      *The teen magazine created by Angela Simmons, the 18-year-old daughter of Run DMC vet Joseph “Rev. Run” Simmons, will arrive on newsstands as a package deal with Word UP! Magazine.

        The seeds of the venture were chronicled on a recent episode of “Run’s House,” the MTV reality show centered on the everyday doings of her parents and four siblings.       

       Titled Angela’s Rundown, the monthly publication will target youths age 14-18 and cover music, fashion, celebrity interviews and teen issues. Her auntie Kimora Lee Simmons will be featured in the first issue, alongside Chris Brown, Ne-Yo and Bow Wow.       

       Also included in Angela’s Rundown will be a column from her brother Daniel “Diggy” Simmons, called “Diggy’s Doin’ It.”      

       The first seven issues of the publication will be included with Word UP! as part of an agreement between Angela, Rev. Run and Word Up! founder Scott Figman. Once the magazine gets its own following, it will spin off as a publication independent of Word UP!, Figman says, according to allhiphop.com.

      Meanwhile, taping for the new season of “Run’s House” begins Sept. 26. Taking a page from the playbook of Bravo’s “Being Bobby Brown,” the new season will be preceded by a Christmas special.
