The Source Defends 'G-Unot' Issue, 50's Manager Chris Lighty

[AspirinE]

The recently released November issue of The Source features a sensational cover story on 50 Cent and G-Unit with the headline "G-Unot! Is Corporate Rap's Top Unit Fading Fast?"

Although insiders have speculated that the article is fueled by a feud with Interscope Records, 50 Cent & his G-Unit crew, The Source's Editor-In-Chief Dasun Allah said the notion is untrue.

"We are functioning as what a journalistic structure and organization is supposed to do," Allah told AllHipHop.com. "We are supposed to be the watchdogs of the industries in our culture that exploit and live from our culture--as has been the traditional role of the press."

Allah said the issue is simply a look at the state of Hip-Hop, with G-Unit as the center point.

"It was an analysis; the G-Unit thing was an analysis," Allah told AllHipHop.com.
