So this is it, huh? This is how Vibe is going out? With all the happenings in hip hop, THIS is how Vibe bows out? Hmmmmm. DELETE. 

Vibe! Come on! You used to be tasteful, hip, and innovative. You were a class act in the urban magazine genre. You had flavor! And you leave us with the chubby R. Kelly wannabe and his can’t catch a hit girlfriend for a damn final cover? 

Ok so maybe when the cover went to print, you didn’t know the magazine was gonna close. Wait, what? What do you say, oh the cover won’t be released on newstands? What! Michael Jackson, the fucking King of modern music, just died. U SHOULD HAVE PUT MJ ON THE COVER!! 

I hope Quincy Jones saves you, Vibe. He’s up in age but he’s savvy enough to know that you have the potential to survive online. ‘Cause I can’t stand to see you go out like this.

    Call me “behind-the-times” but who are those two on the cover?’

    I was really shocked initially to hear that VIBE was going out of business though. I heard it’s partly to do with the fact that someone’s always trying to shoot someone at the awards shows… I forgot all about those days, lol. I’ll never forget the piles of VIBE magazines that came to my college apartment from a past roommate who never ended her subscription… never forget the endless class projects I’d use them for… *sigh* farewell… *tear*

    Lol, it’s so funny you reply in that way, but that’s the exact reason I’m peeved at those 2 being on the cover. Vibe was like The Rolling Stone for hip hop, and it went out like a sucker. I wish it had bowed out gracefully, it’s like everyone came to work and the locks were changed or something. I was shocked that it was going out of biz too, I thought it would survive online. I hope print mags make a comeback, coz I can’t take my laptop on the beach or to the commode, ya know?
