The document discusses images that will and will not be used in a music magazine. Images of the rap group "Kingz" portraying a violent image with hoods and gun signs will be used on the cover and in a double page spread to represent the group's background and intrigue audiences. Additional images of the three members making the same hand signs close together will also be used in the double page spread to show their loyalty and unity. An image will not be used because it is landscape rather than portrait for the cover, and another will not be used because the members are not close enough together and two have non-serious facial expressions that do not match the serious image being portrayed of the group.
