What was the first issue you bought and what made you bye the issue
for me it was when XXL drop BIG on the cover of april 04
repping who is the new king of N.Y.
A ten year review on the making of READY TO DIE I want to see some one else point of view on the movment other than the source....
Full Version: Xxl 1st Issue
one wit Fat Joe on the cover with the interview about the beef between him and 50
I HAD THE VERY FRIST ISSUE WITH JAY-Z ON THE COVER.
damn i can't remember at all for shit but it was when shit wasn't cool with eminem and xxl i know. cuz the next thing he came with that "let me give ya muthafuckaz some mo shit to help ya covers to sell, here XXL XXL"
^^^^^yeah that was the issue after the big
first one i remember buying was when they had Eminem on the cover, around when that tape surfaced and all that drama with The Source..i dont remember when it was tho
first one i got was (i believe March 03) the one with 50, Eminem and Dr Dre on the cover.. 
that was may 04 i know because i got the one right after that it got naz on the cover man it seems like last year the mag had more weight to it then it does these day's shit this board is better than the mag and they don't even talk about us in the mag i think that YN elliot willison should do a piece on how everyone hold down the M.B. the shit that goes on hear is some classic shit......
co-sign i wrote xxl a few month ago and said how they should.
Earliest one i picked up that i can remember was with DMX on the cover, i think it was in 2001.
One with Luda on the cover, around the time Word Of Mouf came out.
I COPPED EVERY ISSUE 0F XXL, RAP PAGES, THE SOURCE, AND ALL THE BLAZE MAGS BEFORE THEY WENT OUT OF BIZNEZZ. XXL IS MY FAV., BUT THE OLD SOURCE MAGAZINE, WAS THE BEST WITH STAR AND BUCKWILD.
UNSIGNED HYPE LINK FOR HOLLOWMAN HOLLOWMAN VS E-NESS

I started coppin' them shits right before that Eminem statement. It was some shit goin on with XXL, like If you say "XXL" twice In your song or some shit like that cause a couple M.C.s were sayin that shit twice, I dont remember what they purpose of It was, but I cant exactly remember who was on the cover.

mannn you don't even know the half of it....us ORIGINAL vets made it like it is now, this message board (and hoodbred...extended family) should be acknowledged....ill community may have the most, davey d's maybe have the best important subjects...but i always felt that this have the best family atmosphere...or at LEAST the MOST entertainment...especially back in the day...you didn't even KNOW whut to expect
shit, we act like we KNOW jason personally, he NEED to plug into YN's ear and give us some acknowledge (even though YN must be reading these post if you been reading his editorials from time to time....it always seem like he got some sort of response from whut we be saying on here, yet he never officially acknowledge us)
..
I've been on numerous message boards and this one has that feel like we all know eachother even If we never saw or met before.

you know it's funny but i'm feeling gluv/ras/vita/the one it like we got this image of who each one is and none of us has really met each other in person but thier is some down ass pep's on this board (maybe because it feels free) other sites just have to much bullshit on them we just got the basic like kid's in the hood seems like everyone else board is on some bill gates money or shit......
