Congrats to Elliott Wilson and Danyel Smith, Proud Parents
Following yesterday's news that Danyel Smith is returning to Vibe comes another big announcement for Smith and her hubb, XXL boss Elliott Wilson: they are welcoming a son into the family!
After some legal wrangling, the paperwork has finally gone through for their somewhat unorthodox adoption process, which makes them the legal guardians of man in his late thirties named Jeremy Miller, Editor-in-Chief of the Source Magazine. This middle-aged bundle of joy completes the Smith-Wilson master plan to place all hip-hop publishing in one family's control.
In related news, police also came by the Smith-Wilson household yesterday to remove former Source owner Raymond "Benzino" Scott, who was reportedly knocking on doors and shouting "come on, don't y'all remember your long-lost Uncle Ray-Ray?"

Wow, I didn't realize Vibe was still around. I honestly can't remember the last time I saw them on a magazine rack.

Okay that part is a joke, but the rest is totally serious. Totally.

I know I know, but that phrasing made the joke flow better. :) I don't even know if that's his actual age..
