Dave Mays is really stretching the boundaries of Hip-Hop too far. In an article at Media Week, the co-owner of The Source said:
"For anyone who's 18 to 34, almost everything they do is determined by hip-hop, from what airline they fly to what food they eat..."
Now I may not want to use the airline that Aaliyah used, but I damn sure ain't flying based on what airline Memphis Bleek is using.
SOHH, you tell me, what airlines have you flown because of Hip-Hop?

LOL. Folks be taking the importance of hip-hop to far!
HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT AALIYAH'S MEMORY! YOU'RE JUST HATIN PROBLY CUZ YOU CANT SING! LEARN TO SING AND STOP HATIN!
AALIYAH WE MISS YOU, MA! TWEET IS OK BUT WE'LL NEVER FORGET YOU!
haha!
I'm just joking! I wanted to say it before someone else does.
dave mays is fuckin stupid. i mean hip hop is really big in my life but i dont fuckin depend on it or look to it for everything i do. i mean if kes-one wipes his ass with charmin doesnt mean imma run to the fuckin store and buy a fuckin roll of charmin to wipe my ass.fuck dave mays
who the fuck is dave mays? does anyone even read the source anymore?
Yeah, that's true. I don't think anyone even fucks with the source now a days.
The Source made a big mistake by putting their personal feelings in the Magazine! To be a true Hip-Hop magazine you have to just report the stories. The Source was on some b*tch sh*t! One way they could get out of this mess is to change the Magazine. Put more Independent Labels and Artist in the Mag and take it to the streets!
All you haters need to stop and just respect what every rapper has to say. if it wasn't for the nicest emcees out there, there wouldn't be albums or magazines to buy.
Dave Mays is one of the founders of the Source, not an artist. He's still a bum for sending the mag into bankrupcy over benzino's temper tantrum that he's irrelevant. Everyone knows u dont drop the same MONTH eminem and expect to sell. i aint dick riding but i have every source since 96 and this is bullshit. fuck dave mays and benzino!
Well hiphop influencing everything,coz hiphop is not something external its internal in every one of us.it was a suppresed quality in a human being.the ability to think independently and all that shit,dave mays cant speak for hiphop but give the man props amean b4 this eminem shit this man made this culture palatable to places you wouldnt even know,so yeah he an asshole but cant deny what he did.
I was born inteligent but education ruined me....
