ROLLING STONE Magazine continues to make piss-poor choices for their covers AND content. While there latest flash of fuckery isn't nearly as offensive as their choice of putting an Umpa Lumpa ('Jersey Shore's' SNOOKI) on the cover; it's still a bit of a slap in the face to the fans of what has historically been a MUSIC magazine.
The legendary Beastie Boys' Adam Yauch passed away last week after a battle with cancer. One would think the magazine would have honored him and the groundbreaking group by putting them on the cover. Clearly there was enough time to put some 'memorial' text on the cover, but the powers that be still gave coverage to Peter Dinklage who plays the (as he's referred to on the show) midget 'Tyrion' on HBO's 'Game of Thones'. We're fans of Peter and the show...but that's just some lame ass shit. We won't be renewing our subscription to the magazine because we're not sure THEY'RE sure if MUSIC should continue to be the priority of the magazine.
