GYANT UNPLUGS FROM SOHH.com
The most successful blogger on SOHH for the past three years has stepped down from his blog post and launched his own site gyantunplugged.com. Gyant, the undisputed mouth of the south, has decided to branch out on his own. With awards and accolades from BET (Top Blogger of the Year 2007) and Black Web Blog (2008), Gyant is a major force in the world of hip hop and urban blogging.
In just 3 years, the New York native relocated to Atlanta and built a solid base of followers who looked to his SOHH Atlanta blog for up to the minute hip hop news and gossip. He simultaneously maintained the SOHH Ya Heard blog that was recently renamed SOHH Gyant Scoop, which included daily doses of mainstream gossip. His exclusive posts have been reposted on other popular sites such as Mediatakeout, World Star Hip Hop, Dimewars, Crunk & Disorderly, AJC.com, Perezhilton.com, among others. He's managed to secure exclusive interviews with a-list celebrities such as Jermaine Dupri, Ludacris, T.I., Neyo, Flo Rida, Cornell West, Wendy Williams, Killer Mike, Eric Benet, Jennifer Hudson, Alicia Keys and more. As a tastemaker, Gyant also helped build an internet presence for independent artists Asher Roth, Rock City and Gorilla Zoe. With a no holds barred attitude, he's had run ins with artists such as Bow Wow and Soulja Boy, who both later understood that blogging should not be taken personal.
Gyant's decision to part ways with SOHH was due to his need for financial independence. He explains, "Former and present co-workers all advised me that this day would come. Luckily, working for pennies is a labor of love when you love what you're doing. That is why I am stoked to launch my new site, gyantunplugged.com, which will house all the exclusive content that I've consistently delivered on SOHH."
Gyant has resigned from SOHH, however his blogging days are far from over. His daily dish on the A-Z celebrities, upcoming stars and interesting take on celebrity drama can be found at his new blog site gyantunplugged.com. In addition to blogging, Gyant has ventured into the world of television and radio. He can be heard on Dirt Law Radio and 96.5 the beat in Michigan. "I'm grateful to have worked with the one leading hip hop website, but now I'm ready to build my own, so I can reap the fruits of my labor. I'm also ready to explore new opportunities in radio and television."

Support Our Independent Record Stores
Saturday April 18th was Record Store Day throughout America. Over 1, 000 independent record stores celebrated by offering their customers in store performances, fantastic promotions and literally thousands of value added items. Record Store Day was started last year and was met with a huge response. It was covered by local and national press and was more successful then anyone could imagine. Not only did the majority of the merchants report big profits for that day, they also experienced higher then normal business for several weeks after the event. Mayor Michael Bloomberg has issued an official proclamation declaring Saturday April 18th as “Record Store Day” in NYC.
