@ the question about coverage on southern african countries either than SA, Hype does have a small
section dedicated to hip hop happenings by province, and recently other african countries as well. The fact
that they weren't doing this b4 does indicate that they're trying. Hype is still in its infancy i think, they
have a lot 2 improve on but like dplanet said, its easy for anyone to say "if it was me, i'd do it this way".
I also think sales are an important factor here too cuz mizi has to move units at the end of day,
so if a da les cover's gona help him achieve the necessary numbers thats probably a wise move. We
don't have a big enough market for 'alternative' hip hop right now, so as much as I'm for fresh ideas,
i think there's a specific demographic the mag tries to cater for.
Maybe an alternative magzine is the way 2 go for those of us who have other ideas. Sum people don't
like the mag, but if they keep moving satifactory numbers (which i a**ume they are) it means many
others are happy with wat they are getting
