The Source Magazine – March 2006 (Cam'ron Cover, Issue No. 197)
A Piece of The Source Magazine History
The March 2006 issue of The Source (Issue No. 197) crowns Cam'ron as New York's number one contender going for the crown, capturing the Dipset general at the height of his run. This is also the landmark issue the magazine famously billed as one hundred percent Benzino free, marking a turning point in its editorial direction. Inside, UGK celebrate being free at last and still trill, DMC rewrites his own history, and E-40 takes the hyphy movement nationwide, with Dem Franchise Boyz repping the originators of snap. Additional coverage spans The Boondocks, Tha Liks, Raekwon, Juvenile and a spring fashion preview, all from the magazine that called itself the bible of hip-hop music, culture and politics.
