Canibus Strikes – Blaze Magazine Promo/Preview Issue (June 1998)
Yes children, there was a time when Canibus was a viable cover story. Blaze was a pretty good magazine for its time, though I remember being completely frustrated by the fact that they would blur out all the curse words.
This magazine sucked, it came out in that weird hiphop mag era of a crumbling rap pages, the bezino dynasty of 6 page spreads on the fucking made men, when a magazine like Urban Latino could put Bobbito on their covers, Equinox popped up out of the northwest, I think on the go had folded by then, everyone had special “4 element” issues, if you wanted to read about rap you had to go through some straight bullshit. I mean I would pay money for this mag then but only because rap pages had gone to shit and I didn’t want to read the source anymore.
