Music Magazine Double page spread analysis 1

This is a double page spread from Vibe magazine, shows to be an RnB/hip-hop genre magazine that has articles about today’s relevant artists and those on the limelight. The layout of this magazine stands out to the audience targeted by vibe magazine; it does this by having a funky layout that will appeal to younger generations. The consistency of the black and white dancing girls draws attention across the page, these girls bring even more attention to the main image on the double pages being the artist, Solange Knowles. The use of limited colours makes the layout of the pages stand out and brings the audiences focal point to the dress.  This double page spread is suitable for younger audience from ages of 12-20. This may also appeal to female audience who have likes for the knowles family.

The double page spread is different to the usual Vibe double page spreads and this is important because there is a change in the layout and avoids the audience from getting bored from looking at it. The blue highlight of her name ' SOLANGE KNOWLES' says a lot as soon as that page is flipped on. It has an impact because the reader would want to know exactly what it is about solange and attract them to read it.
