The Source's review of Classic Limited Edition caused a controversy.[4][5] The magazine, at the time controlled by the owner's friend and a member of the Made Men rapper Benzino, gave Classic Limited Edition four-and-a-half out of five "mics" rating. The reviewer was later revealed to be fictitious.[4] Benzino also demanded from Selwyn Seyfu Hinds, then editor-in-chief of The Source, to publish a cover story dedicated to the Made Men. After a heated argument, Hinds refused to publish it and subsequently resigned.[6]
