The Source - music magazine

Article on R&B artist Chris Brown

The article has a simple look I think this layout is very tasteful. the medium long-shot of the interviewee Chris Brown shows that he is an important major artist, the fact that this image has been taken in the same photo shoot makes a reader know this article is a top story.

I feel this article really connects with The Source magazines typical reader. Aliya S.King the writer uses modern language and urban slang to create a comfortable and informal feel to the article. The interview the article is based on is with a popular artist who the typical reader will most likely like as the magazine is themed on hip hop one of his genres, even so the writer introduces him, positively pointing out his achievements and briefly combining facts and details with gossip and rhetorical questions to engage the reader rather than detailed specifics which would most likely bore the young vibrant age group that the magazine is aimed at.
