Was the 'Top 10 Best UK MC's' List Fair?

Okay, so let me get the heads up. We are all aware of the list which was on MTV Base just a moment ago on top 10 UK MC's. The list went like this:

1. Tinie Tempah
2. Dizzee Rascal
3. Skepta
4. Proffessor Green
5. Wiley
6. Giggs
7. Devlin
8. P. Money
9. D. Double
10. Chipmunk & Lowkey

Congratulations to everyone who made it on the list, but there are some rising eyebrows. There were some names I was expecting to be on the list such as Ghetts  and Wretch 32, I could name a few. There are some MC's that have been working they're guts off, practically living in the studio but they're effort has gone unnoticed on the show this night. As well as fans raising their eyebrows about the list, Ghetts released his emotions via Twitter. But this doesn't mean that the names on the list on are the hardest working MC's. As for names that didn't make it on the list, they're efforts don't go unnoticed by supporters like us and we will keep supporting no matter what.

Now, rumors say, this is the original list that had been made for the top 10:

1. Tinie Tempah
2. Skepta
3. P Money
4. Wiley
5. D Double E
6. Devlin
7.Wretch 32
8. Proffessor Green
9. Giggs
10. Maxsta

The list was only changed a night before the show was due to be launched on MTV Base. The list was changed due to pressure. 2 MC's were left out, Chipmunk and Dizzee Rascal. It is fair to say that it was quite unfair for they're names to be up in the list due to pressure, they should have been put in the list due to their hard work, bearing in mind that Chipmunk has had a sold out tour, put out mix tapes and featured on some of the biggest street tracks recently including ‘Pow 2011′ and ‘Gameover’.

Well what can we say, there will never be a list that everyone will agree on as we all have different views. One man's worst can be another's man's best. Whichever the case, Ebony Sound will continue to show support to those who's hard work never go unnoticed.

  1. Interesting, the list seems pretty fair if you ask me, in my opinion the U.K scene needs a saviour, everyones making more money than before the but the music itself is getting chessier and catchier instead of powerful and inspiring, thats why Ghetts went from tunes like top 3 selected to .. 'Skaddosh'. He should've seen this coming. ah well
    Keep up the blog...
