LOS ANGELES, CA, December 17, 2008
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Today, Moxie Street Media (www.moxiestreet.com) launches their December 2008 Blackout Issue. The issue will debut 10 different covers featuring some of music's biggest names that created bigger news in 2008 from Young Jeezy to Beyonce. The Blackout issue includes interviews, articles and profiles with artists and literary gurus from Common to Kevin Powell formerly of Vibe Magazine.
"Hip Hop as a global art form, culture, lifestyle, and industry, extends across genres, races, age groups, continents and generations," states Tone Swep, Executive Producer of Moxie Street Media. "Hip Hop is the neck-tie adding color and class to all of these things, making them more suitable. The 10 different covers are our way of acknowledging that Hip Hop is too broad a vehicle to fit neatly in one parking space."
The Moxie Street vehicle continues to drive home the mission statement of art and activism with the latest issue. With web traffic increases of 1.6 million viewers per month and page views up by 21%, the global awareness publication which focuses on issues such as teen illiteracy, the HIV epidemic and global poverty has struck a chord with its targeted audience.
"Best put, Moxie Street is a mindset magazine," says Co-Executive Producer, Cam Swazey. "It's not overbearing or over-analytical but it exposes the intellectual side of Hip-Hop and music culture. The media portrays Hip Hop as this irresponsible and irreverent entity, but Moxie Street portrays the contrary; its heart and soul."
With combined efforts from platinum selling artists and notable non-profit organizations, Moxie Street Media continues to elevate and educate minds on overlooked issues that dramatically affect our world every day through digital media. New features added to the site include a new site design, a store offering specialized marketing products and consulting services, and re-directs to organizations such as (RED) and One where readers can learn how they can contribute to universal change. Get ready for lights, camera, activism!
