The criteria is based on a combination of rhyme skill, flow and how those things are implemented musically as the main factors. The Brain Trust also considers buzz, impact, commercial success — sales, airplay, business ventures, Web presence, endorsements and helping to spawn other artists’ careers — and the intangible, impact: Can an artist not only contribute to the rap game but influence cultural shifts? Are they trendsetters? All of these factors — and the results of our audience poll, which closed last week and gets a vote at the Roundtable during the Brain Trust’s debate — contribute to deciding who is the Hottest MC in the Game. We’ll be announcing an MC’s rank every day this week, with the full list revealed on Sunday at 10 p.m. during “P. Diddy’s Starmaker”!

Personally If we’re talking about hottest right now and for the year, Loso should have been higher on the list not to mention he’s in the top 5 for album of the year.
Fabolous = Most underrated, agreed?

Fabolous definitely is the most underrated rapper in the game. To put him after Raekwon and 50 Cent is disrepectful. He should be at least top 5… personally I would put him top 3

I’m down south and I could jam LOSO for days. Loso’s Way is still the hottest album out right now. No disrespect to Jay!

YEA IMMA HAVE TO DISAGREE WITH THIS NUMBER 8 SPOT BECAUSE HONESLTLY THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT REALLY HAD A BUZZ IMPACT THAT ARE LYRICALLY GOOD AND ON THAT LEVEL IS JAY-Z AND FAB, YOU CAN THROW DRAKE IN THERE SOLELY BECAUSE HE HAD THE BIGGEST BUZZ IMPACT THIS YEAR BY FAR, GUCCI MAN HAD A DECENT BUZZ IMPACT THIS YEAR BUT HE IS NOT LYRICALLY UP THERE WITH FAB AND JAY.. SO I SAY FAB TOP 5 HANDS DOWN AND I DONT SEE HOW ANY PERSON COULD DISAGREE.
