Can you imagine receiving a glossy full color magazine with around 90 pages of underground hip hop information?  Can you also imagine not having to pay for this magazine?  Well this is exactly what Showcase magazine is all about.

Showcase is free and comes out bi-monthy and is a quality read.  It contains a lot of information about the indepedent rap scene, mostly from the Bay, NorthWest, Down South and LA.

The Feb/Mar 2003 issue contains interviews with:

• Too Short
• Goapele
• Killer Mike
• Amerie
• WC
• Prime Factorz
• Marques
• 50 Cent
• The Relativez
• DJ Envy
• Missy Elliot
• Morris Chestnut
• Devin The Dude
• Lil John and the Eastside Boyz
• Tony Touch
• The Luniz
• Ms Jade
• Baby
• Krushadelic

Now if that aint enough they have a couple of articles, reviews and even a column where you can write in and ask for industry advice which is then answered by an attorney in the following issue.

I found this magazine extremely informative and is a must have for anybody wanting to be part of the independent rap scene.  For more information on the magazine and/or advertising details please contact the editor here:  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
