Right On! and Word Up: sometimes I can't belive that I used to read these and put the posters on my wall
Sister 2 Sister: it's just fluff
O (the Oprah Magazine): her show has become an hour long psychologist session and her magazine is just one hundred pages of the same
Haper's Bazaar: it's way too intellectual for a fashion magazine
Essence and Ebony: simply because they talk about the same thing over and over and over again. It's simply not worth that twelve or thirteen dollars per year.

Ebony - third grade writing level and OUTRIGHT perpetuation of the whole light skinned/dark skinned beauty issue
Jet - see above and PLUS that whole Jet beauty thing. Ugh.
Cosmopolitan - I will browse this one at the store but would never buy it. I have yet to see anything remotely resembling umm... reality in that mag. I suppose that's not what they are selling but still ....
Source - Rap is boring

Sister 2 Sister - i've seen too many interview articles with Q: and A: Is it just laziness on their part or do they believe that some readers can't decipher between questions and answers without seeing the Q's and A's. hmmm... maybe i'm just not the intended reader!
Jet - I'm with Lovelyivy84 on the jet beauty thing... yuck!
Vibe/Source - i don't identify with anything in these

Ebony (Fluff, predictable repetitive)
Jet (Just HORRIBLE)
The Source (G-H-E-T-T-0 at it's best, no worst)
Sister 2 Sister (Fluff, horrible, their is only so much "honey", "child", or "baby" I can take during an interview.

I love Vibe and O! Please don't hate on my girl Oprah. But I agree with Honey, The Source and Sister 2 Sister. Honey lacks content but the cover always looks nice and The Source is just too vulgar. Sister 2 Sister is actually funny! It's like a black National Enquirer.

...but wait, there's more!
Along with the other titles posted above, has anyone ever heard of these magazines.
1. F.E.D.S. Magazine
It stands for "Finally every dimension of the streets"
Why though???
Did we ask for this?
2. Don Diva Magazine
It is called "the street bible".
These magazines talk about things like, what every ganster needs to know, ladies rules to catching a baller and they love to interview "gansters" straight out of jail.
My mothers co-worker loves these 2 magazines!!!
A sad but true reality.
