yes,i am serious

ok,so what's good about it?
-the interviews?
-the reviews?
-other things? (like the graffiti part)

all of the above. it gave a different view of Hip Hop from the other mainstream magazines like The Source and XXL. you may not have agreed with some of their reviews, but they're a different audience and, of course, have their own opinions.

Damn thats a real shame, its the only mag i was still getting. Gave up on source years back and xxl when they changed the editors.

Hip hop connectioin always gave an alternative view and was packed with interviews unlike xxl and the source.

Thought things were strange when the editorial last month was talking about a change of direction.

Did anyone buy the death row a few issues back, unfortunatly i missed it.
