The result was delete. Renzoy16 makes a valiant effort to prove notability, but his sources fall short. The article even appears slightly promotional in nature and discusses the content of the list rather than the list iteself. Sources presented are not significant or about the blog. v/r - T P 18:46, 24 January 2012 (UTC) reply
An annual list complied by a hiphop blog (although the article does not state this at present). I'm having trouble seeing this as a notable thing in its own right. The blog itself does not have an article, although Rocky Williform (the founder of the blog), StreetCred (another Williform blog) and this article seem to be a tiny walled garden created and maintained by single-purpose accounts.

Being noted in different articles across the web, will certainly increase the notability of the list and of the blog itself.
Notability can also be based on the amount of web content. Google is indexing 3.5 million pages on the website. See this screen shot ( Screenshot of Google Search Index) or type into Google the following: site:hiphopblog.com and you will get the search results. This makes the site notable.
Also, the articles are part of Google News Feed. You can click on news and type the following site and see that Google adds the articles into the Google newsfeed: site:hiphopblog.com. Also, see this screen shot of the Google News results ( Google News Search Screenshot)).
Google added the site's content as part of the Google and this is major. You dont become a part of the Google News if you are not a notable source.
--“ | When evaluating the notability of web content, please consider whether they have had any significant or demonstrable effects on culture, society, entertainment, athletics, economies, history, literature, science, or education. High-traffic websites are likely to have more readily available verifiable information from reliable sources that provide evidence of notability. However, smaller websites can be notable. Arbitrary standards should not be used to create a bias favoring larger websites. | ” |
Thereby meeting the criteria of (
Notability Web) trivial coverage such as content descriptions in Internet directories or online stores.--
