Well done guys thats huge! I dont think iv ever posted but trust I dont go a day w/o chekkin concrete loop! Congrats from London!!

Congrats Concrete Loop. Angel - I know this is very fulfilling for you seeing your dream getting the respect it deserves. Keep up the great work.

This site stands out above the rest!

Congrats to CL!

Yea, congrats on the accomplishment but I still think CL could be a tad bit better. Sometimes, Angel and Brian kiss certain celebs’ asses, and as a result, there are unbalanced, unfair posts on the blog. Like, Golden Brooks constantly gets aired out on here, but posters don’t air out Meagan Good for looking like a skank tramp. A rumor is a rumor…so I think all rumors should be addressed on an entertainment blog. Like, Alicia Keys was held accountable on some other blogs, and some of those bloggers have tried to contact her about the Swizz Beats rumors..but CL is like “Whatever, she still looks pretty at this event.”

This is a dope blog, nonetheless. Just putting in my two cents. It ain’t my blog, it’s yours…do what you do. I just think it could be a little more gritty, like TMZ.

That’s what’s up! I love CL. I don’t miss a day with out hitting up this site. Keep up the good work.

Get Crunk =/

Congrats guys *heart*

angel
i think i’ve been down with CL since the beginning and i commend you overall for a quality site. you are a daily destination and i find more crediblity here and a less snarky, but more informational tone than most other sites. I appreciate the black history, the politics and the graduation entry was great. kudos to you and your small but crack staff on the recognition.

YEA Concreteloop!!!

I’ve been tellin my peeps about CL since day 1 and they thought I was crazy.

Now they can’t get enough……

***soul clapping*** hell yeah CL- it don’t even surprise me…
Everyone seems to like what I like. And I loooooooove CL!
Maybe now ya’ll will post more stuff. Hit me up for some ideas *wink *wink

Congrats CL! You deserve it. This is the most well-rounded website around. Great job

Congratulations on your recognition!!! I love this website because its soo much more than gossip or ”fluff” as i like to call it….discovered the site recently and am mad i didn’t know about it before but now am on it all the time…..i can definately say the ‘Black History and Politics’ are my favourites and oh yea the music and fashion pieces!!

Congratulations to the CONCRETE LOOP team and its fantastic readers!! mad love :)

I Have My Favorites… And C L Ranks High. I Love The Fashion, Music, Hot Celebs… Shouts Out To Nelly And Will Smith For Keeping It Fly Swag And Sexy! Also I Enjoy The Political Updates. I Read All The Comments… ” A L L” The Comments! They Are Well Thought Out, Fully Expressed And Darn Right Funny. I Feel Like Im In Grade School Fighting To Be First In A Game Of Double Dutch On Quite A Few Of Those Other Sites.

That’s what’s up! Concrete Loop is definitely doing the thing, but it’s all for you, the readers. I am honored to be associated with such a great group of people and sincerely appreciate this opportunity.

Congrats to you, i’m glad to be amongst the 1 million loyal vistiors to this site. It really is a good mix of gossip and informative news. Keep up the good work!!!

[...] Angel mentioned, we appreciate all the love [...]

AND HEARD YOU GOT A NOMINATION ON BET !!!! Congratulations way to go CL!!!!

Keep up the GREAT work guys!

yayy CL!!!!!!!!!!!!

What I like about this site is the honesty. other blogs thinks its about them, but you guys just report the story and don’t become the story.Even when other sites break news, I always come here to confirm it. You guys put the I in integrity’s for blogging.
I was here when you started and as Rihanna said I told you i ‘ll be here forever ” i will stand under your umbrella. Others try to do the shock value bloging ,but you guys just keep it simple by just reporting the facts.

CONCRETELOOP IS GONNA TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!

MEDIATAKEOUT COULD NEVER BE YOU!!!

CL FOREVER!!!!!

I am 41 years old and I love your website. It is beautiful when a young person is doing something positive. I been on your site since the beginning and for you to stay with it and not give up, is truly remarkable. You do not realize what this is going to mean for you in the future. I think you are going to make a bigger mark in this world. Peace out angel.

Oh please dont delete my comment…..:(

I think one of the best things about this site is that it feels like a small community. CL is pretty big time, but it still feels like you are apart of a small inner circle.

Congratulations to CL!!

I think everyone will agree with me when i say, this is the best Info and entertainment website around. So many people TRUST cL. I know I do and I know my friends all over the world do. we call each other often talking about CL and whats on and i do not second guess anything said on this site because ya’ll have integrity. if ya’ll dont know, ya’ll say you dont know. And just so you know, CL is not just big in the states. its recognised everywhere. even in zimbabwe. i highly recommend CL and ive stopped buying print media coz first its full of bull, second its doesnt support environmental friendliness, third its real, not commercialized and politcally correct and i hope this holds firm & true through the test of time no matter how much fame ya’ll are awarded.fourth, the notion of paying hard earned money for crap doesnt sit ryt with me or anyone (i’d like to think)for that matter..lol..

im glad TIME recognised you and your great efforts to support our black race. and maybe a certain powerhouse lady of colour might actually think about calling ya’ll on her show and supporting you if she still supports the cause that is.Pity she didnt first though. any attempt now would to me and many others seem desparate and fake, but still good for CL. Seriously, its time to we stopped playing token roles in white dominated press/media and fought against black tax. im not racist by the way..im just not politically correct. its what i see. we dont get enough support no matter how much we try. its still big news to see a black girl cover a fashion mag.how sad is that. we still have so many awards to win as “first black person”, we even have to struggle to get the attention on fellow successful black celebrities and powerhouses.u either have to be disgustingly skinny, fair skinned or really dark and from africa to get any sort of attention. So thank you Concreteloop. Thank you so much for recognising, and making available to the black community around the world the media we want so we can support each other and learn from each other. we need more people like you. driven, focused, honest, hard working and friendly among all else. just one suggestion, i liked it when ya’ll posted pics of nigeria’s next top model. i thought maybe you would keep us posted so we know whats going on and maybe touch on a few high profile events in africa. it helps raise awareness of the progress being made in Africa and CL, u have so much influence. Africa, isnt dead and useless. big things are going on there and no one knows. the white media only shows the distruction and poverty as if the rest of the world is so peachy.. im from africa and i can tell you, its so beautiful and the entertainment industry is booming especially in south africa. i get so sick of peops asking if we live in trees or caves..i dunno…its just a suggestion..otherwise..THUMBS UP!!!

All the best and keep on keepin on!!!!!

***ERROR CORRECTED******.. “third(in reference to concrete loop), its real, not commercialized and politcally correct and i hope this holds firm & true through the test of time no matter how much fame ya’ll are awarded……..”

I remember spreading the word with friends about this site..now its in the TIMES!! Congrats!!

I was just thinking that I love concreteloop above all sites Just Yesterday!!! It’s like a Black Cosmo lol!! I could so see this site as a magazine too!

Congratulations Angel!

Trust me, you haven’t even touched the tip of the iceburg!

Your vision and hard work has truly made a difference in the lives of many!

All will agree when I say what would we do without our daily “hit” of Concreteloop and how empty our online experience was before it came to be!

God Bless You Always Sister!

Your Brother,

“Scurv”

Way to go CL! Congrates. Keep up the good work!

Congrats CL!!!!!

R.E.S.P.E.C.T… luv this website!!! (and I’m WHITE ^^)

Congratulations! I would love to see a Concrete Loop Tv show or magazine. But mostly the TV show because there aren’t enough Black people on TMZ and I don’t like the stories they choose to report about Black celebs. I’m really happy for you all!

Well Ive been a fan of this site for quite a while, so as always Concrete Loop you know Im happy for each of you individually…as well as a group/ team. Together you each are teamwork at its finest!
