The reason I have decided to look at this magazine advertisement is because the Genre is completely different to my chosen artist's genre, so looking at other genre's will help me see what different magazine advertisements look like for different types of music, I also could still put some of these elements into my own magazine advert.
The main image of the hip hop star in a powerful stance staring into the audiences eyes, telling the audience to buy the album, he is wearing conventionally the clothes that a hip hop star would wear, including the basketball style jacket and baggy jeans with big sneakers. The bright colour pink stands out to the audience and also means fun and also youthful, and this is the audience that Dizzee wants to buy the album, younger people who are fun and know about the rap scene, plus its a little unconventional for a hip hop male artist to have a pink album, so its breaking those boundries and making him different in the grime hip hop scene. This was also around the time that pink was a popular colour for males to wear, it was okay and seen as cool to wear this colour. The font is the album font to promote it, the white really stands out against the pink, he also could have the font in a black and white colouring to show that both races can listen to his music, in my opinion I think he has done this too because in London, where most of his fan base is, they are both white and black and he wants to promote this album to both of them.

There is also a review of the album on the poster, which gives maybe the audience who have not heard the full album before but heard a few songs of dizzee's an insight into the full album and what they can expect, as usually the audience trust a critics word, and they believe in what they say. There is also the website and the orginsation website for the audience to check if they want to find out more about Dizzee.
