Ive been going solo at this blogging thing for seven months now with relatively no problems but have come to realize this site would drastically improve with more authors. It would be great to get more opinions on the site from people other than me, and the increased number of posts can only be a good thing. So I am extending an offer for anyone interested in joining the team to send me an email and we can talk further.

With that being said im looking for someone that has…

A taste in music similar to what gets posted on the blog now. (if OJ Da Juiceman is your favorite rapper, this may not be the place for you)
Some general knowledge about the world of blogging.
Knowledge about file sharing sites and file types.
Enough time to make (at least) one post a day.
A passion for hip-hop and the realization that the only gain from being an author on a hip-hop blog is the personal enjoyment of sharing music with others that have the same taste you do.
