The image that Vibe has used is a famous artist (Eminem), this immediately attracts the attention of the readers that are interested in this particular genre of music or fans of Eminem.The image of Eminem is forward in the foreground, looking in the readers eyes bringing his stance to attention of the fans/readers. His head is over the title with makes him stand out more and it shows he has a story he wants to tell. The title and the picture link together and includes a big quote that will draw the reader in and grab their attention,"I literally almost died".The name of the rapper (Eminem) is also is big and bold red writing with will help draw the reader in because he is a famous rapper with a story to tell.
The mast-head of the magazine is in bold writing and then continues the colour scheme of the magazine, which is red and black. These two colour schemes (red and black) are linked with danger and strength and often shows both of them things. That links in with the main artical because of Eminem's dangerous and near miss "street" lifestyle.
Their is a couple of articles spread around the cover, which will help draw the main attention of Eminem and his dangerous lifestyle but also says that their is a lot more included in this artical and it also suggests this.
For this particular music magazine Vibe are going for a tough and hardcore look for this front cover, showing that Eminem is strong and powerful this is shown through the artists stance and body language(standing strong with his arms crossed looking in the audiences eyes with a tough and hardcore look. The fonts and colours used also show the powerful and tough look they were aiming for because red and black and linked with danger.
