Here’s a loyal reader’s perspective on this new blog beef kicked up by Angel Laws of Concrete Poop, who is salty because all that brown nosing she’s been doing isn’t paying off for her. While she was hobnobbing with celebrities, walking red carpets and poppin’ bottles, she forgot about her base — so they forgot about her. Oops.
Hi Ms Sandra Rose, this is Trapp with The MIC DVD. I was writing to let you know that I used to go to that concrete loop blog but it quickly became just another boring blog to me. I understand that it was at one point in time one of the top urban blogs out there. My question is why is the woman complaining now. When she was on top there was no complaining about people stealing her ideas and all this other mess. Soon as she realizes she has lost her influence in the blog world she comes out with all this. Everybody knows that once you become in the upper echelon in any industry that’s when the real work has to begin in order to keep your place at the top. When you get caught up in the trips back and forth to New York and all the exclusive parties she should have thought about that new blog that’s waiting to take her place in the bogging world. Now she’s hating on you because you constantly find innovative ways to connect with your readers. Maybe instead of her attending some of these exclusive functions she should have did a contest like you do for her readers to attend.

sandra does deliver on the contest she promotes. her word is bond with me :).
Now if she can only spread that love outside of AtL I’ll be happy.
You are always into bags. Have a bag giveaway. A shoe certificate.
Anyway, In reality you being as big as you are now in the blog world. (U know w bow wow, solonge & R.L responded to ur post within hours) you are giving this woman more shine than a little bit.
I personally never visited her site b4 or heard of her till today.
@ Sandra where is the post on Bow Wow giving up rap to focus on acting? You took him down, lol.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. Angel fall back take the “L”. You making it more serious then it needs to be
I guess i agree with the emailer. Didn’t care when people was stealing her shyt when she was getting hits, now she cares. Boo hoo.
I just checked her stats, yesterday she got 100,000 uniques. What exactly is this all about?
@coco

WHO?? LOL..no seriously..never heard of this chick or her site until today… to funny =0)

********************************************
At one time she was getting a lot more traffic than that. She’s losing readers so she’s going after the blogs that she feels she is losing readers to.
the day i posted a comment that the “high school high bunch” including CL staff had messed with the wrong organization when they made jokes about gary coleman and his ashy hands and a group of nurses or some diabetes foundation addressed them directly-was they day I was banned from their site
so you it’s completely about azz kissing over there, at least here you can speak your mind and it’s not about a popularity contest
Maybe she should take it to the streets and fight the bloggers and make it official. All that back and forth blogging is boring. Quit talking if you ain’t doing shit about it. We need WAR
I admit I used to read CL but it became too many post about Christina Milian and Cassie, 2 people no one cares about. Not to mention posting all those designer clothes during a recession as well as those damn pop ups got on my nerves. And how are people copying them? Most black blogs cover the same people anyway

===============
100,000 is still alot though. Way more then what the other coming up blogs are getting so she shouldn’t be getting her panties (jock strap?) in a bunch.
CL is boring boring boring. I click off of it as soon as that ad stuff interrupts. Sandra, please, don’t ever have all that going on on here.
agreed Smokie. Do you remember when that Amare Stoudamire advertisement took over the whole SR site. I was like ah hell naw, her we go again. I think (hope) that was just some glitch though.
CL used to be the stuff, I said that in the original post but it fell of more so for the posters immaturity then the content itself. NB and SR are my regulars now.
Drama keep numbers…If you don’t keep drama then you don’t have nada.
JMO
hush dblaq! lol
“NB and SR are my regulars now.”
Same for me … the only other site, I go to is YKYDAW.COM … now that site has me rofl as a result, I can’t take that daily though.
I heart SR.COM …
And those ADS, that take up the page are disgusting … cna’t stand that! The KeyCo one like that on this page, was on my nerves to.

I never heard of that other site until today, so Sandra may be doing CL a favor by even mentioning her blog here. That said, I don’t think I’ll be revisiting her site.
I started reading SR because of her political take on Obama. I kept reading because of Sandra’s witty posts. I’m not into hip-hop or the hip-hip culture, but I love Sandra’s posts.
Now I walk around talking about what’s going on in Atlanta and who’s twittering. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad. LOl
Scared of this East Post/West Post e-wars lmao
Well she for damn sure can’t say you biting on shyt cause, she was quick to put you on blast for you doing you (Sandra)……….shyt like “we don’t post that like Sandra Rose”
girl fukk you, stay in yo lane den….Sandra ain hurting for shyt! Why you mad?
man it’s hard out here for a pimp….
I used to read Concrete Loop, but stopped once they made it exclusionary. I have no desire to be a part of a clique…i.e. kissing one “starruhs” arse. She cut her own throat when she began with the registration. Most folks just be floating through gossip sites and may occasionally want to post something. She put that registration on there and I said forget it; don’t have time to register for a site that pretty much posts the same stuff as YOUNG BLACK AND FABULOUS (another site I don’t go to anymore because it’s just BLAH.
lol, oh i thought thats what they all do.. Cause most of them have the same stories, same pictures, etc hell even the layouts are similiar… but cl is wack
ok so heres the thing i visit concreteloop but there asses has seriously been OUT OF THE LOOP they are slacking on their postings as of late….you may be negative for the most part but at least you update as much as possible
i think both of you need need to just let it be….this aint a hip-hop battle although she should have kept that comment to herself….and i thought everybody stole from one another….you gotta get the pics from somewhere right??? i mean damn….matter of fact sandra your about the only site i see with pictures of events that nobody else puts up….anyway…..lol
@ Iyonah, I just foud YKYDAW about a month ago and I stay dying all day… between Moe’s commentary and the hilarious comments… priceless.
As for this blogger beef, Auntie I don’t agree with you all the time, but I do respect you for remaining consistent and in touch.
i guess i’m the only one that still like cl! lol
dang has blogging gotten this serious ?
@ licia,
There’s POWER in words.
Since blogging and the intranetz these celebs don’t stand a chance of pulling the wool over fans eyes. WE SEE ‘EM as they really are now. Screw Hollyweird. LOL
@Ms Tia: I totally agree. SR has the upper hand in that she obtains photos herself from these events that NOBODY else has. Yes, its ATL events, but lord knows I HEART the ATL
Sandra, bring back the smileys!!
