About

TheUrbanTwist.com was founded in 2006 by 5 friends who attended the University of Pittsburgh who’ve kept in touch with each other throughout the years as they each chased their own personal dreams and aspirations.  5 different people with 5 different backgrounds came together to form a unique bond on the net, for the whole world to see.

This is a site dedicated to providing the urban community with music, videos, news, and opinions while discussing certain topics in a way to engage our audience.  We encourage our audience to interact with one another through the various social interaction elements on the site such as story commenting and/or via social networking sites such as Facebook or Twitter.
