This double page spread uses a different layout to the previous ones I have analysed. As instead of contrasting and mixing the image used and the text to create one double page spread spread, it has separated the image from the text by having it on the left page and the text/article on the right. In doing this it makes it easier to identify the two but perhaps makes it more difficult to associate them with each other. Although this is different to most double page spreads it does not mean it is any less effective as it does still uses the same techniques but in a different way. This layout looks more simplistic, this is good however as it fits the Hip Hop genre better as rap is seen as a very dull ordinary genre which is unique. I think they have purposely made this look unique and not use the traditional layout to show that rap is not like other genres as it is individual and very different from most other forms of music, therefore this is very effective, in making it stand out as a rap magazine therefore making it easier for the target audience to recognise it. I will not be using this technique for my rough cut magazine as I have decided to go for the traditional layout and have my image cover both pages and act as the background for the article. However if I do not like this after the feedback of my work, I will consider changing it to this technique for my final design as it may be more appropriate and fit the genre better making it a much more effective rap DPS.
