Jamie Marshall analyzed 5 masthead designs for their magazine through a group discussion. The group felt the genre of the magazine was hip hop based on the name. They also felt mastheads 2 and 3 were the best designs, with masthead 3 working best because the bold style would match the hip hop genre. Masthead 5 was viewed as the worst design since some letters were not visible and the style did not fit hip hop. Jamie agreed masthead 3 was the best choice as the bold style would look good at the top of the magazine, but would need additional effects and colors added.
