Andre 3000, then Kanye, then Jay-Z. After that, I don’t know, but I do know that Nicki and Wacka shouldn’t be on the list. Drake should be lower on the list though. I can’t stand his voice.
I don’t give a f*** what anyone says. Eminem was the greatest last decade and this decade. He is the best rapper ever. Period.
Wow, I hear the HYPOCRITES flap their gums all the time about ppl being held accountable for their actions…….Ummm……ENTERS DRUG ADDICT WIFE BEATER EMINEM! The greatest MC huh? LOL …hey………yeah………why not?
Honestly who takes this crap seriously when we all know that large sums of money exchanges hands to allow certain ppl to be declared “GREAT” in the music industry? I can’t stand Eminem but he has had a wildly successful 2010.
As for Nicki and all the applause she is receiving…LOL…..PLEASE! What success because she’s attached to Lil Wayne and ppl have given her opportunities because of that association? Oh ….okay……then I guess she successful?????? I like Nicki but LIL KIM, EVE, MISSY ELLIOTT and a few others should have been on this list along time ago if the current rules applied back in the day. Its seems as if the BET and MTV criteria changes every year to accommodate the ppl they want to add to their list!
UMMM……….WHATEVER MTV!
WACK-HA FLOP-HA WHO ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

WERK NICKI!!!!!!!
@ JDE97, Wow you Madonna loving fans sure hate “Janet weeks” don’t you! Is your sister still excited about seeing For colored Girls? Janet’s “past her prime” = most artist best day! … and it’s still superior to Madonna’s best 10minutes(Janet > Vogue)! Eminem is lazy these days and his music sucks! Even Eminem said it himself that he feels as if he forgot how to rap and had to learn all over again after his drug addiction. If you ask me he still never remembered. He’s all hype and he didn’t quite get back the substance he use to deliver in his rhymes from his early days. He was the wackest on Forever, Lil Wayne, Drake and ofcourse Kanye murdered him. All he’s doing lately is singing (like Nelly from the ’02 era). He’s just late. He was good at one time and now he’s sort of lame.
LOL @ ROYALQUEER bringing up Madonna to me. That was random. Where have you EVER heard me champion Madonna? You retarded c****, you. Where you born stupid, or is it just in the air at your house?
Janet only wishes she was still pulling the #’s Eminem (who BTW has sold more albums than her overall) has these past few years. Who in the hell are you to talk about “wack” and “sucks” when that b**** Janet can’t sing or act and hasn’t had a hit song or sold an album in a f****** DECADE. LMAO! Radio would sooner play a Stacy Q song than they would a new Janet joint. That ho’s career died when she pole danced at the Superbowl. Get over it. In the meantime RECOVERY is the #1 selling album of 2010 and features 2 #1 singles. Janet wishes….
Listen….Janet Jackson is a talentless, plastic surgery addicted, washed up, played out, has-been who can’t sell a record, get a hit and wouldn’t be anywhere w/o Michael’s last name. Every time you see a picture of her you should make a wish because what you’re seeing is a FALLING STAR! Flop album after flop album. And since you’re a fan of this outdated relic from 20 yrs. ago, that pretty much makes you a loser. 🙂 The world has moved on w/o you (and Janet). Haha.
We need to set the record STRAIGHT, you guys need to remember that this list is strictly but not limited to sales and how successful the MC has been DURING the year 2010!!! Not 2009 not 2008 but 2010. So I could see that the list did justice, except for Wacka Flocka ( that one Im surprised lol). It sucks that Lil Wayne is number 7 and I don’t completely agree with that but other then that they got number 1 right. Nobody can say Eminem isn’t killing it this YEAR 2010
THE GAME!!!
I am curious what will do with that??
