Textual Analysis of Double Page spread

This double page spread is interesting and quite unique in bringing it’s message across. This double page spread is different from most of the double page spread I have seen normally there is only one image present and that is of the person that the article is about posing for the camera but this one present has two images shown which an audience of fans that are screaming and enjoying what seems to be a concert and another image is the guy that the article is about and other people with him which could be artists that are there to help enhance his performance on stage a great thing about this image is that the image seems real and natural unlike others that have probably been taken over and over again to make the image perfect. These are one of many things that make the double page spread stand out and different. The rapper who the article is about is his name is in black but it does not stand out because his name is not big and bold and in the centre it is in the corner so we can still see it before we read the article but it is not just an in your face title like the rest of the articles I read and see. His words that he said are written in capital letters and the colour of it is red which makes these specific words grab our attention because red is the only bright colour that is on this article. His words were “my main objective was not to be a rapper but to find a way out”. This could mean a lot of things like by him being a rapper was a way for him to stay out of trouble and making himself stay away from crime to make money so he used his talents to make money which by the sounds of it is rapping. The article lay out is different because one image is at the top right hand corner and another image is at the bottom left corner. So it makes the article looks like it has been split into the four boxes. There is another one of what he says in written bigger than the font that the article was written in but it is in the same colour writing as the article. The whole article is in black and white which is also unusual and that is the reason why the red writing stands out from the article.
