Last December 12, Rolling Stone Philippines was officially launched by its local publisher, Modern Media Group, Inc. (MMGI).
MMGI is a subsidiary of AGC Power Holdings, Inc., which owns the titles like Mega Magazine, Billboard Philippines, and NYLON Manila.
The local version of the global publication founded by Jann Wenner and Ralph Gleason in San Francisco in 1967 was initially revealed back in June 2024.
According to MMGI, Rolling Stone Philippines aims to “provide a unique perspective on music, entertainment, and culture, with unparalleled content that inspires and informs.”
Additionally, the brand also said in its mission statement that it will “reinvent the rules and reframe culture, highlighting the personalities and topics shaping today’s narrative. It aims to establish itself as a cultural force, engaging audiences both locally and internationally.”
