GENRESI want a pop/electric/dance genre, something that offers a mixture of

genre but within one named artist.

Lady Gaga has consecutively appeared on Billboard magazine's Artists of the Year (scoring the definitive title in 2010), is regularly

placed on lists composed by Forbes magazine, and was named one of the most influential people in the world by Time magazine. I want genres similar to these magazines, as Gaga is the type of

musician/musical talent I want to advertise and write about through my magazine.

Lady Gaga being mentioned on the Billboard website, as she is in the charts. Following these influence, I want my magazine to include music genres featured in the chart at the moment who hold talented songs related to the pop and dance genre.

Artists in this genre:•Rihanna

•Beyonce

•Madonna

•Britney Spears

•Lady Gaga

•Ke$ha

Billboard is my starting influence, with an age range of 16 to 20. Most sell lines are aimed at a younger audience, yet with a contradicting elder pop vibe, not a typical pre-teen in your face one. Normally it attracts a female reader, which is what I want. The colours and images are associated with women, due to fashion relations, feminine dance/pop genres and entertainment/gossip from a womanly point of view. Social class is around the C2 zone, encouraged through laid back lexis and information on music. The mise-en-scene portrays femininity but I want a twist, something that wows the audience is feminine with a masculine twist through bolder colours, harsher atmosphere yet a woman model on my front cover, opening a wider genre and target audience enables me to provide a music magazine for both gender.
