Lengthy but a good read. Vibe had some of the best groundbreaking covers. Post your favorite.

Their cover with Aaliyah after she died is like my fav pic of her. :stressed:
I don?t know why they didn?t use that one instead of that cartoon one when she was alive.
This article is interesting
Quincy Jones stopping Madonna from having an early mag cover because she?s white
R Kelly willingly doing the cover of the issue about him marrying Aaliyah
