Video After The Jump
MTV's Hottest MC's in the Game list has reached it's conclusion as the final two spots were handed out tonight.
Coming in at No. 2 is Atlanta rapper 2 Chainz. Some people may question Tity Boi being ranked this high, but there's no denying the fact that he was everywhere in 2012.
His album Based On a T.R.U. Story debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with sales of 147,000 copies in its first week. The project spawned the hits "I'm Different," "No Lie" and "Birthday Song." The album was nominated for Best Rap Album at the 55th Grammy Awards
"No Lie" has since been certified platinum with sales over 1 million.
2 Chainz also appeared on A$AP Rocky's "F*ckin' Problems," Nicki Minaj's "Beez in the Trap," Kanye West's "Mercy" and many more.
Coming in at No. 1 on the list is Compton's Kendrick Lamar. The Top Dawg Entertainment artist came into his own in 2012.
K. Dot's good kid, m.A.A.d city album sold 242,000 copies in its first week and has been certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
The project featured the hit singles "Swimming Pools (Drank)" and "Poetic Justice."
Kendrick made guest appearances on A$AP Rocky's "F*ckin' Problems," Birdman's "B-Boyz"; Schoolboy Q's "Blessed" and A$AP's "1 Train."
Congrats to Kendrick on nabbing the top spot.

Yo they need to change this to the hottest rappers in the game not MCs! By far anybody on that list has any real skill as far as lyrics go!! And I'm about tired if this Kendrick Lamar hype he has no bars just another rapper in the game ppl are trying to gravitate to because they are getting tired of drake and Wayne!!! Where the real spitters at anymore???!!!!

Sway is wack just like this list and Kendrick Lamar is wack also I mean swimming pools is so weak. I live in the tri state he gets no play around here 2 chains is aight every now and then. I mean come on Pusha T, Jay-Z 50 and Nas,TI and Killer Mike, Lloyd Banks, Rick Ross and Meek Mills. All should of been on this list The No. spot could go to Jay-Z or 50 its a coin flip. But not Kendrick Lamar smfh
