The VIBE Media Group, started in 1993 by Quincy Jones, is the publishers of the award winning VIBE magazine. They are an “urban and music culture” based magazine known for their attractive talented artists featured on their magazine covers.
This media group is also responsible for VIBE VIXEN, VIBE.com, Comcast’s Video-on-Demand channel, the VIBE Awards and last but not least their wireless content service mVibe.
Their prized Editor-in-Chief is Danyel Smith. She has been with VIBE since its beginnings in 1993. She began as their music editor and in 1996 after receiving a National Arts Journalism Program fellowship, was selected as their Editor-in-Chief for VIBE, VIBE VIXEN and the website. She left in 1999 only to return back in 2006 where she remains to this day.
Recently VIBE magazine has been in the spotlight for some recent happenings with an artist on their cover!
Ciara is the featured artist for VIBE’s October 2008 cover. There was controversy when it was said that the pictures were not approved by Ciara and she appeared to be made looking nude with photoshop.
