BEYOND Beyond: Entry 45 "READIN' DECIBELS"



READIN' DECIBELS MAGAZINE 2010


This is a mock cover I've been working on. For what? for a goddamn start up magazine concept this coming 2010. All bets are against it, as no hiphop magazine which catered to the Asian market ever garnered a successful first 3 months. Soulsonic, which is now a blog, started as a newsletter; PULP Flava didn't last at all -- and HTowns HYPE Magazine concept still hasn't seen the light of day.

IMAGINE is the most powerful word in the UNIVERSE.

Imagine RD Magazine which stands for READIN' DECIBELS catering to the urban playground in Asia. Imagine a start up magazine based in Singapore, that will initially be distributed in PHILS, JAPAN, KOREA, SINGAPORE & MALAYSIA. Imagine a magazine who will give you insights on Japans hiphop history, Korea's hiphop selling out concerts, Taiwans club scene, graf scene; also documents what artists like Slaughterhouse think of tracks by QYORK and mroe. Imagine a magazine like this, it sounds hella fun to do -- but its a lot of hardwork.

People have been pushing me to start up a magazine due to the wonderful job I've done with my blog and guess what I'm still enjoying this blogging thing. Thank you for all the readers but yeah, only time will tell I guess.
