Shook Magazine
I’m Just going to copy their promo talk. I’m going to order my copy for sure. Looks dope both layout as content-wise. Preview here.
a brand new publication inspired by the five elements, the four noble truths, three - the magic number, forever two stepping (never half) but still always on the 1.
get your copy of issue 1 before they hit the shops. featuring too much good stuff - from a look at the burgeoning hip hop scene in detroit feat. denaun porter, guilty simpson, invincible and black milk. an exclusive interview with the original king of diggin’ - dj muro. we track down elusive french street artist invader. new BBE signing robert strauss gets personal with leroy burgess. we get into the studio with benga, master of the 26 basslines. and take a look at the sound of uk bhangra through its cover art, and revisit the New York downtown scene through the photography of paula court.
there’s also interviews with arthur verocai, simphiwe dana, the mighty jeddo, yukimi nagano, jay electronica, christian prommer, paul white & interactivo.
plus columns from benji b, WE ARE, heatwave, and all the usual reviews, travel, longplayers, charts… get shook!

Just received my copy today. It’s a perfect mixture of SNC and Wax Poetics. Let’s hope they have a lot of positive response so that they can continue !!!

Got mine on Friday. Wasn’t home so only discovered it Saturday evening. It’s a bloody genius mag. Even better than SNC if you ask me. Even more my style of music and arts. Love it and reading every damn letter of it.

thanks for the nice comment … haven’t really checked your music since Rhodesmode to be fair but the Woodland Conclave is sounding good
