Another Bites the Dust : R.I.P VIBE Magazine




Although I thought that this was a pretty strong magazine, I guess I could see this coming. Music publications had been folding in the past few months and now, one of the biggest ones, VIBE magazine has ended publication. Starting in 1993 by Quincy Jones, VIBE magazine was like NewsWeek for some Black people. I must say, I did enjoy reading many of the articles in the magazine and seeing the colorful covers with many different black *and some white* artists on the front. I'll miss it dearly, but I guess that with everything going digital, they will be focusing more on their website. Thanks for the last sixteen years VIBE, we'll miss you dearly.
