This is the contents page of a hip hop magazine, the colours used are red and orange. The main image takes up almost all of the page with only a little writing.

The focus of the contents page is on the main image, it is a mid range shot of a artist. it is a artist that i dont know so maybe he is not that known which suggests the magazine may not be a well known magazine, or his a new artist in the industry. Te artists face is serious, going back to that he might be a new artists he could be showing that he means business and aint here to joke around hence why is not smiling in the picture. The colour of the artsist jacket goes with the background, the orange jacket and red background look good.

The text on the contents page is small and does not take up hardly any space on the space on the page.

The typefont of the contents page is small. the heading and the subheadings have been put into bold.



This is a double spread page of a hip hop magazine, the heading of this page is 'ones & twos'. The two words in the heading are in different styles, the ones is in bold white while 'twos' has just a white outline. This show maybe a differnce of two differenet people's personality one being bold and one being shallow. 

The main image on both pages are placed at the bottom of the pages, so the layout of the two pages are generally the same, the pages are mainly taken up y text there is a lot writing on both sides. The page to the left, the text is formed around the image, where as on the other other page the all the text is located on top of the main images. The main image on the left page is in colour and the main image on the right is black and white, having one image colour will make that image stand out more, so maybe that artists is a more popular artist why they put him in colour. 

The headings are in the same place, in the same typefont and same style, this is probably an on going thing though ouut the magazine, maybe the theme of this issue.  

Some of the text is red while the rest is black, the text in red will be more important information or text the magazine want to to ecnourage readers to listen to.

There is some extra text in a black box to right of the second page, this text would be things seprate to the text in the middle, be about different stories.

The main image on the left side is wearing flashy glasses and has a gold chain on, this suggests that he is maybe wealthy, so is probably an artist that is quite successful. whereas on the right page they have there hoods up with normal stage mics, this suggests that maybe they are underground artists and not mainstream.
