They actually did an issue later on down the track where they went they gave The Infamous 5 mics… There were some others too. Ready To Die was one too…
I like how in 2002, The Source (with Benzino fully at the helm and in the deadsmack middle of their beef with XXL and Eminem) gave retroactive 5 mics to some albums (The Chronic, Ready To Die and Reasonable Doubt among them)
Stillmatic got 5 mics but there were a few weak tracks on there like Braveheart Party that should have been shelved. Had it been kept to 10 tracks like Illmatic it would have been 5 mics no doubt.
@@adamphillip5305 I thought so too at the time. There hadn't been a 5 mic album for 3 years at the time then the 2 biggest rappers from New York who were beefing were given them.
This is a dope trip down memory lane. Still have a couple of my old Source issues and clearly remember a lot of those Unsigned Hype issues. It was the first time I saw/heard of Capone N Nore. Me and my cousins used to talk about the ratings like "Yeah, so-and-so's album got this many mics, I might cop it". Even used to have a mail subscription for a while. Salute to Dave Mays for giving us the "Hip Hop Bible".
I got a gang of Source magazines. I got The Source with Eazy on the cover when he died. I got the Source when Dr. Dre left Death Row and when Tupac was going through his trials and tribulations when they had the cover of Tupac in a straight jacket.
This is such a brilliant interview. Really looking forward to the rest of it. These are the sorts of people you should be searching for, not bloody Mob James, Aaron Carter and other people that are on this platform for the umpteenth time saying the same old shit over and over. p.s. can't wait to hear what he thinks about Eminem's 'The Sauce', that song was killer
@@dsmentalmedicine3232 what's weird about saying nah.... also an opinion. Is saying weird the new.... I gotta comment like this cause everyone else is? Or what.
I used to go in 7/11 grab the source to see what’s new and if anyone got the legendary 5 mic’s. Pre internet we had no clue what or when a album was actually gunna drop
Eminems Albums weren’t monumentally a part of hiphop. His success was always the pop level and arena. Getting 4 mics didnt necessarily represent his ability, sales , or radio single. It was a reflection of his album based on traditional hiphop standards.
I was into the pre Benzino days of the Source they knew about everybody putting in work and networking with no use of the internet up till late 90s. In small towns & countries, the Source knew who was the illest. Shout out to Honolulu!
I remember all that. I was up on The Source(The Bible of Hip-Hop) since 90. I subscribed monthly/yearly,(still got crates of old shit) my group submitted demos, we attended award shows trying to get on in the game. The Source will always be a part of Hip Hop because it's for the people; until it became bias. I do remember that East Coast dominancy!!! Suge knight had to say something, Outkast/Andre3000 was happy to tell the whole world that The South had something to say!!
They didn’t “Discover Eminem” He was in March 1998 Source “Unsigned Hype”, but was signed by Dr Dre & Interscope (Afrermath) March 9, 1998. He was killing it in undergoing the previous year with slim shady EP, battles, wake up show freestyles, other college radio freestyles. Em won 1997 Wake Up Show Freestyler of the year! AL Skills and many other dope underground emcees told Riggs Morales (at the Source) to check out Em bc he was dope AF so he did in late 97 early 98 then it came out in March 98.
@vladtv can u ask questions about the source award 94 & 95. Have the source more video footage of that Award shows? I miss questions about badboy/Deathrow beef or behind the sceenes footage of tupac and big...?
Never had a problem with The Sources mic ratings they gave to albums,i mean how can you expect them to have it right 100% of the time,im not even trippin that The Chronic 1992 (the album that got me into hip hop) got 4 and a half,it was their opinion at the time.
The Source was like our only source of light When the mics used to mean somethin', a four was like You were the shit, now it's like the least you get Three and a half now just means you're a piece of shit Four and a half or five means you're Biggie, Jigga, Nas Or Benzino-shit, I don't even think you realize You're playin' with motherfuckers' lives I done watched Dre get fucked on The Chronic Probably 'cause I was on it Now you fucked me out of my mics twice, I let it slide I said I wouldn't hold my fuckin' breath to get a five Shit, I was right, I'da fuckin' died already tryin' I swear to God, I never lie, I bet that's why You let that bitch give me that bullshit review I sat and took it, I ain't look at the shit, we knew You'd probably try and fuck us with Obie and 50 too
@@cassidybee4785 I know right? He gets on my nerves sometimes but it ain’t the same where’s not doing the interview. Dave Mays is a legend in the industry and he’s another white guy in hip hop so I think the dynamics would have been a lot more interesting with Vlad.
I was very upset about that but it occurred to me that Vlad is giving other people a chance. Not too many people do that. I’d Prez is the best out of the alternates and I always prefer Vlad even though don’t always agree with him but I realized a couple days ago that it’s actually a really big deal that he is letting other people get the reigns and develop their talent.

I understand Vlad not interviewing Lil Flip. Cool. But, interview Dave Mayes. I feel like it would have been a more in depth interview and interaction between the two. The parallels of their background, their business, their vision and their passion, just in different eras. Obviously just my opinion, but Dave deserved a personal Vlad interview.
Definitely not here to hear Vlad interject himself into everything. Ask questions and let the guest talk. Only Nore has the validity to talk on his guest level, which he constantly does, but hey it’s Nore.
Indeed they did... Because they were really rhyming... Practicing their craft & taking it serious, taking the "art of rhyming" serious... Without knocking this era, but they wouldn't stand a chance in a cipher then or now.. (Does BET Awards still have that cipher segment right before the commercial?)...
DJ Quik dissed The Source magazine on the song by Penthouse Players Clique "PS Phuck U 2" " If you pick up The Source mag and don't see me it's because the fucking East Coast is the enemy " . Later on DJ Quik was on the cover of The Source.
Eminem: "Dre's got AK's to Dave Mays's head" "Oh... and for those that don't know... don't get it twisted... THE SOURCE HAS A WHITE OWNER--" So this is who he was talking about... after all these years, I can attach a face to those lyrics 😂😂
The Chronic,Chronic 2001and Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik originally got 4 and 1/2 🎤 . I couldn't realistically honor their opinions after snubbing these Classics.

Devin The Dude "The Dude" deserves 5 mics Three 6 Mafia "Mystic Styles", "The End", and "Chapter 2:World Domination" trilogy deserved 5 stars. Mo Thugs "Family Scriptures". Seems llike they were just on NYC's dik.. AND I'M FROM NYC!!

Wasn’t there east coast bias when it came to rating albums 🎤 🎤 🎤 🎤
Ice Cube had one of the first 5 mics albums in 1990 (Amerikkka's Most Wanted), so I don't think they were biased.
UK hip hop connection magazine launched before the sauce and was five mics better
We grew up reading ....
So many hip hop classic’s didnt get 5 mics but most of it was off of Benzino’s hate and jealousy of other rappers. He is such a clown to this day.
🙏🏻
Eminem destroyed The Sauce
Brand Nubian got one
He said that. Great album💯
Get Crip Mac on
Nas Illmatic 1st 5 mics
📿💯🕶
The sauce - eminem
Aaron was already popping. Only problem with his story.
haven't heard benzinos name once.
He's lost on the 5. I know all the 5's. I own 80% of them on CD. It was 1990(not 1991) the mic rating started
