2. VIBE – RAP MAGAZINE
The first impression of the magazine is that it is a pop music magazine probably aimed at
younger teenagers, you get the feel for this as it uses quite light colours, such as the blue for
example, it’s a light, bubbly colour that jumps out at you.
There is a picture of a solo artist inset into the front of the magazine and they are surrounded
on one side by some of what the magazine includes, such as other artists and competitions.
There is only one image on the front of the magazine and the picture is of one artist.
The artist is also pictured to look as though he is staring right at you.
Also you get the feel that the artist is looking aggressively at you this is also helped with the
stance, he is stood with he arms crossed and looking straight at you, this is quite fitting for the
stereotypical rap magazine.
There appears to be a set colour scheme for the fonts of the text on the front of the magazine.
You immediately see the red and black title of the magazine and the smaller text also featured on the
front of the magazine is also in the colour scheme of black or red.
The text is also contrasted against the white background of the magazine, I would assume that this so
the text stands out on the background.

3. I PERSONALLY THINK THAT THE RAP MAGAZINE “VIBE” FITS THE RAP GENRE VERY WELL. IT DOES THIS BY
HAVING A WELL KNOWN AND POPULAR RAPPER FEATURED ON THE FRONT OF THE MAGAZINE IT ALSO DOES
THIS BY THE WAY THE RAPPER IS CAPTURED AND THE TEXT THAT IS ALSO INCLUDED ON THE FRONT OF THE
MAGAZINE.
