Rolling Stone Magazine South Africa

Tomorrow (November 23rd) the legendary Rolling Stone Magazine will hit the shelves... South African style. It makes sense to bring a music magazine of this scale to the South African scene since the SA music industry has grown rapidly over the past 10 years.

Rolling Stone South Africa Editor-In-Chief Miles Keylock says: “It’s about respect – for our subject matter and our readers. We focus on real, in-depth pop culture and current affairs stories, not tabloid headlines and hype. You’re not going to get this kind of editorial content in any other magazine in South Africa. We will be featuring kwaito alongside rock, jazz alongside pop, and hip-hop alongside house. That potential, to start cross-pollinating cultural conversations, is one of the most exciting things about the magazine.”
