MTV's recent "Hottest MCs In The Game" list has angered quite a few rappers, but Kendrick Lamar feels blessed to be sitting at number 1.
"You know what's crazy, we were looking at the years of the different MCs, and we were always like, 'Man, we gotta get on there, we gotta at least get on the list,'" said Kendrick. "But to make it to #1, that's a whole 'nother thing."
Not everyone was so pleased or gracious for their spot on the list. Kanye West expressed his qualms with the list and felt like he could've done better than 7th.
"Yeah #7 bothers me," said 'Ye. " For me, I feel like in order for them to put me at #7, they had to bring up things they didn't like--like the "Cruel Summer" album. And I'm like, that's a compilation, it ain't all rappers on G.O.O.D. Music..."
A$AP Rocky was also rather displeased with being placed at number 8, saying he would've rather not been on the list at all.
"It's frustrating when I'm number 8," he told the L.A. Leakers. "Don't put me at all. I need to be number 1."
