Al Lindstrom Interview With Noah Callahan-Bever (Complex EIC) pt. 1 [VIDEO]



Al Lindstrom:
Welcome to Allindstrom.com's Print That Sh*! Series. For the next two weeks we will be looking at two of the most important people in the urban music print world. First up, we have Noah Callahan-Bever. Noah is the Editor-In-Chief of Complex Magazine.
In part 1 of our 3 part interview, we discuss his past. He first talks about what got him into the print game. Then he talks about his time at Ego Trip. He says that being in a place where the focus was more on putting out a great product, and less on making a huge profit, was a great moment in his life. Finally, we talk about Blaze magazine. He explains that at Blaze, the philosophy was to cover the new artists, instead of competing for the bigger named artists that the other mags would go for. He said that this taught him to create his own lane with Complex, instead of trying to do what the other mags were doing.
