Hi

I want to subscribe a good Hip-Hop / R&B magazine but I only know VIBE.

Can you recommend me the best Hip-Hop / R&B magazines?

Best regards

XXL or The Source

The Source is GARBAGE. The magazine lost all credibility around 4 years ago when their owner would give his group a better review than it deserved. When this happened people were wondering how such a garbage album could get such high praise, eventually he did resign but not before he ran the company into the ground.


XXL is your best choice for more well known artists. URB is for more of the indie stuff.

It used to be all about Rap Pages. I don't know if that's still the case, though.

I would definitely go with XXL, like someone said before "The Source" is complete trash....... also 'Scratch' is not bad either...

I was a longtime subscriber to the Source untill dumbass Benzino started that whole Eminem shit. I'm not even a big fan of Marshall, but it was embarassing and uncalled for to see this mag deteriorate like that.

I still love Vibe though. Its always stayed true.

A great article on The Source:
