Letter From The Founder Of Roman's Rap-Up

To our readers,

On June 25th, 2013, I set out to create a small music-news blog with the simple goal of “no-gossip” reporting. The past year has been an amazing journey for Roman’s Rap-Up. What started as a small, local blog, has grown into an internationally known music news hub. Not only have we reported the latest and most up-to-date news from the music industry, but also we’ve brought you exclusive interviews with the biggest names in the industry, like Pusha T, Hunter Hayes, Jennifer Lopez, and more. Along the way, we’ve also conducted exciting giveaways as well.

In the coming months, we look forward to giving you even more coverage and photos from the hottest events, along with even bigger and better giveaways.

On behalf of everyone here Roman’s Rap-Up, I thank you for your continuing support. I can’t wait for you to see what’s in store!

-Benjamin Esakof
