The list of rappers criticizing MTV’s “Hottest MCs” list has gotten longer by the day. Rapper Ace Hood has now voiced his perspective on the list, revealing during an interview that he thinks making the Forbes list alongside hip-hop’s wealthiest means more than making a list for hip-hop’s hottest.

“I would definitely want to be on that Forbes list because I’m hot and I’m getting money,” Ace told SOHH. “I would rather be on the Forbes list, definitely, reason being just because at the end of the day, I feel like when people create those kinds of lists, they don’t really base it off true lyricism. That’s what I think, personally. I think the lists are a little biased, personally, because if you base it off lyricism, then Ace Hood should be included in that list. Or J. Cole should be included in that list. That’s just my opinion.”
