Mass Appeal R.I.P : Another magz bites the dust!

Another of my favorite reasons to still go to newsstands just thru in the towel as far a print goes. Not to worry Mass Appeal will keep the dopeness coming with the on-line PDF version each month.
Blogs have made the act of reading a periodical a thing of the past with all the up to the minute news of
break-ups and make-ups, cars and sneaks.

Lifted from the Gawker
Adrian Moeller, publisher of Mass Appeal magazine, emails us to confirm that the hip hop lifestyle mag is in fact shutting down, as we reported yesterday: “After 12 years of publishing Mass Appeal Magazine we’ve decided to call it quits on the print edition,” he writes “We’re putting our resources into our faster growing properties, Missbehave Magazine and Colossal Media. We’re in talks to sell Mass Appeal, and it may resume publishing in the future. We’ll continue the website and special event productions.” So, not as bad as a sharp stick in the eye

Not too many left to buy off newsstands these days. Still cop Juxtapose, Wax Poetic, Intersection, Nylon Guys , Dwell, Shook, Complex from time to time.

What magazines keep you going to newsstands or do you subscribe to?

It’s kinda bugged to call it man… if you aint got enough space in ya crib to hold em all… you could easily find yourself not checkin’ for new mags. I have to subscribe to shit because of my location. I had one with Scratch Magazine… and now they’ve thrown in the towel. The only one i still subscribe to is Future Music Magazine… and at $120 per year, i aint got much left over to shell on other shit! R.I.P. Mass Appeal… that joint was fresh fo’ sho!
