@Subreal , I certainly understand the potential of online blogs/magazines, especially when combined with social media.... BUT,

@NOBLE , I am wondering how the LB magazine will compete with Worldstar , Spin , Rolling Stone, The Juice, etc. ? Will the magazine be mostly reflective of live battling scene and LB activity?

How will it differentiate itself as general hip hop news if that is part of the goal.

I would be interested in writing, but I am a bit confused as to the nature of the Magazine as far as content. I have some online publications and am a fairly solid writer, but wouldn't want to write the same news that another site provides....

Sorry for all the questions. I am just wondering about the logistics and goals of the magazine.

@NOBLE , can you provide a little clearer vision for what the magazine will look like visually and as far as written content?

So far I understand the magazine will cover:

1. Hip Hop / Rap Singles & Albums (Reviews)
2. Live Battle Events
3. LB activity
4. Other Topics (THIS IS WHAT NEEDS A BIT MORE EXPLANATION)

I mean... are we talking about social justice issues like covering aspects of Black Lives Matter, etc. Personal rights legal issues? Science? Art? Just wondering.... what is acceptable beyond what we all know will be included.

P.S. I only brought up the Punk issue, because he probably would be a writer, but it seems there is some bad blood. I'm unconcerned about the Patriarch aspect.
