I'm not talking about the current state of these magazines...I'm not even sure if they still exist in print form...But If you are in my age bracket this was how you kept up with hip hop. There was no social media to tell us everything about artists..We had to learn it from The Source, XXL, Blaze, Rap Pages, Murder Dog, etc...

Those were the days. I still have a huge box of Source/XXL's in the basement from 99-06...Honestly surprised i was still copping mags in 06 but i was. the game wasnt 100% on the internet yet at that point.

This thread is to celebrate the best and worst times from all of these publications :wow:

Sorry in advance for Image size...dem scans gotta be readable.

True I was more into The Source in the late 90s...by the 2000's Source was kinda booty and XXL started to thicken up... fast forward to a few years ago and i copped an XXL(2011 i think) and that shyt was thin as fukk...during the Aftermath era them shyts looked like 300 pages deep

some more shyt i took flicks of..
