Yesterday Meka informed me that we took the number three spot on VIBE’s 50 Hottest Blogs list. I decided to hold off on posting until we could get that official official word. Welp… dopeboyz and dopegirlz, it’s official! Something I’m extremely proud of actually. We’ve been doing this for less than a year and a half. I’d like to think we did a damn good job to be ranked so high in the short amount of time we’ve been running. This past year has been surreal. Hearing an artist I’ve been listening to for at least 10 years shout our site out is amazing. Every time I even hear of people knowing about the site, it’s a great feeling. I truly wanna thank the dopeboyz for continuously coming to the site and letting us do what we do.
I also wanted to point out that the NMC took 5 of the top 11 spots (6 if you count the lovely unofficial first lady). Big ups to everyone, wherever you placed (full list after the jump). Our time has come….
MEKA: Around this time two years ago I was an office jockey, making coffee and stuck feeling like I was going nowhere fast. What a difference two years makes. It’s still an amazing feeling knowing what I do is recognized by people to this day, and I thank each and every supporter, follower, commenter, shit-talker and detractor alike for getting us to the level it’s at more. We still got much more for everyone, so just keep it locked here. Now if you’ll excuse me, I got to bark on a few heads about my money, Dame Dash-style.
