SPIN Magazine 2011 December Issue featuring Odd Future

For their December issue, SPIN magazine chose hip-hop collective Odd Future for their cover, a group many consider to be the quintessential music movement of 2011. The headline, which reads “The Changing Face of Hip-Hop” features an article that surveys the group’s rapid rise from obscurity to mainstream, and their resonating effects on an ever-changing music genre. For the article, SPIN magazine writer Julianne Escobedo Shepherd met up with the caravan of musicians and pranksters on the road in Vancouver, spending an entire week trying to absorb all of their honesty, humor and creative talents. Above all, she concluded that “The Wolf Gang is a potent yet overall nice group of people that connects with fans on an extremely personal level because of their unrelenting honestly and unwillingness to compromise.” For the full article, you can head over to SPIN magazine’s website or pick up the magazine on newsstands now.
