- This magazine is called XXL and is sort of focused at the same kind of target audience as my magazine, the genre of GRIME does not really have many magazines out on the market but the hip hop magazines are very close. This front cover definately stands out and will appeal to the target audience mainly because of the main image of Birdman and Lil Wayne. The picture itself will appeal to everyone who likes this genre of music because of the fact that they are 2 of the biggest stars in the hip hop industry.The "Bling" they are wearing gives a impression of wealth and ganster looking. The top left corner has the title saying 10th Anniversary our biggest issue ever, which draws our attention too it making us believe it may be better than other magazines. What the models are wearing is very steriotypical , it is usual gangsta clothing. A flat peak cap , baggy jeans , chains , lots of tattoos this means the target audience would most probably wear the same kind of thing because these are there icons.
-This magazine Rap-Up is a magazine on the genre of rap which again isn't my genre but is close enough. The main model is T.I who is a well known rapper, this makes the magazine more appealing because they may want to read about the well known rappers. Also the title RAP-UP is covered up by part of the modles head, but because its such a well known magazine it just adds to the effect and makes it look trendy. The taglines and straplines feature names of other well known artist's which makes the magazine more appealing. The Font style and colour scheme of the magazine with the the pink, black and white makes the magazine appeal to materalists. The magazine is appealing to all the people in its genre or people who like the artists mentioned.
- True magzine is a Hip hop magazine but also has fashion in, this is a good idea because it will appeal to a much bigger niche. 50 Cent is also a major artist in the Hip Hop industry so the title "50 Cent : The Real Curtis Jackson " is appealing to the target audience because they will want to know more about the artist. The colour scheme on this magazine is excellent, the white background makes the blue font stand out, also the way the model is dressed in different shades of blue makes this cover appeal to the people who like fashion and hip hop. As in all the magazines of my genre there are other artists names down the side which will make the target audience even more interested. The strap and taglines also stand out, this will draw the target audience to the cover making them want to read more.
Typical reader :
- Listen to Grime / Rap music.

- They are hedonists.
- They are post-modernists.
- They prefer to be out all night than in at home
- They may take drugs and drink privately but openly with friends.
