A Piece of Vibe Magazine History

Inside, the R&B Travelers package checks in with Mya, Joe, Avant, and Kelly Price, Walter Mosley weighs in on the X-Men, Shaft returns to the screen, and a hard-hitting feature examines police brutality as hip-hop’s quiet riot. Wyclef Jean, dead prez, Rockwilder, and Beenie Man round out the issue. A vibrant snapshot of millennial hip-hop and R&B from Vibe, the magazine that chronicled the soul and swagger of the culture.
