Quincy Jones is not letting his baby – Vibe Magazine – go down without a fight. Looks like he’s going to step up to the plate and hold the struggling publication down until things get right with the economy. Pop the top for more

    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?

    I guess he started it, he can end it. Let’s see if he brings back Arsenio 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.

  • DRENK

    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

    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.

  • DayShifter

    LOL!! Let that sh*t go dog…. Does anybody still read VIBE?!?

  • DayShifter

    Oh wait, do they still sell fat gold ropes in the back ad pages?!?

    Check out Quincy. Until you do right by me, nothing good will ever come of you.

  • DDub (Right? Right.)

    Vibe meant something when Quincy owned it. He could easily instill some of that sensibility back.

  • MICHELLE

    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 class.
    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
