The Masthead is big because that’s the name of the magazine, so it has to be eye catching to the readers so they can remember what they were reading. The colour of the title stands out because it is on a black background and the black and white together is quite rocky and mescaline. And then the yellow just gives it a bit of lightness to the magazine.

‘New’ is a buzz word. And it’s at the top because it automatically tells the reader that the magazine is fresh and they are not missing out on the latest things. It’s also highlighted in yellow because it stands out on top of the white.

Normally you find that bar codes are at the back of the magazines. But when it’s at the front it means that an advert is at the back. And having an advert at the back is exceptive so they have to put the bar code at the front.

‘Exclusive’ is a buzz word and it’s on top of the sell line because it tells the audience that their about to find out something new about this artist that know one else knows. Kind of like a secret between the magazine and the reader.

The name on his t-shirt being so big suggest that he is trying to get a message across. The name on his top suggests he’s going to make it as a rapper continually and that nothing can stop him nor slow him down. However the word being white on a black top makes it stand out even more.

His facial expression and body language give a mode of address. And the mode of address it’s giving is not so friendly, but it’s more strong, firm and mescaline.

Normally website addresses are not so big or in this kind of format. But because it’s so big its eye catching for the reader, but because of how it’s set out it might be a gamble between the reader noticing wither it’s a website or not.

‘Drake’ his name is big, bold and bright which stands out and catches eyes straight away. His name is also underneath the masthead which makes u look at the name straight after because that’s the next big thing near it. However the fact that he’s name is in all capitols, gives an effect of the name screaming/shouting at you.

The fact that his head is covering part of the masthead shows how important he is and that all focus is on him.

All sell lines are around him, which shows how important he is yet again.

The intensity in his eyes connects with the word on his top. However he looks too cool to show any emotions because his top says it all.
