This is because of its raw, uncut power, and its ability to introduce the newest artists and the hottest beats at hip-hop’s more organic level: the streets.

Those of us here at The Foundation Magazine think big. We have big ideas and big dreams. We have a vision for this magazine. Who it will cover and serve, and what purpose it will serve. We will build a relationship with our readers, the artists, and the industry. Like any relationship, there are bumps in the road, ups and downs. But like anything worthwhile, we are going to stick it out, and we hope you will too. We are confident that time will tell, and we are ready to show and prove.
