1. How does this media product
represent particular social groups

2. This magazine is aimed at 14-25 year old male and female readers. This magazine is
aimed at the younger audience; therefore using images of fairly young people was
appropriate. This magazine represents the majority of young people as it has a mix of
genres embedded into it.
For a start, out of the 3 images on the left side of the double page spread, only one truly
represents Hip Hop with the other two not really being related to Hip Hop. (This can be
seen through the clothing of the artist or the general look) This magazine would appeal
to many of the social classes (not upper middle or upper class) because the lower classes
(C1 and below) are the ones who typically listen to the genres represented in this
magazine. Finally the magazine will attract the more colourful audience because of its
style and mix of colour (along with the actual features of the magazine)
