About 2LOUD
2LOUD Magazine – Our Story
Before the hashtags, before the influencers, before Yelp told you where the hottest night was — there was 2LOUD (but we went by another name).
Founded 14 years ago by husband-and-wife duo Corey and Ashley Haynes, 2LOUD started as a late-night passion project: a club review site documenting the real pulse of Houston's nightlife. Armed with nothing but their voices and vision, they sat side-by-side in crowded clubs, writing honest reviews and forming organic relationships — not just with partygoers, but with the celebrities, artists, and tastemakers sitting just a few booths away.
What began as nightlife commentary quickly evolved into exclusive interviews — and those interviews became the foundation of a cultural magazine that didn’t just talk about the scene... it shaped it.
Today, 2LOUD Magazine is Houston’s #1 infotainment platform — where Hip-Hop meets heart, where culture meets community, and where underground voices get the same shine as household names. With an eye on music, art, entrepreneurship, and everything in between, we don’t just report what’s happening — we reflect what’s real.
We’re not just loud.
We’re 2LOUD — and we’ve been tuned into the culture since before it had a mic.
