The long battle over Hip-Hop Music Magazine The Source may finally be over.
The state Supreme Court ruled in favor of the magazine’s investor, Black Enterprise/Greenwich Street Corporate Growth Partners, which last month took control of the magazine from its founder David Mays and its president, Ray “Benzino” Scott.
The Source has had problems with both circulation and advertising in recent years. (Including subscriptions supposedly signed up for through their internet site which never become subscriptions as we found out when we tried to sign up)
David Mays began losing his grip on the magazine after defaulting on an $18 million loan from Textron Financial Corp. last year. The court denied Mays’ demand that he be reinstated at the magazine, citing the Greenwich Street fund’s right to take control of The Source if he defaulted on his debt. That ruling opens the door for the Greenwich Street group to buy Mr. Mays’ shares in The Source, which now belongs to Textron. “He has the right to go to trial, but it would be a moot point by the time he did, because his shares will be gone,” said Jeremy Miller, the new chief executive of The Source. The magazine remains viable, according to Jeremy Miller. Its problems stemmed from mismanagement and from Mays’ and Benzino’s feuds with artists and record labels [especially the Eminem, Interscope/Shaddyville beef] that led to a widespread loss of advertising. “We’re on a mission to win back both readers and advertisers,” Mr. Miller said. “We’re going to cover the hip-hop scene from a neutral but still hard-hitting point of view.”

Hip Hop Mixtape Volume 1
I can't begin to say enough about DJ Emir's
Hip Hop Mixtape I absolutely loved it from beginning to end.
Nothing but Banging Hip Hop Music from the CDs initial insertion
'Til all my friends were exhausted from dancing at my Frat party.
I had Ordered a set of Mixtapes from www.djemir.com
and they really came through at the party with everyone trying to weasle
a copy out of me. I did like the extra attention I got from the girls on that matter
by the way :)=)
The Mixtape CD starts with a unique intro and immediatly explodes onto
your speakers with quick little beat juggles and scratches.
It then adds some dynamic mixing throughout the rest of the CD
and makes sure that every song is a complete Club Banger.
No Boring tracks on this Mixtape.
Most Hip-Hop and Reggae Lovers will enjoy every song on this Mixtape CD
I highly recomend This Mixtape as well as the other Hip Hop Mixtapes
that can be found at www.djemir.com

Banging Hip Hop Mixtape CDs
Hip Hop Mixtapes With Mad Flavor
I was cruising the internet when I came across a website that had some
nice MP3 sample clips from several Hip Hop Mixtape CDs that were offered at the site.
As I listened to these clips I realized that I more than likely would love
the rest of the Mixtapes that the clips came from.
I decided to order the Hip-Hop Mixtape Triple pack of Mix-CDs
that was offered at djemir.com
My instinct on the mixtapes was right on point.
I listened to the first one [DJ Emir- Techniques Volume 1]
and I absolutely loved it from beginning to end.
Nothing but Banging Hip Hop Music from the CDs initial insertion
til the minute I pulled it out. The Reggae Music on the CD
was super tight as well. Including a super hard
Dancehall-Reggae remix of Ashanti's Foolish and several other
Dancehall reggae tracks. The CD also included a great
Old-School Quickmix which had everyone at my house party
wanting to steal my Mixtape CD!
I told them where to get their own copies... LOL
I thought this was it... This was now my new favorite mixtape... but then
I popped in DJ Emir's Hip Hop Mixtape Volume 2 and found that one
to be even stronger. As good as I thought the first CD was...
I was surprised to find that Volume two outdid the first CD and now
I knew that each CD would most likely impress me more and more.
I think I now know where to order all my Future Hip-Hop Mixtape CDs from!
I will provide more indepth reviews of these seperate Mixtapes in future reviews.
I also will be checking out some of his recomended websites for other mixtapes
and review them as well. It appears DJ Emir Knows whats up in the Hip Hop Industry...
I'd say DJEmir.com is the Definitive Authority of Hip Hop Mixtape Websites
