Full Version: Its Time To Start Boycotting Xxl
I'm fuckin wit The Source now. Besides the Game issue i'm tired of Shady/G-unit/Aftermath covers every fucking month. These dudes actually dedicated an issue to Shade45. This is getting outta hand. Theres so many other artist out that deserve recognition but get overlooked because they are not apart of interscope. XXL Gave Tony Yayo's album an XL All hate aside, that album was horrific to say the least. Its clear to see that this magazine is no longer credible. What kinda mag forces you to like an artist? The Source only fell off cuz Benzino made some unwise decisions and put beef ahead of business but that doesnt mean its wrong to check out his magazine. Thats the only Mag thats keeping it real. It was Eminem and 50 that said not to buy the source. I think its bout time to stop buying into what they are saying.
Ok!
I hate racist people , I dont care if its blacks hating against whites like Benzino ....its all the same
i actually buy both...along wit vibe, scratch, rhime

i did
but the dumbasses at the source just stopped sending my issues. first they started with delivering like a month late, then 2, before i knew it i would get the january issue in april or may, im not even exagerating either. wasnt i suppose to be gettin the january issue in like beginning of december or end of november, all my other mags like xxl, vibe and some others came like that. well not to make it much longer, but the story didnt end there. even tho i knew i was payed up on my subscribtion for at least another 6 issues, they stopped coming altogether, no renewal notice, NOTHING! i dont buy into what eminem or anyone says, im a grown person and make my own decisions, but thats just some real suspect shit to stop sending me a product i ALREADY paid for, never mind tryna get me to stay a customer

I actually stopped buying that magazine before the 50/EM statement! And Its not what magazine you read Its how you represent Hip Hop "Yourself"! A magazine shouldnt dictate what artist you think Is hot or not. Its just entertainment, like a Newspaper, or the News.
I buy the Source and XXL for the simple reason being, I couldnt care less about someones beef or whatever...you got news...you a medium....so im buying..PERIOD...the source started round the time i was born.... 
but anyways, i need to be aware..especially me living in Paris and they got this french edition of the source which sucks dick to say the least..but they got bangin chicks in it, thats all....so i buy the original versions of the source xxl and vibe, occasionally..plus i like readin so, you kno...n im also keen to check out the unsigned hype to see whos who and whats what...and as an mc i feel im in competiton with everyone..real mc's know what im talkin...n before buyin i flick thru...if i aint feelin it...i dont buy it SIMPLE.

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN WITH THE SOURCE BECAUSE THEY RANDOMLY SEND ME A MAGAZINE WHILE I RESUBSCRIBED AND THE MAGS THEY SENT ME WERE LIKE 2 TO 3 MONTHS OLD AND THEY ONLY SENT ME A COUPLE. SO TE SIENTO
nobody cares bout you not buyin xxl. i buy the source, xxl, and scratch. do you see me makin a topic bout it? honestly i think you n a lot of otha dudes needa stop bein so dam critical. if u made a mag n some group of artists or record label as a whole wouldnt fuck wit ur mag i bet ud be a bit biased too...
suck it up
suck it up
i've never bought the source...i've read issues of it that my brothers gotten before but i've never actually fucked with the source, i just stick with XXL, Vibe, and Scratch...i also get People but that has nothing to do with Hip Hop 
... i dont care how many times xxl puts gunit on the cover im still buying the magazine, i aint boycottin shit, i would buy the source to but when i skim through it every month it just does'nt appeal to me i guess...
