Social Groups

How does 'Lyrics' represent a particular social group?

I believe that the social group it represents is mainly females, and some folk singers. The fonts and the look of the artist are very feminine, with a look about them that mainly appeals to females, as well as having the masthead being a similar font, that females would relate to. The front cover represents females well, due to the flowery girly look of the artist, because of what she is wearing, and how she has presented herself, and the general style of the magazine also represents this group well.


 It represents folk singers, due to the rural, outdoors, soft kind of setting of the picture. It shows aspects that most people relate to folk singers, such as the guitar, and the neutral colours such as green and some blue-grey tones. This is a positive representation of these social groups because the artist I am using to represent them is well presented, successful, and a very down to earth type of person, that portrays females and folk singers well.





It also represents everyday people, this is through the artists I include being fairly unknown, on the verge of being popular in the music world. It means that artists in my magazine are relatable, and represent everyday people that perhaps read the magazine, and would therefore make them want to buy it, perhaps even because they are aspiring to become like the artists I use some day.
