The magazine I decided to analyse is ‘Hip-Hop connection’, namely article named “Pure Genius” which is about an old school rap star called “GZA” which is well known, very creative lyrics creator. He is also giving classes how to rhyme.
The target audience for this article is unknown group of young people, teenagers between 16, or older who loves rap music, and listen to hip-hop every time. It’s because of the name of the magazine and stylish picture of GZA on second page you can come up with a fact that target audience is exactly the same as I mentioned it over.
Because of different age of readers you can’t find too many bad words, but as the matter of fact, there are ones, which isn’t good for young people. Good example is a quote of his words placed in the middle of the article “It’s frustrating seeing rappers talks about the same shit all the time. There is so much to write about”
Speaking for myself I really likes that he speaks what he thinks with no excuses. It’s good to show young people how they supposed to act when they have to, but without bad language.
Whole article is written in typical for rappers language, with some slang and strange metaphors.
Whole article looks very nice, with stylish font, simple colours to prevent eventual problems with reading “white font on white background”. That’s way there is white background in both pages, questions are written in red colour to separate person who asks question, from GZAs answers which are in black colour . All that simple colours and font styles makes the page clear and doesn’t affect your eyes negatively though.
The layout of double page spread it’s one of the standard ones but very professional, doesn’t include any strange settings of pictures and text. First page is completely out of any pictures, there is only text like the title, interview, and quotes. Over whole page is covered by text and little border in the bottom right corner. On the other page there is only huge picture of our star. As well very stylish in same colours as the whole article (black, white, red) which for sure have some connection, even to make it looks cool.
By looking at the picture of our star I truly got mixed feeling about him. In the article he is speaking as an ordinary guy who got passion, but when we look on the picture into our head coming thoughts that he is a gangster because he is poses like in some way, which is completely opposite to his answers. I may be wrong.
Whole article is written in specific way, with typical for rappers language so front cover match perfectly into the matter of articles situated inside of magazine.
An article doesn’t demand some huge knowledge; at least it’s good to know something about someone who is a priority in the article. As a good example I can speak for myself, I came through all the questions and to be honest I didn’t get much of it because I don’t even know this guy. Reader should know something about his career and etc.
