Since the announcement of the closing of Vibe magazine on Tuesday, which he dounded, Quincy Jones has been vying to save the hip-hop and R&B publication he started in 1993.
“I’m trying to buy my magazine back now. They just messed my magazine all up, but I├óΓé¼Γäóm gonna get it back,” said Jones of Wicks Media Group, who purchased ownership rights in 2006.
Quincy plans to take the mag online, because it is more profitable than print.
“We gotta get into the 21st century you know,” said the music mogul. “Print and all that stuff is over, we gotta remember that. They’re over the same way as the record business. We have got to get into this century.”
You tell ’em!!!!!
