This is my 3rd draft of my music magazine, personally i really like this because it shows alot of creativity using a banner to promote an inside magazine free which i think is very creative, also it has a distinctive title and main coverline.
At first i thought this magazine will be mainly aimed at the female audice so i added the picture of Rick Ross to give the male audience interest.

The barcode is also in an unusual place as i think its different and original, which brings the magazine to life.
This draft is one of my best, i changed the name from the previous draft 'Hustle' to 'Evolve' because hustle made it sound cheap, whereas Evolve gives a more sophisticated feel to it and can aim at older viewers.
Also the text used for the main coverline, 'Rihanna' is bold and big to make it stand out but in contrast the other text in black and looks a bit more sleek both compliment each other and work well.
To improve this i think i could have added a tad more text, but other than that o think its a good one.
