Hmmm...I'm down with the cowl that CB is wearing, but he doesn't look like he even knows what to do with himself right now. I'd have to read the interview, but I feel like the media is walking a fine line since the real issue here is domestic violence and not just one more celebrity break up.
Drake...I confess I'm not really aware of all that's happening in hip hop. I've heard that Drake is supposed to be something special, but the bit I've seen with the video of lots of women in little sports outfits... *yawn*. The look of these are cool, but I am so ready for some fresh perspectives in the substance.
When and How did VIBE come back? Oh wait, didn't Quincy say that after the sold it he hoped it would be re tooled and re launched?
With the absence of Vibe and King, I found myself reading Esquire more, and I feel to survive, thats more the direction we (Black magazine reader, publishers, etc) need to go in.
Stan, it would be nice to see this mags grow up a bit. Like Jenn said a different perspective is needed. I we certainly do/think other things. chris brown, amber rose, drake? Not hating, wish them the best and chris could stand a lil more rearing before he's unleashed on the public again, but the same goes for vibe magazine. Although if you read it a lot of the writing was well done, but the covers and blurbs were highly sensationalized and even dumbed down to sell magazine. We all can see that didn't work so well for them before.
