    Rick Ross is the Hottest MC in the Game

    by  • February 23, 2012 • Fresh Juice, Thurs 7-9pm • 0 Comments

    The lists were tabulated and then debated on, but MTV’s latest listing of the Hottest MC’s in the Game ends with the crown going to the Bawse himself, Rick Ross. The Maybach Music kingpin emerged from a close and heated debate to claim the honor over Drake of Young Money. Both Ross & Drake dominated radio all year long, but Drake’s critique of an album based more on singing on “Take Care” rather than the more street emphasis of Rick Ross was enough to tilt Ross to the prize by a 6-4 vote! What are your thoughts on this year’s list? Do you agree with MTV and who do you think was the biggest snub? Let us know in a comment below and peep the artists named #3 through #10 here as you watch the final debate below!

    Kanye West Named #3 Hottest MC in the Game

    by  • February 22, 2012 • Fresh Juice, Thurs 7-9pm • 0 Comments

    Kanye West once mentioned that he may not be the best in anything, but he is always top 3 in everything. His latest top 3 is courtesty of MTV’s Braintrust naming him the #3 Hottest MC in the Game for this year’s list. Kanye started 2011 high off the buzz of “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” and dominated hip-hop and fashion circles especially on twitter as the year progressed following it with the “Watch the Throne” collaboration album with Jay-Z. Did Kanye deserve to be higher or did they place him at just the right spot? Let us know in a comment below and peep the artists named #4 through #10 here! We’ll post the final battle for #1 tomorrow!

    Nicki Minaj is the #4 Hottest MC in the Game

    Despite a grammy performance that made hip-hop nation cringe and a super pop record, Nicki Minaj was named the #4 Hottest MC in the Game by MTV’s Braintrust. To get there a very heated debate followed her naming as the #5 Hottest MC to leapfrog over the emcee that originally broke her into the game, Lil Wayne. The argument was that this year both Drake and Nicki Minaj helped Wayne be hot more than Wayne helped them. What’s your thoughts on Nicki Minaj? The ridicule and the hate seems to dominate the social networks, but we keep talking about her. Does that make her hot? Let us know in a comment below and peep the artists named #5 through #10 here! We’ll post #3 tomorrow!

    Lil Wayne is the #5 Hottest MC in the Game

    by  • February 20, 2012 • Fresh Juice, Thurs 7-9pm • 0 Comments

    Last night on a special night of hip-hop on MTV2 the MTV Brain Trust revealed their top 5 Hottest MC’s in the Game. Leading off is Lil Wayne who rebounded from another jail stint to hit the ground running hard. Tha Carter IV is on the verge of going two times platnium being the most sold album of 2011, but it underwhelmed in critical acclaim. In fact they argued that the Young Money head almost piggybacked on the stars he helped make in Drake and Nicki Minaj. One of them, Nicki Minaj, was voted to pass him as the original #5 to #4. Is Lil Wayne becoming too pop for hotness in the rap game or is he really in a mini slump? Let us know in a comment below and peep the artists named #6 through #10 here! We’ll post #4 tomorrow!

    Jay-Z Finds Himself #6 Hottest MC in the Game

    by  • February 17, 2012 • Fresh Juice, Thurs 7-9pm • 0 Comments

    With quite possibly the most controversial decision so far on MTV’s list Jay-Z was named the #6 Hottest MC in the Game. On pretty much an off year from one of the greatest of all time sans “Watch the Throne” the mogul focused mostly on his buisness ventures plus Kanye’s influence is more apparent on that album than Jay’s is. Did they place Jay in the correct spot? Let us know in a comment below and peep the artists named #7 through #10 here! The top 5 will be revealed this Sunday on MTV2 and then posted here on Juice Radio!

    Wiz Khalifa is the #9 Hottest MC in the Game

    by  • February 15, 2012 • Fresh Juice, Thurs 7-9pm • 0 Comments

    Wiz Khalifa was originally named the #8 Hottest MC in the Game, but after a resounding discussion that labeled him as more of a pop rapper than a true emcee he was knocked a rung in favor of Big Sean of G.O.O.D. Music. 2 Chainz even entered the conversation unexpectantly, but as of now has not been honored. Will 2 Chainz make this year’s list and who deserved #8 more?
