Ray Benzino & The Source act as ONE, Benzino has ZERO skill
Sign Now
By signing this petition you are agreeing that Ray 'The 5 Mic Giver' Benzino is the worst rapper ever hold the mic. You agree that The Source Magazine is nothing but a tool for Ray Benzino and David Mays to promote their weak projects (RSO, Made Men, Ray-Ray). You also agree to no longer purchase/read The Source Magazine due to their latest stunts lacing the magazine with Benzino propaganda (Poster, The Last Word, Hip-Hop Quotable, 4 page promotion & article). You also sign and agree that the 5-Mic rating holds absolutely no credibility.
The Source editor Gotti says "Benzino and The Source are not interchangeable. The Source has always made it a point to keep Benzino's music career and the magazine business from interfering with each other."
Here is a comprehensive list of how The Source and Benzino's career are one in the same:
1994 - David Mays goes behind the back of the Source editors and inserts a three-page story on The Almighty RSO.
1999 - Made Men's video, "Just You and I" receives Source Award nomination for Video Of The Year. The rarely seen video is competing against, Busta Rhymes & Janet Jackson "What's It Gonna Be."
1999 - Selwyn Hinds, former editor-in chief of The Source resigns after David Mays changed the mic rating of Made Men's debut album from a 3.5 to a 4.5 mic rating.
1999 - Made Men receives Hip-Hop Quotable of the Month, and a position in both the Singles File and the Heavy Rotation.
2000 - The Source Presents: Hip Hop Hits, Vol. 4 includes Holla Back (Holla Boston) by Benzino.
2000 - Virtually unknown, Benzino performs at The Source Awards in Miami.
2000 - David Mays is interview by Detail magazine. In this article he is quoted for celebrating the departure of his former editors and business partners.
2001 - The Source Hip Hop Hits Vol. 5 includes Bang Ta Dis by Benzino.
2002 - The Source Hip Hop Hits Vol. 6 includes Bootee by Benzino.
2002 - Benzino receives Hip-Hop Quotable Of The Month for his dis to Eminem, Die Another Day and a 5 page article.

Due to the lack of business ethics, I'm no longer a fan of the former "realest hip hop coverage magazine", and will no longer purchase this uncredible mag for the latest hip hop news.

Benzino is the bane of boston. He's the reason hip hop has no pulse in this town. THE SOURCE IS A JOKE, Period.

The Source was my bible, but this turn of events has caused me to believe that The Source is the epitome of raping and sodomizing hip-hop culture with fakeness and gimmickery. Dave Mays & Co. shall never see my money ever again.
