Sparkhop was founded in February, 2010. It was that month the site initially launched as a small hip hop blog built upon a team of dedicated creatives. Emcee's, graphic designers, producers & promoters working side by side using their passion for the music behind it all. A have fun mentality, a focus on quality music, & the drive to never give up on those things we love doing.

Over the last two years we've dropped nearly thirty original projects such as SKYWLKR "Strawberry Cough", Kolorful "In Living Kolor", Matt Schwartz, "X&O's Part III", Myke Murder, "Mixtape Theory", Dan Sykes, "Vocal Box Music" Joe Commisso " We Know Nothing", Chad Kush, "Cutlass Supreme", & many others. Our entire catalog of releases can be found at the releases link on top of the page.

Alongside our exclusive projects our team has helped assemble & or participate in nearly 100 local shows since being founded including 2011's Sparkfest '11 & BIG WAX 2012's Sparkfest '12 & our upcoming 3rd installment of the Sparkfest yearly Michigan Hip Hop Experience!

Above is just a few of the artists we've worked with through shows, projects, or team collaborations. We are currently looking for more bloggers. Are you addicted to hip hop & love to write? Email blogfor@sparkhop.com to inquire about blogging for us!
