Masthead Research- VIBE



Through this masthead it is noticeable more of what type of music is promoted within this magazine. Firstly the name ‘vibe’ has connotations of being more calm, laid back sort of music-a type of music where people will ‘bop’ their heads to, whereas Rolling stone which is dominantly known for promoting rock music has points in the font-portraying that this type of music they promote is not laid-back but rather the total opposite. Also in combination with the name itself; the font it very curvy again suggesting a calm feeling from this we can gather that the genre of music is Hip-hop.
As African R n B magazines are very scarce as well as R n B, I have chosen to take inspiration on how my magazine will look like from the nearest type of genre which is Hip Hop.
