Recently Vibe Magazine sat down with Eminem. One of the things they discussed Eminem NOT included in MTV’s Hottest Rapper’s of 2009 List:
“That hottest MC list that I was left off, it was one of those things that I was glad that I am at where I’m at. I’m glad I’m in this place now, because a few years ago I would’ve let it bother me more than it did. I took it not as a slap in the face but more so like, “Maybe I’m not on that list for a reason. Maybe I’m not doing the things that I need to be doing. Maybe I need to look at myself and step it up.” I don’t know what I would have thought being in the mind state that I was in. I just felt like maybe I need to do better.”
