Style Reads: Idris Elba Covers Uptown

It's quite refreshing to see one of, if not the most handsome men in Hollywood on the cover of Uptown, my favorite magazine for African-Americans. The Hollywood Issue has some great features that our well worth the read. This is the example of a quality magazine with refreshing content and different covers of people we want to see. Hopefully some other magazines will follow suit.
