Nope. It's a music magazine for Hipsters. Hipsters listen to Hip-Hop too, so of course they cover Hip-Hop too.
How many black people work for Vice/Noisey/Complex/SPIN/Rolling Stone? (UPDATE :BUZZFEED included)

man sit your fukkin ass down.sh!t like this, is why a legitimate discussion cant take place..
if you dont got anything to actually contribute to the topic, just bounce man.. nobody dont got time for all these ridiculous logical fallacies..
a legitimate discussion? this is just a bunch of fukkin lames dappin and suckin each other off because they universally agree that black ppl don't get enough input in to certain magazines/media but for some stupid fukkin reason they keep reading and talking about these same magazines.
lemme ask you something....would you go out of your way to continually go buy something you don't like(say.....coke...or pepsi) just so you can complain about how much you don't like coke or pepsi?
These magazines are made by white ppl, predominantly for.....wait for it......white ppl.
who fukkin cares what they think?
this is where alot of yall are confused.. Complex, started as a fashion magazine.. then, they slowly got into the entertainment side..
why people are acting "shocked" at how that publication ended up being, you have to look at the owner.. Marck Echo is a known culture-vulture.. hell.. good portion of his logos, he took from someone else..
@The HONORABLE SKJ these dudes really dont know half of it.. not to mention, when everyone was bowin to Kanye in his early days.. he was guest editor at Complex for awhile..
like @Always-Right Liggins said: "real" hip hop fans supposedly loathe these magazines but use the opinion of those writers to validate their own beliefs..
thats all it really comes down to.. im not even gonna start on all these cats who swore Azaleia Banks was some pro-Black Twitter militant, even after alot of us tried to tell her about how she really is.. alot of folks just getting their wake up call..

There is no reason why The Coli couldn't do reviews.
or artist Interviews.
Or have a Youtube channel with News/stories/interviews.
We are sitting on a powerful platform.
Any of us could start a blog or youtube channel.
@1984 I understand where your coming from. But we as people need to get on our Marcus Garvey shyt and start our own
EVEN IF WE START VERY SMALL IT'S STILL A START.
I enjoy and appreciate the dialogue, but then there comes a time for action.

First question before you go taking "The Coli's" moniker and starting YouTube Channels and magazines... is this forum owned by whites?
Yall about to run out here being reactive and let history repeat itself. Who owns this site?

I wasn't suggesting someone take the Coli moniker..Sorry if I wasn't Clear.
I was saying that.
1) The Coli as an already very established internet presence COULD start to do those things .
2) ANY OF US Could start our own thing, if thats what we really wanted. ( I was mainly aiming this @1984)
I'm under the impression that the Coli is owned by a Black dude and a White Dude.
Which already puts it miles ahead of these publications imo. especially if it gives a voice to mostly black writers if it chose to do reviews and think pieces.
2 people own this site.. one White.. one Black..breh

My point is holla @ the owners before you go do something illegal... like copyright infringement or break a trivial trademark law using the coli logo
I really don't play the race game.. Sorry that question came out wrong
And please let me know how I can contribute, I'm more than willing to donate some bread!
cuz I'm trying to get ppl to see that it doesn't matter what white ppl do...they are gonna do what they do regardless. and what they do shouldn't impact you or your life like that.Jesus, what a clown..
if you so smart.. why dont you take that same mentality.. and, apply it to this thread..

These magazines are nothing.... they are just words and pictures. who cares what some white dude from Utah has to say? does it mean more because its in print?
why do we allow these things to get ppl so upset? how lame is it that it takes THIS to get ppl to wake up?
this site can be sooo much better if everyone just stopped worrying about everyone trying to hold them back or keep them down and focused on doing things for themselves.
theres a big ass donate button, under the coli logo..My point is holla @ the owners before you go do something illegal... like copyright infringement or break a trivial trademark law using the coli logo

That's pathetic...
