How does your media product represent particular social groups?
On the above image there is a picture of the famous rapper EMINEM at a concert. He is wearing a hoodie (with the hood up) and just a plain t-shirt. This is the look I went for when doing my front cover picture. The mis en scene on this picture looked like the perfect suit of a rapper. For the other three images on my contents page and double page spread I used another famous rapper Drake's style of clothing. Simply just a black hoodie and a plain t-shirt. The thing I have learnt about rap is everything is kept as simple as possible when relating to clothing.
After reading a lot of rap magazines music articles I have found out that there is no specific language that I could identify. They are written formally and the only colloquial language used is when the artist is being quoted. So that is what I done when writing my double page spread and using the quotation for that and the front cover. The age group for the magazine is around teenagers to about 22. Because the people in the magazine (Kasey and Lewis) are the age that you expect for people to read your magazine, you wouldn't be able to talk bad about them because they would not buy the magazine.
