Don’t call it a comeback?

I'm down for good music for a good cause but this ain't the case. The homie Sha from MTV hit me with a question yesterday I dreaded goin' on the record about: How do I feel about hip-hop artists being included in the "We Are The World" remake? Geez, I guess we've come long way since 1985. I don't think you could do it any other way than include our culture which is the pulse of pop culture. But instead of feeling any type of validation, I feel disgust. Seriously, a complete remake of the original song? Celine Dion gettin' her Cyndi Lauper on? Lil Wayne as Bob Dylan? Fuck outta here. Didn't I see Will.I.Am in the flicks? They could gave that nigga an hour plus a pen and a pad and I'm sure he'd come up with something cheesy for no small fee but for free. I'm truly scared to hear what the final product is gonna sound like. Are we really gonna hear the soothing vocals of Nipsey Hussle in the final mix? Highly doubt it. Damn, it's the thought that counts but this just doesn't feel right. Shame on a couple of legendary nuhs named Lionel Richie and Quincy Jones. MJ is turning over in his oxygen tank.
You know you done fucked up, don't you? You know it, don't you? You know you done fucked up.
SO WHAT?!!! AS LONG AS THE POWERS THAT BE SAID ITS OK AND HE MAKES THE TIME UP…HATERS CAN BITE A NUT!

No, u retard. They’re relaunching the magazine.
lol.
LOL. Here’s an article from about a month or two ago:
Just when we thought there was no hope for urban publications, a company has been in the works of buying Vibe out of debt. When CapitolSource, a major debt holder, announced the shutdown of Vibe in June, it wasn’t even a mere thought that the company would recover. But a former publisher of the magazine Leonard Burnett Jr. and the owners of Uptown Magazine have reached a deal with CapitolSource to buy out the Vibe brand
Wicks Group paid about $35 million, with financing from CapitalSource, to buy Vibe in 2006. And since the magazine’s shutdown, executives close to the matter said, CapitalSource has been trying to recoup some of the unrecovered debt by accepting offers from potential buyers. It seems that those efforts have finally paid off because a deal has been reached between Uptown and its equity banker along with CapitolSource to buy back Vibe.
