If you haven’t picked up a copy of RESPECT Magazine yet, you must not be a card carrying member of the hip hop generation.  For those who don’t know, RESPECT Magazine,  is an amazing, and rare, blend of equal appreciation for both the music itself and the amazing photographers who’ve shaped the way we look at hip hop.

Photo edited by the insanely talented Sally Berman, this magazine doesn’t focus on the tabloid gossip of hip hop, but the amazing blend of artists that come together to make this culture something to cherish.  Hip hop isn’t dead y’all, its alive and kicking on the pages of RESPECT.

Recently the magazine partnered up with K-SWISS and asked 4 legendary photographers to define the meaning of the word “Classic”  through self-portrait, video and written word.  Check out a bit of the campaign here, and for even more go pick up a copy of RESPECT Magazine currently on stands now.
