Analysing music magazine front covers

When looking at the magazine vibe first thing that catches my eye is the title of the magazine. The way the title is portaryed allows the main heading to stand out from the other heading which shows its importance within the magzine. The main picture of keyshia represnets alot to do with the magzine and the fact she is naked may infer that the magazine is informal. As keyshia Cole is the main and only picture on the front cover may give the audience an idea that the main story in the magzine is to do with her which is also shown by the size and boldness of her name on the front cover unlike the other names such as nelly and bow wow. In addition, the colour schemes (red,blue and white) are used very clevery here to represent the country the magazine was published in which is the USA. The red represents the important people used ithin the magazine and also the boldness

Analysing this front cover shows a clear difference from the vibe as this music magazine is portrayed as a more  formal due to the pictures to used, language used and also the font, also you may be able to argue that its formality is evident due to the music the magazine is trying to express. The picture used gives a clear in sight on what type of music the magazine is about showing a musician holding a violin and just like the vibe magazine the main picture is used to show who or what the main story will be on contributed bt the bold writing of the musicians nam (sarah chang)
