After seven years as a freelance writer for several rap magazines both of his own design (HardC.O.R.E., HEADzUP!) and those owned and run by others (181-4.com, HipHopSite, URB Magazine) Steve 'Flash' Juon conceived of the idea for this site in December of 1999 as both a one-stop resource for reviews which he either penned or appeared in any of his publications or websites.

Starting with an archive of 150 reviews from the past 18 months of OHHLA.com, Flash expects to have archived no less than 500 reviews by the end of 2000 including both his own large catalogue of work and submissions from fine writers such as B. Ridge and DJ Fatboy. The ultimate goal of RapReviews.com is to be the internet's definitive one- stop resource for any rap review of any album, EVER. It's a monumental goal but one which means the website will be continually enhanced with new material, never getting stale.

If you are interested in contributing to this project and think you have the necessary skills as a writer, contact Flash with a resume of your skills and experience. All writers submit on a voluntary, non-profit basis and our advertising exists only to cover webhosting expenses. The compensation writers receive is in exposure through our organization. Past contributors to Flash's projects have gone on to work for URB Magazine, UrbanEarth.com, and SonicNet among others. Please be at least 18 years of age or older.
