Twitter & Hip Hop: Who You Should Be Following.
Author: AaronM // Category: Hip-Hop, Random stuff
I’ve been doing this Twitter stuff since August of last year and I’ve noticed a bunch of prominent hip hop figures on there as well, some of whom I’ve started following (that means their updates show up in your timeline).
Here a few people whose Twitter pages are worth following:
-One of my favourite rappers, Q-Tip, updates his fans on his daily activity (hasn’t been updated in 2 months)
-Jay Smooth of WBAI’s Underground Railroad and videoblog Ill Doctrine (and hiphopmusic.com)
-Hashim of Hip Hop Blogs
-Khal of Rock The Dub
-Mixtape DJ Mick Boogie
-JBlow of All Up In Your Earhole
-the infamous Byron Crawford
-ML friends Soul Bounce have a Twitter feed
Tavis Smiley and my man Obama do it too.
Hell, you can follow me too if you want here. Anyone I missed?
Edit: I’m going to try to keep this updated as I discover more hip hop related people on Twitter.
