I have the actual magazine. lol. My collection is LARGE. The only person I really can't fukk with online is Rapzines because that mf literally has everything. But I go back to the late 80s with a lot of shyt from Beatdown, ego trip, source(every issue from 90-2005), XXL(all issues from beginning to about 2005), vibe(first 13 or 14 years or so), word up, rap masters, elemental, scratch, blaze, rap pages, etc... I'm only missing one VIBE magazine to complete my shyt and I had that one , but lost it in a house fire.

Same, bro.

Still have every Source from December '92 to July 2010. I still have all of my Blaze, Ego Trip, Rap Pages, XXL's and Stress magazines from the 90's. And I kept a lot of the good Vibe's from back then too. I even did every Scratch magazine, and mad KING's too, lol. That was the best time for reading up on Hip Hop. I can never throw these away. Those were the days.

Facts lol

It was our internet

Other than word of mouth and going to Tower Records, Sun Coast and mom and pop record stores, magazines kept us in tune with upcoming albums

I had EVERY issue but lost 90% of those in a water damage incident. Fire and Water. Life’s not fair. Lost about 10% of my boxing mags in water damage but I still have my entire Slam collection dating back to 1st.

Both you and @Awesome Wells were thinking when making sure to preserve your magazine collection

I was just telling my sister the the other day, I wish i would’ve kept my VHS tapes of old interviews I had recorded from back in the day when artists were on BET, Vh1 and MTV

Old episodes of the Howard Stern Show


Man we ain’t know how good we had it back then
