Yes, we all know Dave was white.. most of his staff, was black or hispanic.. including the Senior Editor.

Complex, Mass Appeal etc. they have a 95% white staff.....

OK then, that was the only point I was trying to make.

Of course not. We already have a long history of doing so. They guy was trying to say the Source was some Black founded shyt compared to MS, Complex, etc. when like them it was also founded by a white person. I mentioned Vibe was founded by a Black guy and so far crickets. lol

That was before Mass Appeal. This is Mass Appeal.

Mass Appeal has been around since 1999.
Used to be a strictly graffiti magazine that reviewed hip hop 12"s.

mass appeal always came off as a white ran label, they attracted the nu wave dust heads which are predominantly white

I meant that the pic was taken before Nas invested. And they've been around since 96.

Hyping black thugs?

Come on Deezy

More like telling you what's really going on... And the REAL consequences of the streets.

Yes it needs help with the editing granted the stories are dope and the insight is real as it gets without glorifying the obvious.

Stand up men behind that magazine breh

We could actually say what's up to kev and he'll reciprocate unlike them other publications.

Ok... cool

Honestly, Nas would need to have that talk wit Peter. Nas probably real off hands wit Mass Appeal on a whole.
