<p>The Source magazine and Source Entertainment Inc. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan on Friday-wow&#8230;.we never saw that one coming.<span id="more-2114"></span></p>
<p>According to court documents, the magazine once known as the &#8220;Hip-Hop Bible&#8221; is  struggling to overcome years of mismanagement. </p>
<p>The Source also converted and consolidated a previous Chapter 7 filing in Friday&#8217;s court proceedings and listed assets of about $1.3 million and liabilities of $35 million. </p>
<p><img src="http://hiphop.popcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/l-cover.jpg" alt=""  width="309" height="408"/></p>
<p>The magazine&#8217;s investors ousted founders David Mays and Raymond &#8220;Benzino&#8221; Scott from the company, when ad revenue and newsstand sales nosedived. The pair became engaged in bitter feuds with a number of rivals, like 50 Cent and Eninem.</p>
<p>The pair have since started a new magazine-Hip Hop Weekly.</p>
<p>The Source also defaulted on an $18 million loan from Textron Financial Partners, who had Benzino and David removed from the company. </p>
<p><a href="http://allhiphop.com/hiphopnews/?ID=7016">The magazine has also stopped sending copies of the pub to over 140,000 subscribers and magazine subscriptions have dropped by more than 50 percent since 2002.</a></p>
