 | | Mays, who started the hip-hop magazine The Source on a photocopier 15 years ago and turned it into the top-selling rap publication, is less celebrated but just as tortured. |
 | | On Jan. 12, The Source plans to ship out 800,000 copies of a CD on which a young Eminem clumsily raps, "Black girls are dumb, and white girls are good chicks." This should be a major coup for the magazine a world-famous white rapper uttering a racist phrase yet somehow it isn't. |
 | | Ever since Mays, as an undergraduate at Harvard, founded the self-proclaimed "magazine of hip-hop music, culture and politics," ethics have been a sore spot. |
