Jill's Zine Reviews
|
Jills Rating System:
| Nescafe................ | Don't bother. Not even worth spilling your latte on.
|
| House Blend......... | Run of the mill. Slightly interesting, neither fantastic nor crappy.
|
| Moccacinno........... | Fluffy eye candy. Yummy, clever and achingly hip.
|
| Espresso.............. | Beautifully put together. Sweet, to the point, not stuffed with superfluous ads and razor
thin bimbos. Informative and relevant.

Mass Appeal
Jill thinks that this one is a new contender on the newsstand, or else she has just never
noticed this mag before. In the tradition of The Fader, Mass Appeal speaks to the New York, Chicago, hip-hop scene,
but remains completely readable for anyone who is unfamiliar with that whole thing.
Fabulous cover, innovative
layout and design, yet accessible, Mass Appeal reads like a less sophisticated cousin of The Fader. There is a
several page spread in the centre of the magazine that features work by graffiti artists, and articles covering
the usual DJ's and fashionistas.
Jill gives Mass Appeal a House Blend.
