Hitting Newsstands Next Week: The January 2010 Relaunch Issue Of King Magazine = The Champagne Of Sticky Pages Has Returned!







"KING magazine is back! The “Illest Men’s Magazine Ever” is officially relaunching right on time for the holiday season.

This incarnation, newly christened The Women of KING, has undergone a few changes. To whet the appetite of the brand’s devoted fans, the magazine will be released four times a year. More importantly, like the new title suggests, The Women of KING will focus on the beautiful women that populate hip-hop’s biggest videos as well as the entertainment and modeling industry, as it did before.

Take the premiere issue, for starters, with XXL’s Eye Candy of the Year, Rosa Acosta, gracing the cover. Not only is the Dominican dime sexing up the pages, but video vixens such as Shakur, Bria Myles, Briana Loyd and Sasha Del Valle are scorching 82-pages worth of pictorials.

In addition to the visuals, the collector's issue also gives praise to some of KING’s biggest stories over its eight-year history, including must-reads on Jay-Z, Diddy, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, T.I., Dave Chappelle and President Barack Obama.

The Women of King's Winter 2010 issue hits shelves on December 24, ladies, now you know what to get your guy for Christmas. —XXL Staff"

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Rarely, if ever, would I open a days proceedings with a T&A post. I mean, Y.O.U. don't eat dessert before dinner, do Y.O.U.? Ok, maybe Y.O.U. do, Y.O.U. magnificently fat fuck! However, for those of us whom posses a shred of self discipline, sweets before nutrient rich eats sounds quite absurd, if not just flat out wrong. What would mother say?

In any event, that being the case, fear not my loyal Livestyle community, in the spirit of the Holidays I have approved this entry brimming with buxom beauties and curiously curved cuties (Hey! Hydrogel injections are running rampant in the game, transforming beat up baby mommas whom would otherwise be damned to hole-in-the-wall strip club oblivion into eye candy-dates for African America's Next Top Urban "Model" ... lol. Sad, but, true.) for 1 very special reason: King Magazine is back!

Touting themselves as "The Illest Men's Magazine" the curators of cool @ King Magazine buckled under the crushing weight of the new media behemoth that threatens the entire print publishing world and folded a few months back with a whimper and a Tahiry Jose cover story. It was a sad day for us all.

Fast forward and, today, King Magazine has regrouped and relaunched as "The Women Of King Magazine" and has enlisted the much appreciated ASSistance of some of the top video vixens in this fickle game. The cover girl captain of this all star wet dream fantasy team is the always flexibly fun Rosa Acosta - no complaints here. Additionally, coming off of the bench you've got the titillating talents of P.Y.T. Sasha "Barely-Legal-But-Still-Legal" Del Valle and Bria "Chocolate Thunder" Myles along with some other b-a-d ass rookies with all of the right cookies. LOL. Now, while I am no doubt impressed by the quality AND the quantity of the pootang that King Magazine has assembled for the introduction of their 2.0 platform, I've gotta wonder if these niggas can keep this pussy parade poppin'. I mean, even as a quarterly, how many official video vixens are there worthy of some headline time? Really? We'll see where this goes.

Special Message To The Editors Of King Magazine: If Y.O.U. start giving covers to the likes of Pebblez Da "Damn-That-Ass-Is-So-Fake-Yet-I-Can't-Seem-To-Stop-Looking-@-It" Model (Note: I take no pride in writing her name that way), Y.O.U. will become Straight Stuntin' Magazine and NOBODY wants that. Furthermore, like any magazine still sitting on the increasingly empty newsstand these days, King has to offer readers feature articles of substance that don't have such a short shelf life. I don't want to pick up this issue next week and read about Jay-Z hitting 50 Cent with the good ole "1 shot. 1 kill." during his acceptance speech @ the A.merican M.usic A.wards ... that scoop is sooooooooooooo last month. The internet will beat Y.O.U. to that punch everytime my nigga. So what yall gonna do? The streets and the Tweets is watching ... lol. Need some help? Holla @ ya boy in BK!
