As the first female editor-in-chief of <i>The Source</i>, she had come up.</b> <p/>From her corner office, Kim got the goods on hip-hop's hottest names: Jay-Z, Nas, 50 Cent, Lil' Kim. She developed close--sometimes intimate--relationships with the artists she exposed to the public. But <i>The Source</i> couldn't hide its own dirty laundry for long. <p/> Behind the scenes, the magazine's volatile owners puppeteered every issue--even coveted honors like the 5-mic album rating and the Power 30 list of industry heavy-hitters. Then <i>The Source</i> declared war on Eminem and began the notorious assault that would send the magazine into swift decline. <p/>In a culture dominated by men, Kim rose to the top, and after years in the magazine's pressure cooker, she hit send on a two-sentence e-mail that would thrust her from the sidelines of the scandalous world she reported on to the center of one of the most explosive scandals in hip-hop history. <i>Straight From the Source</i> is the Book of Kim, the tell-all memoir only she could write about her influential years at the Bible of Hip-Hop.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Kim Osorio, a native of the Bronx, New York, was the first female editor-in-chief of <i>The Source</i> magazine. She led the publication to some of its highest-selling issues ever before suing for sexual harassment. She lives in New Jersey.
