UPTOWN Magazine is the only luxury lifestyle company targeting the growing Affluent African American (AAA) market.
A Toast to Luxury, Lifestyle & Living, nobody embraces UPTOWN's philosophy more than Diddy himself. UPTOWN Magazine is the natural platform to mark the tenth anniversary of Sean John and Combs' meteoric rise.
"Sean John's 10 year milestone and Diddy as a fashion icon have created an emerging industry of style for the new millennium," said Jeffrey Tweety, Sean John Executive Vice President. "UPTOWN Magazine has given this movement a voice that speaks to the style conscience."
The Style issue also marks UPTOWN's biggest advertising revenue to date. As many print titles have struggled to retain ad sales, UPTOWN has grown exponentially. UPTOWN's combination of integrated marketing programs as well as a unique product offering has proven to be a great vehicle for luxury brands such as Maserati, Tiffany, Aston Martin, Veuve Clicquot, Lexus and many others.
"Affluent African Americans are a growing, sizeable and often untapped $29.8 billion dollar opportunity for luxury brands," said Leonard Burnett, Co-CEO, Group Publisher of Uptown Media. "We wanted to highlight Sean Combs and Sean John as pioneers who have been responsible for redefining luxury."
Other features include 90 Essentials to Upgrade Your Wardrobe, as well as commentary by Lawrence Otis Graham on being rich, educated and well connected.
