Hoodgrown Magazine Launches the First Hip Hop iPad Magazine App
What started as a print magazine that ceased publication due to increasing print cost and decreasing advertising revenue has returned as the first hip hop magazine app to hit the Apple store. Spearheaded by Chris “Cartel” English and Lord Jamar (of Brand Nubian fame), the Hoodgrown Magazine app is now available for download in the Apple App store.
“Though the website has been gaining in popularity I always knew that one day we would return to our print roots.” says Hoodgrown’s CEO, Chris English. “This app allows us to combine the best of the print and web experience in a whole new package. I'll admit it took a little longer to bring to fruition than I would have liked, but already we're improving on design and interactive elements.”
The app is available as a free download in the app store, as will each issue due to its advertiser supported model.
