I will now analyse the website, album artwork and fashion of the hip/hop artist 'Lil Wayne.' The reason for doing so, is to gain some understanding and knowledge on the codes and conventions that associate each artist with the hip/hop genre. When I create my magazine, this analysis will be very useful, as I will be able to revert back and use the components that I highlighted, in order to improve my work and make it stronger. I have commented and highlighted other factors that improve the website, album artwork and fashion, other than the codes and conventions, so that I can improve my work further. Now these evaluations have been completed I feel that I have a much better understanding of the codes and conventions that are used to create an affective hip/hop related product, I will use these factors in my own magazine, to make it look stronger, more professional and be associated with the hip/hop genre to the best of my ability.
The second artist that I am going to investigate, is Lil Wayne, a popular hip/hop artist:
Website:
Album Artwork:
Fashion:
From the research I have completed on Lil Wayne, I have gained the information that I will use to create my draft for the magazine. I will take the aspect, components and knowledge of the codes and conventions of the hip/hop genre and apply them to my magazine. During my photography stage, I will keep what associated the aspects with the genre in mind. This includes having the model staring at the audience with a stern look on their face. It also includes having the models in black and white, so that I am following the convention of the hip/hop genre. Jewellery is needed, in order to follow the codes and convention of hip/hop fashion.
