Comment: I applaud anyone who takes the effort to put their projects out but here's my question: Why aren't we (Black folk, the creators of Hip Hop) the ones to tell and disseminate the culture? If you look, most of the books out on the history on hip hop aren't written by us. The big companies own our vehicles for the message. I don't know. Just curious.

Comment: Who exactly is this hip-hop community, Dave Mays? Oh, I know. The predominantly Caucasian fanbase that buys most of the (c)rap music albums. Hip-hop doesn't belong to any one group of people. Music in general is universal. It transcends race, nationality, ethnicity, etc. It belongs to everybody. Culture (music, language, etc.) is never exclusive to one group of humans. It will go to other places, voluntarily or involuntarily, and it's usually done through the media and immigration.

Comment: Well Source Magazine did have a member of the HipHop community by the name of Benzino but B had is own agenda that conflicted with the purpose of the magazine. He seemed to be more foucused on playing down certain artist that in his mind were not as good as him and shouldn't get coverage from the Source.
