News MTV Explains Why Eminem Wasn't On The Hottest MC's List

Eminem's 'Hottest' Absence Explained
By Shaheem Reid

MTV News' Hottest MCs in the Game list was rolled out over the past week, and from the jump, one topic has garnered much of the attention.

First, we would like to thank all of you who logged on and got involved. You voted, left thousands of comments, and engaged in the conversation with tremendous passion. We respect your opinions and appreciate your continued participation.

The Hottest MCs in the Game list is created entirely by the Hip-Hop Brain Trust, a group of ten passionate, informed, opinionated people who rank, discuss and debate artists' heat in a precise moment. With this list, it's all about the now.

And right now, the most discussed topic is Eminem's absence from the Top 10. While he didn't qualify in previous years due to a lack of musical activity, he released Relapse, his first full album of new material in five years, in May. And Slim Shady's fans have told us that the omission of the legendary MC from the 2009 list was a major misstep.

So how was the list determined?

The 2009 Hottest MCs in the Game list is based on an MC's achievements of the moment, not an entire career. The criteria are based on a combination of mic skills, buzz, commercial success (sales and airplay), business ventures, Web presence, and impact.

Each member of the Brain Trust compiles his or her list based on those criteria. The fan list is factored as an eleventh. Each ranked artist is then awarded a number (number ten is worth one point, and so on). Those eleven lists and their respective values are combined to form a final list, which is then discussed and debated at the Roundtable.

Eminem's ranking was one of the most discussed topics at the Roundtable. His hotly anticipated return to hip-hop after a long absence drove first week sales of over 600,000 - the highest first-week of the year so far. He granted a handful of select interviews here and abroad, and was part of a massive moment with Sacha Baron Cohen at the MTV Movie Awards.

But then Em retreated to the lab, where he spent the summer crafting Relapse 2. From June to September, Em all-but took himself out of the public eye, while other MCs generated week-to-week heat with mixtapes, guest appearances, performances and Web activity.

He returned in September with comedic moments and a win at the VMAs, then dropped a verse on Drake's "Forever" (also featuring Kanye West and Lil Wayne). The song's move into heavy rotation came subsequent to our roundtable vote. In between, he kept his profile low.

Eminem is one of the best ever on the mic. His track record is undeniable. The Hottest list deals with right now, though. If the Brain Trust had compiled the Hottest list back in May, there's no doubt Eminem would have made the Top 10.

In the end, The Hottest MCs in the Game is representative of the opinion of the members of the Brain Trust. You have every right to disagree. That's what the Hottest MCs is all about: engaging in a thought-provoking, informed, fervent dialogue about hip-hop, the music and culture we all love.

Rofl, why is Jeezy and Ross on there then?

No hate on them 2, but they're aren't exactly 'hot' in the streets right now are they?

24/23 came out around 2 months ago, and he had one verse on Jiggas blueprint 3...so that warrants a place in the top 10?

Ross been silent since the beef.

IMO, Kid Cudi, and Wale deserve to be on that list. And of course, Eminem

MTV are a bunch of bitches.

YoUnG CaLi · 10-08-2009, 01:39 PM

Yea wtv muthafuka.......lmao at talking bout he left the public eye after the release of his album.....I haven't heard shit outta rick ross after his album was released...guccie man doesn't even have a album out.....wtf are you suppose 2 do after your album is released???? You spend months promoting it then when its released and has tremendous success you should be able to get out the public eye.....eminem buzz leading up to the release of relapse was hugeee....after his first single,, the industry was buzzin with people mad and people being thankful that em even mentioned they're name......fuck MTV they did that shit so we can keep talking about the list...

The let the public vote, em won that and still didn make the list???

Lma @ "hip hop trust brain" they had a white girl and buttaman on that group....that's 2 major L's to their credibility

LooseCannon23 · 10-08-2009, 03:26 PM

why didnt they have people from hip hop we kno makin this list
not just all the black people that work at mtv

........

Mazzz1987 · 10-08-2009, 03:27 PM

This is a sad excuse for even poorly justifying their bad decision. MTV you're about as real as your reality shows. Smh

3percent · 10-08-2009, 03:37 PM

mtv is bullshit. they dont know shyt. fuckers.

robert henry · 10-08-2009, 03:51 PM

They know they messed up and now they messing up even more, this is no excuse.

BornIntoThis · 10-08-2009, 04:15 PM

Why is he there than? He been abscent too.

Like I said, MTV List is based on 5 peoples opinion around table who are scared not to put Jeezy or Emotional KAngay on the list.

Da MD Kid · 10-08-2009, 06:02 PM

TheLostBoy · 10-08-2009, 07:45 PM

"Hip-Hop Brain Trust" LMAO! that just made me laugh

but yeah still wondering how Jeezy made it, he didnt do nothing this year but feat in one track in Jay-Z Blueprint 3 thats all i know oh and dropped one mixtape

MTV just full of shit, where was Kid Cudi? Asher Roth? Wale? Budden? them dudes had way more buzz than Jeezy and Gucci

and Eminem not being on it, its just an L for MTV

Cashvillian · 10-08-2009, 08:03 PM

I look at it like this Jay-Z deserved the 1 spot, Eminem had a pretty good year and deserved the 2 spot. Then I would say Kanye & Drake would fight for the 3 spot and Weezy behind them. The rest is a toss up in ways, because there are many artist that could arguably make the list.

For example I believe Gucci Mane deserves to atleast make the list at 10, because from my perspective his street buzz has been insane. It is also necessary to talk about the new school kids. I've become a huge fan of J. Cole after listening to his mixtapes recently, even go so far to say he is becoming my favorite of the new generation, but as bad as it hurts me to say it he, Wale, Cudi, etc. havent made the big enough jump yet. Im kind of surprised Cudi didnt make it though.

marmial · 10-08-2009, 09:02 PM

so they basically tryin to tell us, that the mtv hottest mc's OF 2009 just count the present momentum and not the year as a whole?

chickenwings · 10-08-2009, 10:27 PM

lol @ mtv havin to explain why em was missing from the top 10 rappers list.

Stay Fly · 10-08-2009, 10:39 PM

like chickenwings said: that the fact they had to explain it, it means they did something wrong.

The criteria are based on a combination of mic skills, buzz, commercial success (sales and airplay), business ventures, Web presence, and impact.

jeezy is on there, ross is on there, but em is not ? what is ross and jeezy doing better then em ? buzz ? no, mc skills? come on...., commercial sucess(sales and airplay) ? come on......business ventures? maybe ross and jeezy did better, dont know.....web presence? come on, impact ? come on.

so with that said, em deserved the number 2 spot.....also cudi should be there.....budden too....crooked I too....crooked is a beast, he deserved a spot.....

Thug N Harmony · 10-08-2009, 11:42 PM

1st Off 50 Shouldent B On Durr. He Released 1 Medicore Single Whick Wuz Azz!!!
& Whurr Tha FucKBone Thugs??? Dey Been Doin' Showz Witt New Material Out (Which Iz Hot Because All 5 Are BacK) Bizzy On Tour Witt Mr.Capone (I Think Datz Who) & Havin' A Brand Nu Album Out In November!!!

Em was number 1 in 20 countries but he couldn't make it to the list?

First week sales in the US was 600,000 In the Uk he sold 400,000 the first week. Since he was number one in 20 countries he sould way more then 1 million the first week worlwide more then Lil Wayne thats a fact.
So again why couldn't he make it to their list?
