ABOUT THE SOURCE
There’s a good reason why The Source has dominated as the most recognizable “source” of Hip-
Hop and youth culture for the last 20 years. The Source has been the leading international voice
for the ever-evolving world of Hip-Hop music, culture and politics. It is our goal to cover every
aspect of this unique and vibrant culture - from the streets that spawn our increasingly creative
music and fashion to the power players that direct the boardrooms and make our products into
viable commodities and profitable investments.
The Source has had unparalleled achievements. Since our inception as a newsletter back in ‘88,
The Source has documented everything Hip-Hop like none other, including exclusive interviews
in print, on television and online. We have consistently extended our reach beyond the traditional
realms of media with special Source music initiatives such as the Hip-Hop Hits compilation
album; the well renowned 5 Mic music rating system; Spit 16, our unique program designed to
expose unsigned artists; as well as producing the first-ever annual awards program centered on
Hip-Hop, The Source Awards. With our eyes and ears steadily to the street, our wealth of content
speaks volumes to the double decade history of our coverage and legacy in the game, and our
readers and contributors alike are known community trendsetters and influencers.
It is this mission that continues to provide our driving force to be popular culture’s most
entertaining, complete and respected brand in Hip-Hop and youth culture. From Source Latino to
Source France and Source Japan, the influence of The Source is unrivaled in the global
presentation of Hip-Hop.
The Source’s coverage is dynamic and remains committed to our growing and diverse audience.
