5 Mics, S1 EP1 - It Was All A Dream: The Untold Story of Unsigned Hype

  • Summary

  • In this brief introductory Episode 1, you will hear for the first time the true story of how The Source was started in 1988 by Dave Mays while he was a college student at Harvard University. As Mays hustled around Boston to land sponsors for his college radio show, “Street Beat,” he kept being turned down. This led to him creating a mailing list of his listeners and a newsletter providing hip-hop news and information to fans across the city. He named the newsletter The Source, which quickly grew from one page into a small magazine, with the help of fellow Harvard students Jon Shecter, Ed Young, and James Bernard.
