1. Name of the
magazine has been
put at the bottom
instead of the top.
The creator has
probably done this to
attract the audience
solely on the image
instead of the
masthead.
The artistice face
is faded by the
dark background.
The creator and
photographer has
decided to do this
to show the dark
side of Hip-Hop.
The facial
image of 'Ice
Cuber' is close
up to show the
aggressive
expression on
his face, which
in a way
portrays the
kind of rap
music he
does , it shows
seriousness,
anger and
agression.
2. The source's way
of saying content's
page is 'master
plan', this maybe
because one of
the artist's song is
called 'master
plan'.
House style is
wicked and
morose. The
colours of black,
white and red
match with HipHop's lines 'Hip
Hop is dead'. The
caption has also
been a name and
a song album.
The original
logo has been
abbreviated to
a single letter,
this is because
the intended
audience
already know
what the
magazine is
called. We see
this at the
bottom of the
page as well.
Half of Ice Cuber's
face is covered with a
red transparent
textbox strip portraying
the negative
associations with HipHop as red indicates
sinister.
