whats you favour urban zine and y?

IT is an open question what do you see as urban? or if you see yourself as urbanised what magazine do you read?

i always wondered that too. I swear people just label anything associaed with 'black people' as urban but some how i doubt that is the proper definition... anyone got a dictionary??????confused3

Anyway stickin 2 da question i'd say RWD mag.... its a music and fashion magazine which features da newest artists UK and US but with a prominance on da UK.

Da best thing is its Freeeeeeeee... everyone knows i love freeness

Blackbeauty can I second that request..who or what is URBAN!!!!!?

What do YOU see as Urban, since you started the thread. I need to know what/whom you are referring to before I can actually answer the questions you have put forward.

Blackbeauty I hear you on this..it seems if anyone dashes a few pieces of paper in certain people direction, they will accept any label they put on them...even call themselves ****** for the almight pound/dollar...

Check the magazine in my sig. All others that don't follow or aren't similar in the orientation that Nex Generation takes can go straight in the bin.


Listen to this:

Any form of media that portrays a black person alongside the word 'urban' just needs to be destroyed. Simple.

mmm still waiting to see if the thread starter can define what urban is

My favourite urban magazine is the City Times. All about life in a big city.

My favourite rural magazine is Farmers Weekly..

"Urban Studies is a world class journal providing an international forum for the discussion of issues in the fields of urban and regional analysis and planning. A hallmark of the journal is that it publishes leading articles from urban scholars working from within a variety of disciplines, including geography, economics, sociology and political science as well as planning and public administration.

The journal aims to provide theoretically and empirically informed analysis of the myriad changes affecting the urban and regional condition in the economically advanced nations as well as less developed economies. While contribution to academic scholarship is the mainstay of the journal, its intent is also to inform practitioners of the changing urban scene."
