[caddy1010]

K-RINO is the coldest ever!!!.......24 C.D.s and they still coming 3 this year 3 last etc. and bad thing about is he been doin it for 20 years.......BUT YOU DONT KNOW HIM......WHY? The industry is giving you BULLSHIT. I promise if you do know, I wont get nothing but positive responses and if you dont know......well, he is called "Your rappers favorite rapper" among many other titles like the G.O.A.T.

[yeti433]

MTV KNOW WHAT HE DO IT'S THE GOOD LIST

[paulwils0n]

Tip has aged well, he'd look the same as he did back in the day if he threw on some pyjamas and that other mad stuff he rocked during the golden era.

[character4thought]

Tribe called quest, the reason WHY hip hop was so lethal during the 90s, WE NEED THEM NOW DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!

[DmaN10s]

Why is big l not on the top 10 list

[jhammaster]

@DmaN10s because hes dead this is curent

[MrIlleism]

@DmaN10s Amen brother! Amen! Fuck this list, MTV = Mainstream TV!

[yeti433]

@MrIlleism 2pac, biggie , nas, jay z why fuck this list mtv know what he talking about homie

[JiMMyJaM08061991]

its hot mc list. not hot as in how good u are but like how much of a buzz u have. if u have 3 street smash singles and become a trending topic on twitter u are hot. if u sell 4 mil albums then ur steaming hot. doesnt mean u actually the best though.

[Schismzz]

Best era in hip hop? 90's hands down! 2k was not the end of the world, but it was the end of real hip hop and the take over of this bottle popping, swag, party bullshit. There was some mcs in the 2k that was fire don't get me wrong, but nothing like the 90's. Nowadays people base skills on how much money you make or how much your album sells. if that's the case, then i guess Transformers is one of the bet movies ever made because it make a shit load of money at the box office.

[greensegram]

@Schismzz not erryone basis their opinion of a emcee on all that materialistic bullshit atleast i know i dont n i hope that people think about lyrics wordplay delivery storytelling punchlines meta4's etc b4 they judge me ya feel me

[Schismzz]

@greensegram Hope your right cause 90 percent of mainstream sucks. Nowadays at least.

[duelatdawn]

90's vs 2000's? Like a dragon against a housefly. So funny to see these kids thinkin theyre the hottest shit since the big bang. I'll put Ins. Deck against any of em, done deal.

[RichyJA]

@duelatdawn hold up I grew up in both eras the 2000s got some ill MCsthey just adapting to this swag materialistic industry T.I. got it,Drake got it,Maino brought back that telling a story on album vibe,Kanye does his thang,J cole bought to bring back that fever for you dudes,Vado,Nipsey Hussle

[Ayplus]

When Q-Tip speaks, everybody should listen.

[larry89]

yeah these judges are a joke, they dono shit about hip hop

[Nevasayneva91787]

Tip is sexy!!!! I know I'm not the only one that believes this!!!!!!!!!

[gotVTECyo]

q-tip is in my top 10 list

[PhilliesBlaze1]

Yes Im tierd of the same stuff ...lyrics is what its all about when it comes to rap not lyrics alone not sure y people think that ,its ur image first ok u might not like that but Im a consumer first and if I dont like what Im seeing than i dont really want to hear it than the lyrics the beat its everything as a hole that builds and make an MC noing how to market and promote yo shit that makes an MC evovling into something better constantly so that was Q-tip OPINION and this is mine.I'm on point

[dirtyplaya]

the list was bullshit we all kno it was more like mainstream popularity list

[themayorofchicago]

qtip,nas,red man,krs-1,c brown, black thought, 3000,cl smooth,grand puba and ghost are the best.

[LinJapanese]

fuck these lists!

[Urbanearmusic]

My man tip is the truth.

[LexyAAA]

What did Q mean when he said its a bout how well you ryhme not your buisness? What did he mean?

[OpinionatedJerk]

@LexyAAA

he's saying that just because you're a good business man and are selling tons of albums, it doesn't mean you're a good MC.

[jowersomega]

@LexyAAA he means that the top MC's should be based on rhyme skills not how much money u made doing business or at least that the skills should factor in more prominently in the debate..swagger,record sales etc. are of least importance unless your a marketing or record executive.

[itsoverforuman]

Redman Method kill 'em all

[ImaazeDa3th]

Its MC's, Lil gayne is nothin close to MC, and not even rapper.

He aint shit!

BIG L, BIG PUN, KOOL G RAP, LORD FINESSE, BDK, CANIBUS, SLICK RICK, KRS ONE, BLACK STAR, ATCQ, EMINEM (OLD ONE) etc..

[HipHopHermit3000]

Thank GOD Q-tip has the balls to speak the truth. Too many respectable/old school rappers try to come up with politically correct answers.

[MsPizzaface1]

DOOM is the best mc right now

[djnomi4mix]

how da fuck wayne was top mc...he swag jack more shh than jayzz ....insane they give credit to niggaz who swag others shh..and put niggaz down da list who write there own shh struggle...these ppl are joke lol who vote...let the ppl decide..

[LexyAAA]

I love Q-tip i can tell he's getting offended because of all this garbage ass music now days. I love him New york people keep it real.

[skaterava]

The MTV lists are always HORSESHIT. Drake, Wayne, and all those other faggots shouldn't even be in the top 100. Sales have nothing to do with it.

[hypie1989]

BIG L WAS THE BEST MC EVER AND ITS A FACT

[BoyBlaze2002]

[Mego34]

Maybe he snatched his girl's shit before he walked out to the 50 Set

[LexyAAA]

[unirvrsl]

MTV or in fact any of the networks, including BET need to be policed on acknowledging the REAL top MC list's...they are just selling records, which pisses me off

[trudon]

mtv's list is doo doo

[Djperryville]

[WMTE]

[GorillaEsquire]

[blackmoon3306]

[THEM0STSHADY]

[dogdesire]

[benderman42]

[nemesis700]

[OLKID2000]

Greatest of all time. 1. B.I.G 2. Tupac 3. Nas 4. Jay Z 5. Ice Cube 6. KRS One 7. Rakim 8. DMX (need to stop crack) 9. Snoop Dogg 10. LL Cool J + The Fugees

[SPOT187]

Greatest of all time. 1. 2pac 2.B.I.G 3. Jay Z 4.Nas 5.Eminem 6. Ice Cube 7.Rakim 8. Snoop Dogg 9.Big L (would have been higher died too soon) 10. Scarface

[SPOT187]

In the greatest of All time ... Nas can possibly over take Jay It depends what you look at. And Jay Z Could possibly take BIG if you take longevity of amount of work put out in to account so could Nas... But 2pac is definetly # 1.

[SPOT187]

Here is my top MCs of today. 1. Jay Z 2. Nas 3. Eminem 4. 50 cent 5. The Game 6. Kanye West 7. Lil Wayne 8. Andre 3000 (could be higher if he put out more music) 9. T.I 10.* Common or DMX (X needs to stay out of trouble ,he would of been in the top 4)

[carnage45]

MTV should change the list to the most popular MC. They don't base that shit on talent.

[drock285]

Hottest dose not mean the best. It's who is hot now. If your favorite rapper has not had a cd out in the last few years he may be better than a Ross or Wayne but he aint hot! Period. The best rappers are sometimes lazy. Drake and Lil wayne are not top 50 rappers ever but they are doing all the work in hip hop right now..

[MegaManZeroV1]

Q-Tip speakin' that realness.

[THEM0STSHADY]

what kind of stupid mother fucker makes up a rap name like Q-TIP! lmao.

and MTV is bullshit. They dont deserve to be called Music Television. since when is "the hills' and "room raiders" music? lmao

[maccavel187]

Dude, you know you're talking about a Hip Hop legend, right? The Q stands for Queens, and he was called Q-Tip as a kid cos he was skinny and had a big head

[THEM0STSHADY]

how can he be a hip hop legend with only 2 albums?

[nemesis700]

fuck u..go kill ya self..chump..you dont hiphop...

[nemesis700]

know hiphop

[maccavel187]

Q-Tip's made 7 albums, moron. Never heard of A Tribe Called Quest?

[somebigchorizo]

truth

[jilla4567]

i fuckin hate this mtv shit. they tell us to vote when our votes the even fuckin matter. jus like fuckin politics

[OLKID2000]

The very two best rapper in this world are Nas and Jay Z. All the rest are not at their level !!!

[nemesis700]

that statement...you yourself and every mtv list are/is a joke

[nemesis700]

im so happy tip said what he said..'alot of them dont know how to mc'..word nigga..props for not co signin that bullshit list..lol for a second i thought he was gon dat shit too lol....every mtv vh1 and bet list is bullshit

[justfarr1030]

Exactly and so are all the lists by Vibe, Source, XXL and whatever other Jew-wish owned corporation out there perpetrating to be Hiphop.

[flipsipp199076]

q-tip is the right person to say that shit, not lil bitch, or young shit, or all of those money making artists, or artists that only trying to make money and dont give a fuck about hip-hop or what they sayn on the track!!

[chubroc]

I don't take anything MTV does serious anymore anyway

[LPOSLA]

Been thinking this for the longest but they always disregard it like it's water under the bridge...Finally somebody like Q-Tip has the balls to come out and say it! I was wondering how long it was gonna take...Only the new generation of MTV would pull some shit like this...

[Perfection7tv]

Real talk. When your putting Weezy, Jim Jones and stuff on a list its a bit of a joke. Lyrics wise there nothing worth talking about. Call the lsit something else. Call it best rap stars or something.

[youngpac13]

"na na na na...."jimmy

"haha yea young money huh..."lil wayne

[nakeist]

I agree 100%. To me it just seems like most of the rap artist now are not giving a shit about anything that a KRS1, Q-Tip, Nas, Jay-Z, Busta, n them say and I find that really disrespectful and ignorant, being that they've done it and just try to help these new artist understand. I swear I can't get with these new kats at all. I don't care how many albums they sell, most of em are corny as hell and have a nice beat but aint talkin bout shit.

[d15craxx]

Thats true...
