Research&Planning [Music Masthead Ideas ]

This is the main colour that i will be using because it pops more to the eye and is often used by many magazines such as XXL.


These are the original font images downloaded from DaFont.com
I will be probably using the font in the middle because it is a bold font and similar fonts are used by many magazines of this genre.


These are all the names that i came up with which people in my class helped me pick from. I was going to either use Bars or Blow but then my teacher said 'Sometimes its better to have a not so obvious name' and so i decided to go with Blow. The name is essentially a part of every Rap Music artists life such as blowing money and delivering a blow with every verse.
