No, I don't think this merits the effort put forth. It's a bad idea.

LB Magazine.
As some of you know, I've tossed this idea around before, but, this is something that Subreal are looking to begin working on an OFFICIAL letsbeef magazine, with both PDF, and POSSIBLY physical copies. We're aiming for a weekly schedule, but, that may be a bit difficult, so reasonably, at this time, I'll say monthly issues of probably 20-30 pages of material regarding the site.(The opening issues will likely be a bit smaller until we get into a nice work rhythm.) And perhaps even some off site news concerning live battling, and hip-hop culture in general. With that said, would an official letsbeef magazine be something that you are interested in?

YES. I Believe We Need To Move Away From Rap Battle Slightly And Focus On Hip-Hop In General (Underground AND Mainstream) To Attract New Users. Battling Is On The Decline But If This Website Is Re-branded Into A Hip-Hop News Outlet / Producer I Think It Can Survive. Still Keep The Battling But Start Bringing More News, Stories, Features, etc.

Agreed that it would be cool...but...This has been done before and if I'm correct, I believe it only lasted one issue.
RhetoriK and AKrid Artz were the authors and creators but, due to Inactivity it died.
If someone would 100% stick with it, it would be beneficial and I would love to participate.

I almost did this once, and have many interviews saved up. I'd love to be able to interview people, if possible.

They did a forum style mag, if I'm not mistaken, that's not what this is.

That's not what this is. Me and Rant are aiming for an actual magazine.

Social networking. I'm also going to try to get in touch with a few friends who run their own mag, about getting some of their readers interested through promotional efforts by them, and about ideas for how to go about promotion. What I'd REALLY like to do, is get some interviews with mid tier-ish live battlers. Their following may help in regards to promotion as well. But, the latter is a long term goal.
Basically, a lot of spamming on hip-hop related sites.
