Quincy Jones is not happy about the downfall of VIBE Magazine. He started the magazine (which even branched into a late nite talk show) years ago. In a statement to EbonyJet.com yesterday that he plansto get his magazine back and keep it alive. He says “They just messed my magazine all up, but I’m gonna get it back. You better believe it, I’ma take it online because print and all that stuff is over, we gotta remember that. The Chicago Tribune, The Seattle Post Intelligencer. The Miami Herald. They’re over the same way as the record business.” Hmm, I’m not to sure about having it as an online magazine either, because the highlight of every issue was the cover ….We’ll see what happens though.
