Ye, Drake, Weezy and Hov Take 4, 3, 2, 1 Spots in Hottest MCs in the Game Contest

MTV's Brain Trust ranked the emcees based on the criteria of lyrics, flow, impact, buzz, record sales and "intangibles" that make the artists unique. And the fabulous four are:

No. 4: KANYE WEST

I know that people in the tweets were mad that Eminem was missing from the list. But I think that the top four was kind of as predicted. What do you think? Who was left out?

Appalled! Really? Gucci above Jeezy, Fiddy and Loso?

LMAO at Shaheem's comment though: "He's such a rebellious character. Right now, this minute, we don't know if he's in jail, if he's in rehab. We don't know where the hell Gucci is, but we just know that his music is hot right now."
