4. Due to the magazine being well
established it is able to change colour
palettes because they have a loyal
audience
Cover lines this is often
around the center
image.
Date and barcode always
at the bottom of the
magazine which the web
site will be under.
The central image is often a
musician/s this makes it eye
catching for the target audience
because they want to know

and is covered by main image this shows
the the magazine has built a brand
identity

goes against the basic codes and
conventions of a hip hop.

around the central image, which
help to maintain the magazines
loyal audience and bring new
ones in by having other images to
