I can’t let Tameka be great at a moment like this!

Light up a spliff and break out the Boone’s Farm. The magazine that many of us all loved and hated at times is a wrap like Reynold’s. As a kid [cue the violins please] Vibe was like my Rolling Stone, so excuse me if I have a Day 26 dramatic cunt moment before the end of the day. Life is just not fair right now.

Vibe, one of the nation’s leading popular music magazines, is closing immediately, a spokeswoman said Tuesday.

Word was broken early this afternoon by the Web site dailyfinance.com and spread to other music and media news sites. The spokeswoman, Tracy Nguyen, said the Vibe staff would be formally notified in a meeting at 2 p.m. She said she did not know how many people would be laid off as a result of the closure.

Vibe’s closure leaves just one large-circulation magazine, The Source, focusing on hip-hop and R&B. The Source has had its own troubles, going through a bankruptcy and emerging under new ownership last year. A rock-focused magazine, Blender, folded last year.

The sad news sparked a conversation about memorable moments and covers from the magazine. Step up to the podium and give your testimony! I am here to dab your forehead with my Kerney Thomas red blood of Jesus handkerchief if you my services
