has nothing to do with the economy. Vibe has sucked for the past 10 years. i’m surprised they haven’t closed down already.
Who still reads Vibe?!?!
Q, hold it down Killa.
old school in the house
let that ish go old man
He can save himself some money. ALL magazines will eventually fold. Why wait a month to read something that was on the internet the DAY it happened?
Q, let Vibe magazine slowly dissipate away it’s now a caricature of a magazine.
Q is throwing up the luciferian Baphomet hand sign- coincidence or representing?
good now maybe it will be cl*****ier
I guess he started it, he can end it. Let’s see if he brings back *****nio Hall and Keenan Ivory Wayans.

Exactly.
But all print media is going the way of the dinosaur..EXTINCT!
Between my Ipod, Phone and laptop, I have no need to purchase a magazine.
Unless it’s a collectors editions (with Barack Obama or Michael Jackson, ie) there’s no point anymore.
It’s not about the quality, all types of print media are on the way out. Newspapers have been losing tons of money because of the internet. If Q was smart he’d get out while he can and realize its only a matter of time before paper printed media is extinct
PLAIN & SIMPLE QUINCY NEEDS TO LET THAT GARBAGE ***** MAG GO. ESPECIALLY AFTER THEY DID THAT BULL***** RAP BRACKET!! VIBE HASNT BEEN GOOD SINCE THE 90′S ANYWAY!! LET IT GO Q
He should just do an MJ issue and wrap it up. I’m sure Quincy has plenty of MJ pictures we’ve never seen and lots of stories to share. Yeah, he would be profiting off MJ’s death, but hell why let whitey be the only one to do that?
Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
I subscribed to Vibe as soon as it came out, but I had to cancel my subscription. That magazine dropped it in depth and/or interesting stories and replaced them with ads.
LOL!! Let that sh*t go dog…. Does anybody still read VIBE?!?
Oh wait, do they still sell fat gold ropes in the back ad pages?!?
Vapid.
not worth it! Vibe Sucks!!
Check out Quincy. Until you do right by me, nothing good will ever come of you.
Vibe meant something when Quincy owned it. He could easily instill some of that sensibility back.
An open letter to Mr. Quincy jones from the one and only “Its6amHoGetOut”
Dear Mr. jones at one time i was an avid reader of your fine ex-publication, but then once you sold it they started putting wack ***** bama *****s on the cover like big greasy lipped PLIES! Now as a devotee to real hiphop this was blasphemy. You being one of the best producers in the world will know what I’m talking about when i say “the deep south has *****ed up rap so bad that its now on life support”
And Mr. Jones, please force VIBE to stop with that gay ***** in the last 25% of the magazine.
love 6am
6am….lmao. Dzam…I went to sleep last night and you lost over $500?! Come on now, 6..
Michael Jackson, to quote a lyric from one of your songs…I want you to know, “You are not alone.” Not anymore. I believe you are now, the angel in heaven you sought so hard to be here on earth. You were so misunderstood, vilified, and beat upon. There was so much mockery and hatred of you, for only one reason. You’re goodness; your luminosity into the beautiful heart you believed could be in every man. You had such generosity, and tried so hard to teach others, to look into the soul; and to not judge based on color, creed or cl*****.
But darkness, doesn’t like beauty to shine. It detracts so much from what it is trying to do. Create dark humanless souls of us all. To replace the radiance that was born within all of us, by God. You spoke of nothing, but love and peace. Your light through your words, and music shone so bright. You’ve brought so much too so many, but only sought pure love for yourself. Your sensitivity brought ridicule. When all you wished most of all was to be embraced and understood. You had such a creative, gentle, kind spirit.
I think what personally stood out to me most of all; was your tender nature. Envy in other people mistook that for weakness, when in reality it is strength. The force of who you were was so strong. Many people wish to have that, but could never achieve it. So they became jealous and spiteful towards your achievements.
We are all afforded different opportunities in life. Instead of being envious, they should have rejoiced with you, in your success and in your life
@ Sepia,
I didnt lose that *****, i know exactly where it is, $400 of it went for a big ***** bottle of grey goose, $75 of it went into the pocket of that big *****ied white waitress that was so nice to me, my girl, my friend and his girl and $25 went towards two trays of mini-cheeseburgers to cut all that alcohol at 4:45 am!
But i made it back today at lunch so its all good, besides its all vegas’ money anyway, ***** that!
love 6am
