Mood board R&B and coventions

This is my research on my music magazine genre. R&B is the genre that I chose to do my magazine on ,so these are few different R&B magazine covers, with different artists on the cover. This will give me few ideas on how my magazine has to be to be successful.

This is an R&B magazine which shows similarities between both men and women cover. The first thing in R&B magazine covers we see the music artist either topless for men or very little clothing for women. The purpose for men to be topless is because teenage girls and young adults female that are fan of the artist the editor is aware that having that artist topless is going to sell better. For a women, minimal clothing, or sexy outfit, to please their audience (male). Another thing is jellewery is important for both for woman it’s something that will catch male eyes straight away and it also emphasis their look and position of seduction; for men it is important because it emphasis their status in the society. Tattoos are a big part of R&B culture again for men, with the majority having lots of tattoos all visible to the public. This could be used to show creativity and independence from other artists.
