The Vault: Finally, We Get To Avail Jay-Z May Need To Teach His Business Partners A Thing Or Two About Royalties

Meet The New Boss

Hey everyone–

Brian, the lame duck here. As some of you may know, Friday will be my last day at Idolator, and I’m extremely pleased to announce that Associate Editor Maura Johnston will be taking over the site. This is good news for Idolator readers, and a bit of a milestone, as Maura is the first Love/Hate fan to assume leadership at a music-news outlet in what must be years.

Feel free to send any congrats/gripes her way. I’ll be in the back, phoning it in more aggressively than usual.

    Here's the key question: Why *do* you think they call it dope?

  • CultureBully


    Congrats on what I can only presume to be the kick-assiest of positions

  • Dan Gibson


    I'm just going to assume that this Maura can be trusted until I see evidence to the contrary.

  • brasstax


    Brian has a footlocker full of all-occasion puns that he's leaving behind that should hold out until at least 2012.

  • KeBove


    Grats! Does this mean the bad puns are gonna stop now? I hope not.

  • brasstax


    Yes! Metal me, please.

  • capn_guthrie


    a woman editor? this blog is going down the tubes. (grats)

  • NickEddy


    Congrats!



    I assume if Maura had not gotten the position, someone would be living in fear of being hit in the noggin with an E'Nuff Z'nuff cassette.
