Kanye West Angry and Disappointed? Reacts As MTV Places Him #7 On The ‘Hottest MCs’ List [LISTEN AUDIO]

Rapper Kanye West was rather upset when MTV announced their annual list of "Hottest MCs in the Game." MTV incurred the famed rapper's wrath.

West called in Hot 97's DJ Enuff telling him that he was disappointed about being placed at #7. He also said that decision was probably influenced more due to his lifestyle rather than his music.

West said he was disappointed with Sway Calloway, reporter and executive producer for MTV News"I gave Sway his first TV...and he ain't even remember that."

"Yeah #7 bothers me. I think that Wayne is the #1 rapper in the world...him and Jay and Em and certain people are trust the greatest rappers of all time," he said, reports HipHopDX. "For me, I feel like in order for them to put me at #7, they had to bring up things that 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...they want to diss me and be like, 'He did Cruel Summer and he can't say he ain't a part of it because he's on eight records'...[their decision is] definitely not based on a body of work."

He continued, "What happens is with these types of judges and people who review this, when you come in [the game], I had the pink polo and the backpack, then I'm checking all the boxes of that A Tribe Called Quest era and J Dilla and all that, so they want to champion it."

"They don't like Givenchy Kanye, they don't like Kanye in a kilt, they don't like Kanye in a relationship. I don't think it's like them going bar for bar. I said, 'He lucky I ain't have Jay drop him from the team.' Ain't no bar in the entire past 12 months that's hotter than that bar...I couldn't believe it. I gave Sway his first TV. He came over to my crib in Newark, New Jersey...doing beats with Jay and Beans and all them, I was getting a new TV, and I gave Sway his first TV...and he ain't even remember that."

The list had Drake at fifth position and rapper Big Sean at sixth. A$AP Rocky, Future and Meek Mill were placed after West by the MTV list.

The rapper has moved from dressing "neat and friendly" and has moved towards high-fashion and his relationship with Kim Kardashian seems to be what the press is interested, The Huffington Post reported.

Recently the rapper let off on Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie." He ranted, "I got love for Hov [Jay-Z], but I ain't f**king with that Suit & Tie" and on Taylor Swift saying, "Taylor Swift beat Beyonce at the Grammys? Beyonce be dancing in heels and s**t."
