First post! I check a blog called Rap Up daily to keep up with important news regarding the hip hop community. Aside from my interests in photography, I am a DJ, and an avid music enthusiasts. This blog stays up to date with important record and mixtape releases. This is especially important so that I can source new material to incorporate into mixes I may be working on. Aside from release information, Rap Up is also a good source for gossip and news regarding important figures, or upcoming figures in the broader hip hop circle. Their writers are incredibly talented, and present their information and news objectively.
