Not because it has a little itty bitty mention of Garcia (which also mentions DJ EFN). Mentioning Garcia among the top 10 MC's they feel are currently breaking out of Miami, Fl.. The issue has a lot dedicated to the Florida movement and explores a-lot of the Miami / Florida hip hop scene. The press is never 100% accurate or detailed with what is going on in a particular scene and of course many things about current and historical Miami hip hop were left out. Nonetheless the magazine put together a good article and the best part of all WE ARE IN IT!!! So make sure you go support XXL Magazine, your favorite Florida artist or simple and plain, US and pick up the issue! In other news CNN is about to release their new single off their highly anticipated third album!
