This is my second draft for my front cover, I have altered my cover to fit the genres purpose in an more appropriate way.

• The first thing I had changed was the background colour of my cover. The reason for doing this was so that the cover could relate to genre more, I did some research and hip-hop front cover magazines have a tendency to use dull dark colours/ shades, hence why the colour is now darker.
• I then did some secondary research and used texts from other front cover to make my cover look more conventional, furthermore I added images of all stars who are going to feature in my magazine. lastly I tilted the Khalid image through right way so that the text beneath it could be aligned under the image.
• I added in a bar code to make the cover look realistic and have edited the front cover line in a way that makes the cover look better, it is no longer across the whole page, notably it is now in the right hand corner of the page.
