Anybody know what's up with Wax Poetics. Their site is still showing the Dec / Jan issue as the new one?

Late on their light bill.

DB_Cooper · March 2008

They folded once it became apparent that rap is dead.

seriously???? no announcement or anything? and man, if they were struggling to get by, it sure seems like we're undertaking a lot of new ventures?

They recently spread themselves too thin with the record label, books n' such.
They couldn't keep it all going.
Waxpo RIP

I couldn't think of a much worse way to go. That's totally frustrating.

So that is not just a rumour? WaxPo is really no more? Will issue 27 come out? They were hitting me up to advertise only last week.

Wax Poetics.

Dickriders with pens (journalists in general).

Danno3000 · March 2008

Dustrygoove has the new issue: Always essential reading from the Wax Poetics crew -- one of those magazines we wouldn't miss for anything, and which we proudly store on our shelves as if it were a book! And sure, they upped the price a few bucks this time around, but the journal is still a total bargain -- all color, filled with great images, and packed with writing on the sorts of subjects few other music magazines ever touch! This time around, features include Build An Ark, Funky Cuba, Hot 8 Brass Band, Mighty Hannibal, Eddie Harris, Newcleus, Derf Reklaw, Chuck Brown, SOUL, and Camp Lo -- and as always, there's plenty more cool little bits too.

I just got #27 at the news stand...

I don't think they have folded, I just visited A*** at their new offices a few months ago...

peace.

Harsh! It's a terrible loss for the community, whatever exactly the community is.

What's your source for this? If this isn't true then this is a seriously fucked up thing to do.
