About
What is Hot 110?
Founded in May 2009, Hot 110 was bourne out of a need to represent the underground creative UK scene and encourage a cross fertilisation of disciplines, promotion and ideas. With the rapid expansion of the website, it has grown into more and continues to develop and expand into new territory as we continue to collaborate and feature the top names and up and coming talent in the UK and further afield.
Hot 110 is more than just another run of the mill lifestyle blog that poaches content - 90% of our content is written, filmed or produced by us, in house - we believe in giving our readers exclusives.
Why the name Hot 110?
“Hot 110″ was a term, coined in the 1970s used to refer to a graffiti writer going over another writer’s work. The reasons for writing “Hot 110″ over someone else’s work varied on the individual graffiti writer. The main reason a graffiti writer went over works of another writer, was to retaliate against the other for going over his/her work, which is a sign of disrespect.
We believe that creativity can’t exist without competition. It’s time to raise the bar and push things forward!
