Ultimate Questions :::: King Magazine?



King Magazine. I can not lie I loved the magazine in its prime and way up until a year ago. It seemed that this magazine was doomed to fail at some point. Right? I mean I am going to miss buffie the body, Angel with the implanted glute's, and a host of other guest cover girls who till this day make me boil, except for superhead( I cant get past the amount of it she had given). 


Since it is the illest men's magazine I want to send it off with one question. Why did this magazine lack so much? Where was the real editorial. At least Heff and the boys at maxim make an attempt to leave you with something more than a six inch boner. Lets be real I want the centerfold back but I hated paying $4.99 for something that sucked this bad. I must admit I waited for the pics to be posted online to get my fill of the centerfold, once I had it all figured out.
Would this magazine have made an impression outside of the black community, it its content were more universal? Would this magazine have lasted if it built on more than just the curves and car ads? Seriously, doesn't anyone think that the African American male, require a bit more edification than that, which King magazine offered? 

So my question is what will we do upon the return of the Black gentleman's magazine? Maybe this time around it should be a Gentleman's magazine, emphasis on gentleman. Let think for a minute that may the community deserves a little food for thought. 

Bankruptcy does not only come from poor money handling, when it comes to business. If this rag has real articles, did not repeat the women that it portrayed in the magazine, featured more than the rapper or R&B singer who appeared in other mags that month. Perhaps the substance would have been there. I am just speculating.

I don't want to say too much it is important that you think about this one. 

So again I ask! What will the new and improved Black Gentleman's magazine look like? Will it be based on the new administrations leader? Will they take initiative to offer something other than the formula that has been offered to the black man for the past 15 years? 

Here are 17 sections that should be included in the new gentleman magazine:

  1. Politics
  2. Art history
  3. How to dress on a budget
  4. How to buy the finest things for less
  5. What to eat
  6. Where to travel
  7. Short Stories
  8. Real Advice on how to make it in the new world
  9. Financial
  10. How to cook a meal
  11. Financial advice
  12. How to act when you see women 
  13. How to treat them
  14. Include College educated centerfolds or one that is a bit more than a Butt( although I do not mind her having one.)
  15. Where to eat in your city
  16. Fitness tips
  17. Getting outdoors(fight a bear, we will see how tough you are)

As a parting gift before the final issue. I will like to leave your with a set of videos to show you how much they cared about the other sections of the magazine.
