'Hottest MCs In The Game:' Wale Grabs 10th Spot

Posted 2/13/12 4:38 pm EST by in Hip-hop, Music, Video

The seventh installment of "Hottest MCs In The Game," a roundtable hosted by MTV News' Sway Calloway, has narrowed down the top 10 most worthy MCs in hip-hop based on their impact, buzz, sales, lyrics, style and intangibles, like swag. After a heated debate of T.I. versus J.Cole versus Wale, Wale keeps his title and kicks off the list at number 10. He's been on the grind since he first started, figuring out his fanbase and releasing seven mixtapes before his anticipated sophomore album, Ambition. A mix of Wale's determination and reinvention is why the roundtable found him worthy.

Do you agree? Watch the heated debate below, and on MTV2 Sunday, Feb. 19, at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT, and join in the conversation on Twitter using the hashtag #HottestMC.

The 10 Best GIFs From The 2012 Grammy Awards

Posted 2/13/12 2:30 pm EST by in Funny, GIFs, Music

It was no small task, but Grammys host LL Cool J seamlessly transitioned from the somber--the death of legendary singer Whitney Houston--to the rest of the show and the many rousing, ridiculous performances.

From Chris Brown's troupe of women carrying penis-shaped ballons to an unexpected colonoscopy advocate to Katy Perry's and Rihanna's charged performances (and don't miss their canoodling), it was an awesome show. Naturally, we watched with an eye toward capturing the best GIF-able moments and present them to you after the jump.

Andrew W.K.'s New Song Kicks Off World Snowboarding Championships

Posted 2/10/12 5:00 pm EST by in Music, Sports

The World Snowboarding Championships kicks off in Oslo, Norway, this week and as we mentioned yesterday during our chat with Andrew W.K., the WSC brought in the rocker/partier extraordinaire as the "Official Rock And Roll Ambassador" to get the festivities started.

So Mr. W.K. teamed up with the WSC Band and dropped the stompin' new song "My Time." Next month, Andrew W.K. will be touring for the 10th anniversary of I Get Wet, but for the next week he's in Oslo hosting concerts and parties. And our jerky 2-D editor Ryan McKee (as well as hordes of Nordic babes) will be there for it all. We eagerly await Ryan's tales of snowboarding and debauchery.

No MIA For Odd Future's Earl Sweatshirt

Posted 2/9/12 11:00 am EST by in Hip-hop, Music, News

Usually when we talk about a rapper returning to the public eye after an extended hiatus, it's after a stint in the slammer (see: 2pac, Lil Wayne, T.I., etc.). But for Odd Future's youngest member, Earl Sweatshirt, it's after an extended stay at a Samoan reform school. While the details are still hazy, it seems Earl's mother grew wary of OFWGKTA's hyper-violent, disturbed musical output (which we're sure was a lot less palatable to her when they weren't rich and famous from it). So before the group was even a known entity, she sent her son for mental detox at boarding school.

Well the man, the myth is back, with a new song "Home" at his new Tumblr (and a new Twitter account). The acrobatic rhymes and deadpan delivery are back. And at only 1:46, the track leaves us all wanting more. It also leaves us with a few big questions:

1. Will Odd Future truly soar now that (arguably) their most talented MC is back in the mix?

2. How will new Earl react to OFWGKTA's (and his) new fame?

3. What will Odd Future do with all that "Free Earl" swag?

4. Will they give it to MTV Clutch to raffle off as prizes to readers?

By now, the Super Bowl Hype Machine has covered every possible angle for Sunday's massive event. Except one: Madonna will have the most ripped arms on the field. Sorry, Osi Umenyiora.

She may be 53 years old, but Madge flaunts the most toned arms in music, so anyone with tickets to the Super Bowl also landed two tickets to the gun show.  But how do her pythons stack up against prior Super Bowl performers? Beginning with Super Bowl XXVII from 1993, which was the advent of the modern-day popstar-splosiongasm that is the halftime show, we've looked back at previous performers and ranked them by arm strength. Find out where Madonna lands below.

LFL Playoffs Preview

Posted 1/25/12 5:50 pm EST by in Ladies, Music, TV

The table is set for the 2011-2012 LFL Playoffs: the Tampa Breeze (3-1) will face the Philadelphia Passion (4-0) for the Eastern Conference crown, and the defending champion Los Angeles Temptation (3-1) will knock cleats with the undefeated expansion franchise Las Vegas Sin (4-0). If both of these matchups look familiar it's because they are: Both contests are rematches of regular season contests.

Eastern Conference Championship--Jan. 29 at 4 p.m. ET on MTV2

Almost five months ago, on Sept. 9 of last year, the Passion and Breeze opened the season against each other, and the ladies from the City of Brotherly Love poured some haterade all over the Breeze to the tune of a 48-0 smackdown. Passion running back Marirose Roach ran for 103 yards and scored five touchdowns. But all that matters is how each squad is playing now. That said, the Passion are still awesome, and after falling in last year's Lingerie Bowl against the Temptation by just one point, they're damn hungry.

Bret McKenzie, one half of New Zealand's Flight of the Conchords, is now one half of the Academy Awards pool for "Best Original Song" nominees. McKenzie penned "Man or Muppet," which features the vocal stylings of Jason Segel and muppet Walter, for last year's "The Muppets." Before the tune faces off against some crap from "Rio" at the Oscars, we decided to put together a Man or Muppet Quiz. Below we've listed the names of 20 obscure Muppets and musical acts. You have to guess if each one is a Man or a Muppet.

The answers are at the bottom of the post. No peeking.
