SDSU Retirement
My love for Hip Hop is not dead. However, life has taken me in different directions professionally and lead me to effectively retire from Hip Hop blogging. I should've put this post up 9 months ago as the official tombstone, and here it finally is. I had a lot of good times on this blog. Many thanks go out to all the readers and fellow bloggers in Hip Hop for linking and building with me, including Rafi, Eskay, DP, Metal Lungies crew, Henry, ItsTheReal, Enigmatik, FDB, Ian, L Boogie and everyone else. Also many thanks to all the mainstream publications that linked and drove traffic including Entertainment Weekly, VH1, MTV, Rolling Stone, USA Today, New York Magazine, Vibe (RIP), XXL, Blender (RIP), CMJ, Sirius Radio, NME, Harp (RIP), Paste (RIP), Spin, Gothamist and countless others.

- Engine Room Recordings, a record label I am the Head of Strategy and A&R for.
