THE ABC’S OF LA: RAYMOND ROKER

By Mykal • Nov 9th, 2009 • Category: BLOG, CBG123

After a much too long hiatus.. the ABC’S OF LA are BACK!! and this time Cottrell is pulling out some pretty fish out of the LA pond. This episode’s feature is on RAYMOND ROKER the “co-founder” of URB magazine. His chat with Cottrell is pretty interesting so sit back and enjoy.

“This episode of “The ABC’s of LA” is very special to me because I feel like I got to hear a real chunk of Los Angeles History. Raymond Roker, the editor and chief of URB discusses the past 20 years of running a Magazine. This man pushed the envelope and broke boundaries to pave the way for other magazines to come. Take head of his words and listen to his stories because Raymond was writing about graffiti, fashion, art before it was cool.”


Stay tuned for some more ABC’S OF LA goodness brought to you by the one and only CBG123!
