Average Rating: 
Rating: - Lost its vibe years ago, but it's still worth reading
Frankly, as another reviewer said, the magazine was doper (and larger in size, I might add) back in the early '90's. And ever since I read this, I noticed a few things: they hate MTV, they love BET, they hate Nas and his affiliates, they LOVE Jay-Z. The real reason to run and buy this magazine is for the "20 Questions", but back in the '90s all of the questions were funny. Now, only one or two of them are funny while the rest don't even make sense. Not to mention that they only put artists on the cover who went multiplatinum (i.e., Jay-Z never made the cover until 1998). But I still read the magazine for its START section that interviews up-and-coming acts and for the fact that it distances itself from other urban magazines by featuring non-hiphop artists like No Doubt and Lenny Kravitz. The Revolution sections are okay, but truthfully, their reviewers dislike anything that isn't Jay-Z, Dr. Dre, or Mary J. Blige.
Rating: - A decent staple of urban culture.
Within its few years since inception, Vibe magazine has grown to be a staple in urban/hip-hop culture. To its credit, Vibe covers considerable ground: r&b, neo soul, hip hop and reggae. Its focus is music, but it also reaches out to cinema, current events, sports, and television. Apparently, Vibe isn't afraid to push the envelope and tackle non-mainstream issues: they even did an article on hip hop culture in the Black gay community, which ended up being one of the very best articles the magazine has published. While Vibe is often guilty of hyping "hot" artists that are of dubious quality (Ashanti, Destiny's Child, etc), they also feature articles on talented artists that have yet to make it big. Overall, this magazine comes with my stamp of approval.
Rating: - Highly entertaining!!
Vibe is the reason I read magazines! I have been a fan of Vibe since the first issue in 1993 and have been hooked ever since. It's insightful, refreshing, exciting and interesting all wrapped into one. In one article, Outkast's {who is one of my favorite rap groups}album was described as "more crunk with funk than 50 skunks in a trunk"! With interviews with top celebrities in fashion, music, and movies, Vibe is your one stop shop for all your latest entertainment needs. I love the often humor-filled, reader-written "20 Questions" along with the a spotlight on the up and coming acts. I even bought the tribute book by Vibe on Tupac Shakur. I highly recommend this magazine for anyone who loves any and every genre of music.
