#4 Music magazine & it's Genre Including the Attraction of Target audience

The music magazine blaitently signifies it's Genre for example Hip hop because it's displaying the Hip hop artist at the front of the magazine (Eminem) along with text that matches the entire theme of the Hip hop magazine, also reading the text for example "Vengeance is Eminem" reveals to us that Eminem the hip hop artist is back to get revenge in the Hip Hop world, meaning he's currently or even released songs that explain his "Vengeance". Also on the top left it has "Hip Hop on a higher level" which evidentely shows that this is a hip hop magazine.

The fact that the magazine is popular and many people know of it's existence, it has a worldwide known hip hop artist at the front in a mid shot position with a gun in his right hand, a skull on his chest and devious looking eyes, with a gradient black background and transparent text highlighting the first and last letter of his name in a red stroke, is definitely saying something. The targert audience would unquestionably be drawn in by this front cover of the magazine for eminem is likely to be their favourite artist and the reader being shown how good the front cover looks gives them a sense of urgency to know what's in the rest of the magazine about a range of other artists and to know more about the "vengeance" of Eminem .
