OK, heres the new update!
Instead of creating a whole new magazine, I'm going to start repping Xplosive out here in the NW! That way you guys can get some good NW content in a magazine that's already established!
Maybe in the future when I have the resources, i'll pick up the idea again but for now i'm going to just try and establish myself at Xplosive!
So everybody cop the next issue of Xplosive and show luv!
1!

wow that came & gone fast. just cuz a couple people disliked your cover you gave it up? i agree with what dj coma said, spend some money with a designer, like me lol. for real tho to make a magazine it takes way more than some interviews & ideas. to make anything from the ground up you've got give dedication & sacrifice. and lots of money, & more money. i think coma's idea of a mock-up mag is a good way to go, and get a good designer, im not sayin that as a sales pitch, i'd charge you too much for a whole mag, get someone in your area comin out of school with some skills. use that mock-up to get advertisements & investors. and make a business plan! no investor in their right mind will fuck with you without one. and dont give up so easily, there's gonna ba a lot more negativities than some bad comments on siccness.

Thanks for the luv girl! You hit it on the head too! I been out here in the NW since birth and I know a lot of passionate cats who been in the Hip-hop game for ten years some of em'. They all do it cause they love it! I just think that's what it should be about, and the NW got more cats like that than anywhere else cause they all know that, since they from the NW, they probly won't get too far! I just want to give folks like that a chance to shine! Somthing has to get behind the WHOLE MOVEMENT to push the scene....then everybody can start to eat a lil yadig!
I got luv for everybody who show's luv!
Thats me!
I AM HIP-HOP!
