VIBE Magazine, one of the transcendent publications of Black music and Black culture, is putting new editions in readers’ hands – literally.
VIBE announced Tuesday afternoon that the legendary magazine, which went to a web-based formula for a decade, will print new physical magazines starting next Tuesday, June 2.
“In a time when society has largely moved online and as things have gotten faster, louder, bigger, and more fleeting, VIBE firmly believes the artists shaping our culture deserve more than just a mere second as we scroll,” the magazine said in their announcement.
The June 2 edition will launch online, then “published as a quarterly issue – premium in paper and limited in quantity (1,000 for this first issue).”
VIBE will return to specialty newsstands and will also be available on new parent company Rolling Stone’s website for purchase.
