Fonts

I feel that to fit the Hip Hop genre I need to use Bold and simple texts because that relates to the Hip Hop artists as they are bold and simple in the way that they present themselves. It is important that it doesn't only fit the genre but it needs to look professional. I want my magazine to come portray the glamourous lifestyle of Hip Hop artists so it is important that I pick fonts that will fit the glamourous look I am aiming for, but still simple, bold and catch the readers eye.
Picking the correct font for the Mast Head on the cover page is very important because that is the first thing that a potential reader sees. That means that if it doesn't stand out then they wont take any notice of the magazine on the self. 
I have chosen the font 'Modern King'. I feel that this font is the most suitable for my magazine because it is simple and bold, but still portrays the glamorous image I was hoping to achieve.

An alternative font that I could choose to this would be 'Lion King'. I like this for the same reasons as the 'modern king' font, but I feel that it could be a bit too simple and bland. Meaning that it wouldn't catch peoples eye.
