Issue #1: Genesis
Before the relaunch. Before the expansion. Before the movement.
Genesis is where it all began.
Born in Carthage, Mississippi, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Issue #1 captures the courage, creativity, and cultural commentary that sparked Cue The Culture into existence. What started as a bold idea in uncertain times became a platform celebrating Black social media influence, storytelling, and modern cultural power.
This inaugural issue is more than a magazine. It’s a time capsule of resilience and vision. It also marks the launchpad moment that helped give birth to the BET Twenties Aftershow with B. Scott (now Them/They) — proof that when culture is documented with intention, doors open.
If you believe in owning the origin story…
If you value first editions…
If you understand that legacy always has a beginning…
Start where we started.
