If you were to publish an urban magazine what would you want to see in it?  Should it be national or local in scope?  What format would you use?

 

Cleveland is one of the few large cities that does not have a true urban magazine.  It use to have Urban Dialect, but that is no longer around.  Do other cities in Ohio have a true urban magazine?

Can you be a bit more specific with your question?  The idea is interesting, but I'm not sure exactly what you envisioning.  How about some examples of other cities urban magazines.

 

Thanks.

what is an 'urban' magazine?  there are so many different aspects to Cleveland's 'urban' that I am not sure what you have in mind.

This is one in Cincinnati

I hate the layout of the website but I think the content is fairly intact.

The print publication is tabloid style on newsprint.

Isnt that like free times or scene magazine?
