Right On! was an American teen magazine published from 1971 to c. 2011 which focused on African American celebrities. It was published by Dorchester Media.
The magazine was born in 1971, out of the desire to have a teen idol type magazine for African Americans. Like Tiger Beat did with White American and Hispanic celebrities, Right On! covered everything and everyone African American and involved in the entertainment business. It also offered female readers make-up tips, and had a pen pals section as well.
During its early years, Right On! focused primarily on the lives and careers of The Jackson 5, as well as Motown labelmates The Temptations and Diana Ross. In the 1980s Right On! was instrumental in the popularity of R&B teen group New Edition.[citation needed]
