2. • Nicki Minaj is one of the leading female
rappers in the modern day and appeals to
men and idolised by the women.
• She is very revealing of her body which
represents that she isn’t concerned about
her body whatsoever. She is representing
confidence and trying to pass that around.
• The tattoos can link to her rebellious side
and show her wealth which represents
that she is a rich bad girl which other
people should aspire to imitate.
• Her costume shows off most of her body,
only covering her private areas and her
pose is showing no fear whatsoever which
adds to the representation that she is a
‘manic diva’ and proud to show off her
looks.
3. • The representation of Little Mix
contrasts largely to the representation
of Nicki Minaj.
• Little Mix are not dressed to catch the
males attention as much, mainly to the
fact that there band appeals to a
younger audience. They seem to be
aspiring for wealth and a great career,
whereas Nicki aspires to be more better
looking and more of a ‘manic diva’.
• All of Little Mix are posing in a happy
way/smiling which represents them as a
fun to be around/energetic female
band. They are not appealing as sex
objects unlike Nicki Minaj.
• They are all touching one another to
represent togetherness and that its
better to have people around you than
to be alone.
4. • Bastille in this magazine are represented
as optimistic and hardworking as they are
‘breaking America’.
• They are casually posing as if they are
confident in doing the challenge. They
are showing that confidence will lead to
success. Also, this cover contrasts a
massive amount from the Nicki Minaj
cover, as they are not posing as sex
objects or trying to hard to attract the
opposite gender.
• This band will inspire up and coming
British bands as it will infer to them that
hard work and talent will help you break
into America like they have.
• Its sort of similar to the Little Mix cover
as they want there music to do the
talking not their bodies.
5. • This American rapper contrasts a lot
from the bands, but has a lot in common
with the Nicki Minaj cover. They both
give off the rebellious attitude by the
tattoos and pose.
• Lil Wayne has his top off and is showing
off his gold teeth. Furthermore this
represents that ‘I don’t care’ attitude
which gets passed on to the audience.
He also seems confident about his
appearance and wealthy due to all his
tattoos and expensive hat.
• The black and white edit gives a mood of
mysteriousness which helps consumers
understand that he is a unique character.
• Unlike the bands, Nicki Minaj and Lil
Wayne try to give off the rebellious vibe
not the fun and energetic vibe.
6. • This photo of Devlin represents where
he is from and that he is a ‘hard to
approach’ character.
• The black and white effect gives off a
real mysterious and appealing look and I
want to imitate this style within my
magazine cover picture.
• The simplicity is also appealing as if its
too filled with colour and subheadings
for example then it creates a playful vibe
which is not what I want to imitate. I
want mine to be serious but sort of
rebellious just like the Nicki Minaj and Lil
Wayne cover.
• I aim to make my magazine cover
rebellious and mysterious but also a bit
smiley at the same time so the
consumers don’t feel to put off with the
seriousness of it.
