Cover 2

This Magazine cover has been given the nam 'Source.' I think this is an appropriate title for this magazine because it refers to the magazine providing the reader with information on this particular genre of music.

The title also shows an image of a hand holding a microphone replacing the circle from the centre of the 'O' This represents the importance of the music and the value of performing.

The magazine also uses repetition to reinforce the genre of the music. 'Hip-hop' is repeated several times. Both in columns and in the tagline.

The Masthead and the border around the magazine are both in Gold, this is used as the colour Gold represents, winning and wealth, both words used to describe the personalities and feelings associated with this type of music, and its perfomers.

The image is central to the page, It is ane extreme close up. This exsentuates the importance of the artist. Indications are also given by the way she is pointing at the camera, to the stereotypical attitude the artists have. The image is also very posed.
