Los Angeles, CA - June 1, 2011- The Black Weblog Awards have announced the
finalists for the 2011 Black Weblog Awards. The awards are an annual celebration of
Black social media excellence and Rox Fontaine is a finalist for Best Hip Hop Blog.

The Black Weblog Awards was founded in 2005 to give recognition to Black bloggers
(and those of the African diaspora), which are normally largely overlooked by other
Internet award events on, and offline. Members of the public through an online
nomination process selected finalists. Blog award winners will be determined by popular
vote. Online voting ends June 17, 2001.

"The Black Weblog Awards create amazing energy each year within the Black
blogosphere," said Gina McCauley, the Executive Director of the 2011 Black Weblog
Awards. "It is that one time of year when we all pause to recognize the hard work and
determination it takes to produce content and build vibrant engaging online communities
year-round."

This year in the first time in the seven-year history of the Black Weblog Awards, the
winners will be announced in a live ceremony in Los Angeles, CA on July 9, 2011 during
the 2011 Blogging While Brown Conference. "I am delighted and excited that the Black
Weblog Awards will be presented with the Blogging While Brown Conference," said
Maurice Cherry, Founder of the Black Weblog Awards. "This is an amazing opportunity
to showcase hard-working bloggers, video bloggers, and podcasters to an audience of
tastemakers and influencers."
