Atlanta rapper Soulja Boy isn’t too happy about MTV’s “Hottest MCs in the Game VIII” list released this week.
The list includes fellow local rapper 2 Chainz, whose real name is Tauheed Epps, but he’s the only one. MTV says “2 Chainz reinvents himself, slaying G.O.O.D. Music features and a solo LP that helps land him the #2 spot.”
Soulja Boy, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, took to Twitter to blast the MC list: “THAT NEW MTV LIST IS SOME (expletive). IT HAS NO CREDITABILITY(sic) AND THE JUDGE PANEL HAD NO PASSION. IT WAS FIXED AND BIASED. NEXT YEAR THO,” the @souljaboy posting said Friday.
The “Hottest MCs” list includes Kendrick Lamar (1); 2 Chainz (2); Rick Ross (3); Nas (4); Drake (5); Big Sean (6); Kanye West (7); A$AP Rocky (8); Future (9); and Meek Mill (10).
