The Recession strikes Again: Vibe Mag goes under

Vibe magazine is no more. According to several online sources, the urban music/hip-hop magazine founded by Quincy Jones in 1993 is shutting it's doors. This saddens me. It hurts to see another one of my beloved addictions go away. I can remember hiding my Vibe from my mom, when I was 16. I remember the infamous Lil' Kim cover. Vibe was once a great source of Urban insight. Sadly, another outlet for urban youth has passed on. A few of my favorite Vibe covers from the past are below. Enjoy.
