Again, hip hop weekly has a different approach to the other magazines I have analysed. This contents page is a lot more packed with writing. This is less interesting but more informative.

‘Word on the street’ is a common phrase used by hip hop fanatics. This is a good way to describe the content as the readers can relate to this language.

The subscription advertisement is highlighted by red to make it stand out.

The logo has no inner filling which gives the logo an old-school look which correlates with Hip Hops culture.

Stars are used throughout the contents page. This gives each category such as ‘Entertainment’ an icon as each star is a different colour. The use of categorisation is a good tactic as it makes an article easier to find.

Page number and magazine name.

Hip Hop weekly felt no need to add a title to this page. Numbers are used throughout so it is clear that this page is a contents. A thick red bar is used to group the features.

The artist at the top of the page is smiling in the photo. This is a different approach as hip hop artists are presented as hardened characters with an image of being ‘bad’.

This image shows 3 hip hop artists all posing in different ways. Suggesting that life as music producer is different to a normal occupation.
