1.) Even though those lists may seem ridiculous as a whole, they still attract readers from different demographics to their brand. I've seen magazines compromise themselves in much more disingenuous ways than making lists.

2.) They have a lot of lists, but they still have an abundance of quality material otherwise. It's not like they only post the lists and don't give attention to any other content. They do a great job of keeping up with daily news content to be timely, and on putting together full features that require more time, and that you aren't likely to find in other urban publications.

3.) There's something on COMPLEX for everybody. There's plenty of stuff on the site that doesn't apply to me that I dislike, but there's also plenty of stuff that I enjoy. It's a matter of sifting through everything, really.

there's somebody out there complimenting them for that ish.

what cracks me up about complex more than those horrible lists is how the mods on their site will go in on people criticizing anything they do lmao

it's alright besides the aforementioned list-click thing, the only issue I ever bought was the one Doc referenced for fiyastarter reasons.

Those Kanye faces are in fact, hilarious.
