Research on Hip Hop Artists!

I have been doing some research about the genre hip hop as I thought this is what is one of the most common genres that many people are into. 

I also did research on the most well known hip hop artists and here are a few examples: 

Drake (Drizzy)

Tyga

Cassie

            Keri Hilson                               

Rihanna


By researching famous Hip Hop artists, what I can see from these images is that what all these images have in common is they are taken from a mid shot. This tells me that in my front cover when I would be taking the picture or planning how I would take my picture on my flat plan, I would take it from a mid shot.

They are also wearing similar clothes as I would see it as they are wearing retro, casual blended with bling of the women images. For the men, they seem to be wearing classy, bling and either being top-less. This tells me that if I chose to have a female as my front cover image, I would focus on her clothing and make sure they are wearing what represents Hip Hop and what most top female Hip Hop artists would be wearing on music magazines. If I chose to have a male as my front cover image I would make sure they are wearing classy with bling type of clothes as many male Hip Hop artists are wearing currently in this generation.
