Diggy Simmons In Top 5 For MTV's 'Hottest Breakthrough MC Of 2010' Along W/J.Cole, Nicki Minaj, Wiz Khalifa & Travis Porter. Who Do You Think Should Win? [Poll]


Video After The Jump

Diggy Simmons is already a celebrity as a result of his famous father, Rev Run, but the teen rapper has hopes of becoming a bona fide star in his own right through his music.

He's just begun his journey. Late last year, the Run-DMC progeny released freestyles on the beats for Drake's "Over" and Nas' "Made U Look," causing the teen rhyme-spitter's profile to increase.

Now, he's been tapped as a top-five MTV News "Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2010" finalist.

"Wow, that's huge," Simmons told MTV News' Sway. "That's dope. It's crazy to me. ... I'm at a loss for words. I've grinded and whatnot, but it's been a short amount of time. When I saw [the other 'Hottest Breakthrough' candidates], I was like, 'Eh.' I was excited that I was even put in there. But I didn't necessarily think I would win, because I haven't been grinding as long as some dudes. ... But the fact that I'm top five is huge."

The "Run's House" alum has released one mixtape already, First Flight, and is currently at work on the sequel, Airborne, which he hopes to drop shortly. He's inked a deal with Atlantic Records and is hard at work on his debut album.

The upstart also tweeted his appreciation for the nomination. "Wooow got voted into the top 5 for @mtv's breakthrough MC of 2010!!! #TeamDiggy ya'll are the best man I swear! Thank u :)"

Other MC's that made the top five are Nicki Minaj, Travis Porter, J. Cole and Wiz Khalifa.

Who do you guys think deserves to win?

Diggy gonna get that money, he a franchise within himself. Thats why being talented should go both ways...N***** don't get a pass for being sexy...I could see people sayin he aint paid his dues and due to his family he skipping the line, but Id rather see him skipped with talent than skipped without it. He young and he can't go no where but up.I gotta go with J. Cole and Diggy

If you're doubting this kid you're certified retarded. There's a reason he dropped 1 mixtape and got all this buzz. Look what Drake did. And I don't give a f*** if you also don't like Drake, numbers don't lie people.
