The Inside of My Brain

Website review: bittervibes.blogspot.com

My own life is too filled with drama to really invest in someone else’s thoughts. Despite this, I find one particular blog on in the world-wide web to be of interest: Bittervibes. The sites big draw is that it’s written by person who is connected to Vibe Magazine, one of the largest heavyweights in Hip-Hop journalism. What this individual writes about on the blog explains how hip-hop, especially at Vibe, is being poorly reported and promoted.

I can imagine people even at the magazine would like to silence this person, but I personally don’t think there’s even a point. Vibe itself, along with The Source, has been a picture book for the last several years without saying anything of real importance. Most of its readers have said the same thing and subscriptions have begun to sink of the past few years. All the writer of BitterVibes does is share that same insight with an industry twist.

With only so much to talk about in regards to Vibe Magazine, the writer of the blog goes on to talk about other magazines and other industry news that’s happening. The funny part is that I can see a movie or series being made based on the experiences of this one person -- It could even be more important than the book of Superhead.
