Magazine Selection By Calvin and Emily

XXL Magazine - This is one of our magazine choices, we chose this because its content is based on hip hop and mainstream artists and music genre. Our single, 'I wanna be a star' focuses on an artists rise to fame and wanting to become recognised in the music industry. our group feel our music genre is relevant to the magazine and that it will promote our music and the artist.

Rolling Stone magazine - This magazine is another choice we have as it a well known and recognised magazine, which was created in the late 60's. its target audience is teenagers to young adults, so we feel this is suited to our music genre as this is the target audience we are trying to reach. Well known artists have been featured in this magazine, this promotes the artist as the magazine is popular.

RWD - This is our last choice for our magazine selection. This is a UK based magazine, targeting the youth. It mainly focuses on the dance genre, but features new and up and coming artists in our music genre. Through this our music genre is being promoted to a wider audience.


From this research we have made three choices of magazine we feel would be the best to advertise our music genre and artist. Our first choice mainly focuses on R&B and Hip Hop so it is likely this magazine will promote our artist well. Both the first and second magazine choices we made are international magazines, which would promote our artist further. RWD will promote our music in the UK to our target audience. As this magazine is danced based and promotes parties and gigs this would allow the audience to create remixes with our music, further promoting our music and artist.
