Since 1992, Rap Sheet has covered rap music in a streetwise, yet intelligent manner, with news, film and lifestyle content driven by artists and music. Since the publication is the only one with one hundred per cent Black ownership, coverage is also provided for African-American culture as it pertains to the art form. Rap Sheet Digital reports on the developments within the art form, and covers trends and styles in as many cities around the nation and around the world as there are artists. In 1997, James purchased the remaining interest in Rap Sheet, making it the only publication with one hundred per cent Black-owned rap music publication.
