The Source Magazine – August 2002 (Eve Cover, Issue No. 155)

A Piece of The Source Magazine History

Eve covers the August 2002 issue of The Source (Issue No. 155), tracing her path from Philly to Hollywood and asking whether she has the range to back it up. The issue wonders whether Eminem can hold his breath for five mics, catches Alicia Keys keeping it gully with five Grammys, and presses Swizz Beatz on whether he is still Ruff Rydin or flying solo. Lil' Kim is back in the studio, R. Kelly faces his charges, and Murder Inc.'s ladies and Cash Money's newest baby round out the issue. A defining early-2000s edition from the magazine of hip-hop music, culture and politics.
