'''ThisIsRealMusic.com''' is an online hip-hop, soul and urban alternative music discovery tool. The site hosts a collective of indie, midstream and mainstream artists from across the globe and serves as a source to learn about and listen to new and established musicians.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.trafficestimate.com/thisisrealmusic.com |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110717083731/http://www.trafficestimate.com/thisisrealmusic.com |url-status=usurped |archive-date=July 17, 2011 |title=thisisrealmusic.com Website Traffic and Information |publisher=TrafficEstimate.com |date= |accessdate=2011-12-10}}</ref> The site was originally created and programmed by its current Editor in Chief, Talib Nelson in 2006 as a music blog.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.judgespot.com/review/thisisrealmusic.com |title=Thisisrealmusic.com Reviews - Review thisisrealmusic.com |publisher=Judgespot.com |date= |accessdate=2011-12-10}}</ref> But after a new partnership with indie film producer Terrance Wilmore and a massive overhaul, it turned into a fully functioning music website with articles, music videos, blogs, a music sampler, video interviews, free downloads (legal) and video blogs created by some of the artists themselves. The website relaunched in February 2009 and has since been able to align itself among bigger more established music sites.
