President Obama & First Lady Michelle January Essence Magazine Covers

Beautiful, baby.

President Obama in GQ

I don't quite know how I feel about this President Obama cover. I suppose that the decision to let his gray show more prominently was an attempt to make him appear more "mature" or presidential, eh? Or maybe I'm just feeling a little defensive because I, myself, have a touch of the ol' grey....

In any event, brother president is looking okay, and as for me, I best be grateful that grey is the flava right now.

Obama Gives Ebony an Exclusive

President-elect Obama has granted his first post-election interview to Ebony magazine. Here's brief snippet from the article:

"I'm very humbled by the fact that I stand on the shoulders of all the people who made these incredible contributions to lift this country up."

The commemorative issue hits the stands on Tuesday, December 9th. The top cover picture is from a past issue. But I'm sure that the upcoming one won't look like the one on the bottom, from 23/6, which takes a dig at what is probably every Republican's worst nightmare.
