Top Blogs of 2011


It is that time of year again for me to put together a little list of my favorite blogs of 2011. It's been two years since I last put together a list. I have some of the same blogs still going strong and some new ones. I have definitely lowered the amount of sites I visit daily from about 50 to only about 15 to 20 at the most. My attention span has lowered so you have to be writing or posting something that keeps my attention. It's just to easy to just go and watch Trailer Park Boys online now. So you better have something funny, shit talking, or good music for me to stick around and get my daily visit. That's what all of these blogs below do on just about a daily basis. I have no specific order anymore, just a list of the best blogs I checkout daily on the interwebs.
Ghetto Gifs At Their Finest
I have no idea how the hell I found this site full of hilarious ghetto gifs and pictures. You know when people say "real tears" on twitter? This actually does that to me. The shit JScott finds and his quotes are so damn funny.His love for trap music also makes me an avid follower of this site.
Top Dawgs Of Urban Blogging
John Gotti has made TSS one of the greatest hip-hop blogs on the internet. His skill and his teams skill at reporting all types of news is great. You never see them just post a song and a download link. Nope not over there. They always have a decent amount to say about every song. Plus they have great feature articles and lists.
 It's not always sunny in the D nor is it warm, but Goergs keeps me updated with all of the Michigan sports news. From pro sports to college and even some high school updates. He has lists like this and that. Plus he has a sense of humor when it comes to sports and really knows what he is talking about.
the.LIFE Files is everything pop culture. From the richest shoes to Yeezy's latest headline to news. They constantly have updates on everything pop culture. This has to be the girliest site I visit.
Nerd is a new one on this list. I just found out about Nerd and his cool table movement. He has one of the funniest blogs on the internet today. He is just a normal dude with a lot of twitter followers and the right things to say. He has awesome feature posts like blogs I cosign, Dope or Nope, random thoughts, and a ton of guest bloggers.
 JaimLou aka Lil Lou is the first female blogger I really started fucking with. I never really knew of any out there until the year of 2011. She isn't posting every track that drops or mixtape. It is kinda like this blog, just posting music and shit I like. She showed me a good time in NYC when I was there a few months back. Jaims and I have the same taste in a lot of artists so I think that's why I like her blog so much. Actually it is because of her slander.
 Broken Cool is like a mini TSS to me. It's just one talented guy from Toronto, Canada. I've been checking his site for about two years now. He has taken small breaks in between that time too. I still checked weekly hoping he would be back and he did. I don't go to this site for the music, but more for the talent he has with writing, his Ridiculous Rap Lyrics feature and videos.
It is that time of year again and the snow really isn't on the ground out here in the 586. But that doesn't stop  Dave from giving me all the updates of the Michigan ski resorts. I would have to say he loves snowboarding more than anyone else in the Michigan hills filled with no snow. I really like how he's just a normal guy who just want snow from November to April.
I have been fucking with DGB for over three years now. First it was just Moe, then Blu joined the team and last was Dre. They run the best street music blog on the internet. Plus they are all real cool guys. Moe is from Detroit, hence the Dirty Glove reference. They have turned me onto some great artists like Don Trip and Trouble just to name a few. Plus the co-sign on certain rappers. They don't just post any and everything. There is no room for Rick Ross, Brisco, and Lil Wayne on their blog and I like that.
Sermon has also come a long way from the day I started following his site. He was one of the first blogs that was posting all this random unknown artists. He had all the big name artists and he also had all these artists I had no idea about. I felt like I found a gem with his site, not saying it isn't. I was getting all of these songs from artists that nobody else knew. I loved finding new artists daily and that's what he provides. Now he taken on the whole hip-hop scene by getting interviews with big name artists. I've seen his struggle and success go up and down via twitter and I congrat him on what he has accomplished.

Honorable Mentions
Confusion is the owner of P&P and he is by far one of the best and most mysterious bloggers on the web. His blog posts are always interesting with some of the weirdest comparisons and funny stories. The whole infatuation with pigeons does kinds a freak me out though. Con has a great team as well, plus he received the greatest job ever with Complex. He is living the bloggers dream. I have done a few posts for them and loved it every time. I'm working on another post as well. Pigs&Plans have everything from rap to rock to pop.
I feel like putting the site I help run on the list is kind of unfair. But I don't care, only 6 people with read this blog and 2 will make it this far through the list. If you don't smoke weed then this site won't be all that great. But if you do, you have found the right site. We are the blog for the stoners of the weed community plus we keep you up to date with everything going on in the weed community. Our features are also bad from Mary Jane Of The Moment, Pics, Stoner Song Of The Week, Bong Of The Day, and plenty more.
Mostly Junk Food
Like Pigeons and Planes but a little different. They have some of the funniest and best writing on the web. They are what is going to keep blogging about music around. I said they were like the Odd Future of the blog game and a few didn't like that but fuck school they are to me.
This gets an honorable mention because there are just too many tumblr's to name. Tumblr is the coolest picture blog on the web. Every you can think of then the millions of others you never would of thought of. I suggest you get on that site now if you like cool pictures of every and anything.
