About Me

URB is the premier alternative music magazine
for multicultural Gen-Y, covering emergent hip-hop, indie and
electronic music and the lifestyles that surround it. Launched on the
principle that what was occurring beneath the surface and outside the range of mainstream eyes and ears was worth celebrating and
documenting, URB remains the vanguard for whats next. Today it is the longest-running and most-read underground music magazine in America. In both 2003 and 2005, URB was the recipient of the WPAs Maggie Award in the Music/Consumer magazine category as well as the 2004 Dancestar USA Music Award for Best Magazine.
