Straight From The Source

Remember when former editor in chief of The Source magazine, Kim Osorio, sued Source founders Dave Mays and Ray Benzino for sexual harassment and won that multi-mullion dollar settlement? Get ready to read all about it. Kim wrote a book called Straight To The Source: An Expose From The Former Editor-In-Chief Of The Hip-Hop Bible. Kim dishes all the dirty details on how Benzino would be switching covers at the last minute, re-ordering cover shoots, randomly firing employees, trading covers for beats and guest appearances on his records and how Benzio's favoring street cred over journalistic integrity lead to the magazine’s downfall. She also reveals a famous lover or two. *cough*50 and Nas*cough*
