The Raw Report DVD-Magazine

The Raw Report DVD-Magazine is a quarterly released DVD magazine series that focuses on the extensive culture of both mainstream and underground hip-hop, while combining key formulas of a print magazine.
"The Raw Report DVD-Magazine" was founded in early 2003 as a website entitled “Back Stage Pass”, but transformed into a DVD-magazine later the same year. "The Raw Report DVD-Magazine", claims its content is "Hip Hop in its RAWEST form!" because of the access and more realistic environment in which they capture hip-hop artist and figures. The style of the content featured on "The Raw Report" is street oriented, but professional editing makes it a strong competitor for mainstream media, especially with a more realistic approach to the hip-hop sub-culture. 
As of August 2006, The "Raw Report" had released nine full length DVDs, including a special edition catalog entitled "Platinum Plus Series" for rappers Saigon and Ludacris, and a popular DVD from Def Jam artist Young Jeezy Bad Boy Entertainment artist Yung Joc is reportedly next in line, working with "The Raw Report" for his special edition DVD. In addition to the Platinum Plus Series, "The Raw Report"' releases a quarterly volume issue, which is a collection of segments based on current music, trends, and popular events. The Volume 4 issue was released in July 2006.
