The media product represents hip hop social groups through its conventions, imagery, and language. Clothing, images of male and female hip hop artists, and a blue color scheme are used to target young male and female audiences. The main artist is depicted with limited makeup and jewelry to attract readers to the content. Straightforward, chatty language and poses for the main artist that are neither immature nor overly revealing also aim to represent the target hip hop audience.

1. How does your media product represent particular social groups?

3. Through all the conventions on the pervious page I am able to represent my genre which is hip hop, such clothing represents the ages which I aiming my magazine at. I am able to target my audience through the images as well due there being hip hop artist, both male and female, despite the main image being of a female. To represent both male and female through my front I have used blue as the main colour as it is seen to be a common colour for males, and the image which will attract both male and female.I have subverted the typical convention by not having to much make up on the main artist As well as having a limited amount jewellery on the artist . Allowing readers to get attracted to the sell lines as well as the artist. I have also represent my audience through the tone in which I have written the article as well as the straight forward language, having straight forward language allows it to be a typical hip hop magazine, as the tone of the language is chatty. The poses of the main artist attract my target group, as they are not representing younger audience by having un mature poses, or representing older audience through mature and adulty poses neither are the images to revealing.
