Legendary UK Magazine Hip-Hop Connection recently announced they are going out of print. I suppose this is a sign of the times with the rise of the internet/current economy taking its toll on print media. I grew up on this, my uncle Eddie used to send me this every month from London when I was 14 and back before the internet, the only outlets for a youngster in Wexford to hear Hip-Hop music were Westwood's show on Radio 1 and Yo MTV Raps so their review section was vital when it came to ordering (yes ordering, not that many music stores in Wexford were carrying hip-hop releases) the latest albums.
It was kind of an honour to get a full page few years back
Big Up Andy Cowan
