Beautiful post..
You said exactly as I feel...I've been here since the D.P. single, and have purchased all of his music since.
And this cd IMO don't surprise me it got that rating cause of his impressions of Biggie & Pac.until Jigga makes a full blown lp without any Biggie or Pac quotes, references or anything related to them...he will never be in their place.
All hip-hopper's should just focus on doing them and stop trying to prove how much they are fan's of B.I.G. & Makaveli....ImO
They can never be done again...Do U

HEH
Guess Jay-Z didnt get enough ads in the source in order for them to give it another mic.

Yup, 3 mics or less is almost impossible in that wack ass magazine.
My theory:
Benzino (Source-owner) --> beef with --> Eminem --> is down with --> Jay-Z --> Bad rating.
I really believe that it can be that simple.
If "Blueprint" is 5 mics, then "Gift & the Curse" is at least 4 mics, if not 4.5
By the way, their rating-system doesn't mean shit, and it's all their own fault.
They gave 5 mics to Scarface, Nas & Jay-Z, and none of them really deserved it.
And they have overlooked tons of 5-mic albums in the past.
But I guess a magazine can't help being so wack when it's owned by a dude like Benzino ::)
Twentytwofifty:
How come no one ever cries about XXL, Murder Dog or any other mag's reviews, it's always the Source?
*licks his lips waiting for someone to say it's cause their rating systems are better*
DPGC2003:
The Source has no credibility...They gave Scarface 5 mics for that wackass album Fix...I like Scarface and all but his last album had maybe 4 dope songs...The fact that Benzino owns it makes it more of a joke...Made Men 4.5 mics...LOL...
