Buppie  was orginally created as a blogspot.com in the Winter of 2007 by DCBuppie. It began as a personal blog where a 20-something shared her inner thoughts of her urban professional lifestyle and shared her perspective on others. She first heard the term buppie used in 2006 in reference to her preferences and income.

Today, Buppietheblog has grown into an outlet and haven for black professionals to share opinions on various topics that affect their day-to-day living.
