most of yall cosigned the move back then but lets be honest ... GFID reported might be pushed back as early as next week.

Drake touring.
Albm approaching 1.5 mil units sold
On every hot remix or featured song. (WITB, Pop That, No lie, Amen, Right Here)


Ross still making those generic singles. I mean they sound good but they aren't mega hits ... almost getting to recyclables meaning if you miss this single you can catch the next one with the same cadence and same attempt.

TO me its clear that Ross got that #1 slot off of his mixtape that was suppose to be his album and his movement MMG cuz his solo artists are doing their thing. Wale, Meek Mill


But I dare anyone to make a real argument defending MTV picking Rick ross over Drake for the #1 Hottest hottest person in hip hop

His mixtape was his album . . . its no suprise a track off his mixtape did better than the "4" singles he put out.

I Love My Bytches produced by Just Blaze
You The Boss featuring Nicki Minaj
Touchn You featuring Usher
So Sophisticated featuring Meek Mill

0/4 for album singles.

His best charted song this year that is his is 58th and its Stay Scheming. How does a mixtape track do more than 4 tracks u put out w/ marketing $ pushing em?

They were right then but its clear Drake is the hottest nikka in the game right now no doubt whatsoever. The hottest music, the hottest singles, busting bottles over r&b nikkas heads...dude is burning right now.

you one of them nikkas who actually votes for videos on 106 & park and waits to see what place it comes in

your one of those c00ns who really dont understand the game.

fam im around the industry every day.

These lists matter .. when it comes to booking award performers .. show prices n all that album priority (as far as label goes) n all that.

saying that this list dont matter is like saying the XXL freshman list dont either.

You have to be clearly delusional or clearly retarded.

The timing of MTV's list is completely arbitrary and is what decides who lands where just as much or more than anything...seemed to me they decided to do it immediately in the wake of Rich Forever just to put Ross at #1 (i'd put money on them originally planning to do it after the first GFID release date but held off once it got pushed back), but other than that I can't argue with him being #1
