Sneak Peek Of New 'Wax Poetics' Documentary
It's no secret that I have major love for one of my favorite magazines, Wax Poetics. Reading each issue is kind of like knowing that there is someone else out there with just as much love for rare funk, jazz and hip hop classics as much as I do. Couple this with the fact that the writing is superb and the staff interview some artists who never really got their just due from our generation, and it's just about perfect for all you audiophiles out there. We recently got wind that there is a Wax Poetics documentary directed by John Carluccio in the works, and we couldn't be more excited. To second DJ Spinna, who appears in the piece, "this is the first time someone has made a magazine for people like myself." We more than agree. Can't wait for this to drop. Thanks to Plug Label for putting us on to this.Tags: dj spinna, documentary, john carluccio, wax poetics

Man, I can't remember how or when I saw my first issue of Wax Poetics, but they are littered through my house now. I was so blown away by the quality of EVERYTHING...the writing, the photography and the subjects they highlight. They are what I had hoped VIBE would be for commercial music. But alas, that didn't happen after the debut issue. Wax Poetics is definitely the ONLY music mag I buy.

But it's been calling me.
The binge is inevitable and it will be epic.
I'm just trying to resist as long as I can.
