History

High school friends Greg Watkins and Chuck Creekmur founded the website in 1998.[5] Watkins and Creekmur grew up in Newark, Delaware.[6] In 1997, Watkins registered the allhiphop.com domain to promote the artists on Oblique Recordings, a small record label he operated. The website provided music downloads to promote the label's artists. After reaching 30,000 downloads a month, Watkins struck deals with eMusic and other retailers to sell downloads. His friend Creekmur, a freelance journalist, had launched a website, tantrum-online.com, in New York City. After merging the companies, they adapted Trantrum's exclamation point logo for AllHipHop.[7] By 2003, the business generated enough revenue for Watkins to quit his job and work on the website full-time. Creekmur did the same next year. In 2007, the revenue exceeded US$4 million.[6]

On, August 12, 2017, AllHipHop announced[8] it had partnered with Maven, a company based out of Seattle, to manage their entire digital media platform.
