Vibe Magazine Textual Analysis Summary

From this magazine cover, I really like the colour palette that they have used because the colours of yellow, black and white work well and make everything stand out. Also the added bit of colour from August Alsina's outfit makes the main image stand out against the colour palette therefore making it eye-catching and appealing to the reader. The medium-long shot used works really well because it fits all 3 of the artists in but we still get to see their clear expressions and also we get a good view of their outfits to connote bit about them. I think that I will definitely use this type of shot if I have more than one artist or a band because it makes the cover look a bit different to the others.
It works well that they have used very stereotypical images of rappers for Mack Wilds and some for August Alsina because it shows the audience their genre and connotes more about them. I like the contrast between all 3 of the artists, because it makes the magazine more interesting and appealing to have a few different people who you might not think would be on a cover together.
