MTV’s yearly “Hottest MCs In The Game” list always engenders great controversy. However, Big Sean is taking his eighth-place ranking in stride.
“I feel it’s cool. Next year we even gonna be higher; next year we goin’ to the top,” said the G.O.O.D. Music emcee in a recent interview with the LA Leakers. “Straight to the top. It’s tight to be recognized.”
“I really thought J. Cole should’ve been on there,” continued Sean. “I don’t know if they’re gonna put him on there…just for the good year he had, and he’s a good lyricist.”
“It’s funny how it all works out,” added Sean, who recalled performing with his peer J. Cole. “I remember doing a show with Cole, and there was like thirty people in the crowd, and I went on before him. It was just like, so long ago.”
“It’s come a long way for all of us.”
Big Sean also went on to predict who he thinks will be number one on the list. “I could see [Rick] Ross be number one, I could see [Kanye] be number one. I could see…Jay, yeah, I could see that.”

The MTV top 5 will look something like this:
5. Eminem
4. Kanye West
3. Jay-Z
2. Drake
1. Rick Ross
fail….Jay is already #6
Maybe replace Em with Wayne for the top 5.
why is the list only big name rappers signed to big labels with the money and marketing behind them
4 Real
you just answered your own question!
they paying mtv for those spots
joke
before people come on here asking why such and such rapper isnt on here, its called the “Hottest MC’s” meaning whos getting the most buzz and doing the most. This does NOT mean they are the best. For instance right now Ross is hotter than Rakim. Damn sure doesnt mean hes better
How do people know Cole won’t be on the list if the list isn’t finished yet?
they released the 25 rappers that they choosin the list from and cole not on it.
I’m hearing that number 1 is Kanye. I’m not sure who two 3 and 4 are but I think you have to give it to Jay and Eminem and Common. That album was hot plus he put a nice beating at Drake. Ross on the other hand is so over rated.
EVERYONE KNOWS ROSS WILL DESERVINGLY BE NUMBER ONE, SO QUIT ALL THE SPECULATION, HATERS QUIT HATING AND JUST LIVE WITH IT.
MMMMMMMMMAYBACH MUSIC!
rick ross should get this he is doin the most right now he has built a strog label and has a hudge buzz goin for his album!
thin sean the gay male hairdresser
I do not agree with this list, simply because J.cole is not even in it. His first week sales were 200k plus, more then a lot of these rappers that are on the list. How the fuck is J.cole not on this, this is silly by far.

Why would ross be number 1 i dont get it wtf has he done so could got to niggas that still do average ass numbers someone please tell me wtf has rick ross so big this year where is a buzz at wale 150 first week sales mmg 60k first week sales wht the hell is so good about tht
gay fuck
Don’t see why poeple care. The list is going to be a failure anyway.
thats like 3 rappers on the list so far wondering why COLE is not on there
MTV stays hating! COLE WON. FUCK MTV
The Radio Host sounds GAY!
That nigga’ ah’ “Ho-Mo”
MTV is not credible so who cares, i cantbelive ninjas are checking for MTV anyways
mtv doesnt even play music anymore so why does anybody care? they put meek and wale instead of cole who has a gold album and 2 hit singles and the best album one of the best albums of last year…..smh they put hov at number 6..smh
Thats a good point, all they show is Jersey Shore and that Teen Mom bs
What 2 hits did j.cole have?? Not trying to be funny, i really font know. Honestly, there arent 10 good rappers out. And any list Drake is on instantly loses creditability
this just proves how long that G.O.O.D Music money travels… Big Sean is pure booty trash.
If i was J.Cole, I’d be pissed off at this lol
