Laz Alonso Graces the Cover of Heed Magazine with “Humility” as Heed Prepares To Make Their Mark With A Debut Print Issue Distributed in Barnes & Noble Nationally

Issue features Dawn Richard, Luke James, Fred Hammond, Ruben Studdard, Tiffany Evans and many more.

New York, NY (March 26, 2012) - After leading the new year off on the right foot with a steamy Marsha Ambrosius winter cover, Heed leaps into spring with Hollywood Headliner and 2012 NAACP Award Winner, Laz Alonso. No other actor but the Howard Alumnist would do justice to the print launch of Heed Magazine in Barnes & Noble stores. With Laz’s suave appeal and Heed’s clean aesthetic, this was a perfect fit in production of greatness. Unlike the stack of mundane music magazines that hog the shelves of countless newsstands, Heed Magazine will expose the “voice of an emerging subculture” with a sleek sophistication unique to that of its’ peers.

In the spring issue of Heed Magazine, Laz Alonso shares his journey from Wall Street to Broad Way and how pursuing his passion with humility and perseverance landed him a spot among acting’s elite. Dawn Richard opens up about success as a Bad Boy artist and gives us a glance of what’s in store for her in the near future. Heed is always on the cutting edge of publishing technology and will offer a special edition Dawn Richard cover of the spring issue on April 20th exclusively via www.Magcloud.com. Also, exclusive interviews with legendary gospel artist Fred Hammond, newcomer Luke James and re-emerging super talents Ruben Studdard, Tiffany Evans and Tanya Blount.
On Tuesday, April 10th Heed will be available on the newsstands of Barnes & Noble stores across this country. The journey to this stage in publisher, Saoul Vanderpool’s eyes was far from easy, “This is my baby and godchild to a staff of today’s leaders, trendsetters and game-changers who have persevered to bring to surface the voice of an emerging subculture. An abundance of time, nursing and persistence has brought this matte finished issue into the palms of your hands. We only hope that you will experience the beauty, substance and enlightened perspective our team sought out to create at Heed’s conception.”

To premiere the release of the spring issue, Heed Magazine will host a private NYC red-carpet launch event in celebration of this monumental accomplishment. To inquire about information and to attend as media email prmedia@heedmag.com
