Music magazine front covers

All four of these images are of XXL magazine front covers, XXL is a worldwide hip hop magazine that features some of the best and most well know artists in the world. All of these front covers have really big stars on them, Dr Dre, eminem, 50 cent and tupac. XXL uses hip hop artists past and present because the third front cover is Tupac Shakur and he died in 1996, but Dr Dre, Eminem and 50 cent are all still alive. On nearly all of the XXL magazine front covers the title is in the top left hand corner and in the newer ones the artists head can be covering some of the title, this can now be done by XXL because they are a well known hip hop magazine and people will still know that it is an XXL magazine. Newer and less well known magazines will not be able to do this because people will not know the title.
