Anybody else disappointed by The Sopranos' last episode?

Anyways, I'll be holding down T.R.U. 'til big homie Rizoh comes back from his well-earned vaca'. Stay tuned...

Labels: rizoh, The Rap Up

it is with great sappiness that i announce the interim departure of your beloved blogger riz matic from the blogosphere. the time-off, needed to pacify some personal proceedings, is expected to commence on the 10th day of june, in the year of our Lord 2007. i shall return 7 days thereafter (which translates to eternity in blogger terms).

meanwhile, resident TRUbian ivan rott will be on hand to provide you with ample arrest stories and vanity fair cover updates to keep you satiated until i come back like kris styles wearing the 45.

one love,
riz "i need some damn piña colada in my life" matic

Phew! I can't believe it's been two years since I launched The Rap Up. What started as one man's rant-land has now turned into a hip-hop hive.

I remember back when I would spend hours updating the blog only to end the day with a total of, say, 50 unique visitors. 850,000 visits and 1.6 million pageviews later, I can't thank those 50 readers enough.

Shout out to everyone who has ever stopped by or bookmarked T.R.U. Whether you found us through a friend's blogroll or via a Google search for 'Stacy Dash Playboy pics', your visit is appreciated. I'm also enormously grateful to all the bloggers who inspired me to add my voice to the discussion back when hip-hop blogging was the new new--O-Dub, Hashim, Clyde, Ian, Jay Smooth, etc--and all the ones who still inspire me to step my game up everyday (read: almost everyone on my blogroll).

Now, tell me, how did you first find out about The Rap Up?
