Lol @ the list, is worldstar even a blog?!!! Most of the blogs post the same content as nahright, they just steal and don’t create anuthing.
Shame on the person who came up with that list, probably biased and just copied/pasted his bookmarks…
LOL. Some BS. Not surprising thisis50.com isnt in there. The chick that runs VIBE mag is married to the old guy that runs that whack rapradar site.
Your telling me thisis50.com is not on it….
ThisIs50.com
TheYbf.com
NecoleBitchie.com
Should defintely be on the list…..VIBE obviously isn’t in the blogosphere…..
Ahahahaha! This has to be the most ridiculous list i have ever seen! Clearly Vibe is out of touch with Hip Hop and the popular sites. And yea, that guy Elliott who got fired from XXL (who interestingly is also not on the list) is married the some chick from Vibe. She spoke on a panel I went to at school and at the end she passed out wackradar business cards…..She prob works for wackradar now too since Vibe is going UNDER…..
OMG wow YOUNGKINGZ should have been on this for sure, when i saw this list i thought he would be in the upper half, maybe even top 10! this is crazy, shoutz to Kingz and YoungKingzDaily.net!! i go there more than twice a day. Next list oughtta have him on there. They did get it right with the NEW MUSIC CARTEL though, those sights be the ish, especially Splash at DaJaz1.com and Low Key at YouHeardThatNew.com
haha my bad i meant YK2Daily.Net (i never type it in cuz it always up in a tab, lol)
HaHaHa!
Very funny list as usual every other years…..I do not realy care if im on it or not !
Peace
ybf and necole bitchie shouldn’t be on the list. those are not rap sites. Just because they’re run by black people doesn’t automatically make them a rap site. But yeah, a lot of notable blogs are missing off of the list, and the fact that WSHH is on here automatically discredits it.
HOW IN THE WORLD DID THEY LEAVE OFF

I, am T W Griffin from College Park Films, we have a movie in the editing stages as we speak, with one of the most popular underground rappers in the game right now. Is there anyone out there that really knows a good list of blogs, so that I could get the word out about our Independent movie, this would be greatly appreciated. thanks twg@collegeparkfilms.com
HAHA WHAT A RIDICULOUS LIST.
REALLY THIS LIST IS WACK BUT FOR THE PEOPLE WHO SAID GOSSIP BLOGS SHOULD HAVE MADE THE LIST YOUR WACKER THAN THIS LIST……READ PEOPLE IT SAYS HIP HOP BLOGS! THISIS50 SHOULD DEFINITELY BE ON HERE SOMEWHERE THEY HAD A HUGE YEAR SO FAR!
THIS LIST IS A COMPLETE JOKE!
This list is missing so many blogs it is crazy!
I never ever post but this time I will,Thanks alot for the great blog.
There are many legit, quality blogs and sites not included on that list; especially culture related sites. This shows how skewed Vibe was in relating to Hip Hop culture. There are in the same wack ass boat as Viacom culture vultures: Mtv and BET.
If you want Hip Hop culture check out the growing directory found on OldSchoolScholar.com. Some of the listed sites here are on it. More will be added soon.
Peace.
Where the fuck is illRoots? Shit is right up there with 2dopeboyz and NahRight.
I swear theres so many hot sites out there right now. illRoots, FindTheShit, broken cool…damn they messed up this list!
no thisis50.com
psst!!! this list is a bum list…..trash
Cool story as for me. I’d like to read a bit more concerning that theme.
