Just want to bring awareness to some things I’ve seen. Started my Site back in 2010 mostly influence by other pages I liked and admired such as Nigel D/RealtalkNy, Nahright, Missinfo tv, Elliott Wilson, & Brian "B.Dot" Miller. Just for fun posting videos, music,interviews ect. Related to Hip-Hop. Fast forward present day, I’m still doing it. I just like discovering new and different hip- hop or events involved or related to the culture, and sharing it with others.. Just wanna help others discover some dopeness.. - YAOSONER View all posts by YaosoneR
