The first question I have created was to see what colours people expect to see for a
magazine of this genre. Out of the 12 people who took part, I got 26 votes of 10
colours. Out of the 26 votes, the colour black was mentioned 8 times, and also red
was voted 7 times. These two colours are clear winners, so therefore I will include
these colours based on my research. The colours grey, gold and silver were the
next leaders. Although based on my magazine conventions research, I tend to see
the colour white and grey be used a lot. Therefore I am challenging the results of
the questionnaire and deciding to include white and grey as a side colour to my
magazine.

2. Question two was asking about famous artists within the genre to be featured. A
whopping 91% of people said “yes” and will like my magazine to feature famous
artists like Drake and Chris Brown.

3. The third question was about the interests in clothing trends. 58% of
people said that they are interested in clothing trends. This result is not a
really marginal win thereby I may include some bits of new clothing and
fashion.

4. Question 4 was asking whether if interviews and gossip sections of
magazines get read. Although 41% of people said none of the above, 33%
said both. Therefore I am going to take a risk and put both gossip and
interviews. This is because the magazines I have read on Hip-Hop all consist
of these two aspects.

5. The 5th question on my questionnaire was about the amount of pages people
expect to see in a Hip-Hop magazine. The answer which got picked the most
was 26-36. Although the second highest answer was 15-25 and this was not
behind by a long margin. So therefore I will probably aim my production to the
people of ages 15-36. The other results did not get voted as much so therefore I
am going to ignore them and focus my publication to the 15-36 year olds as my
results show.

6. The 6th question I asked was about the actual content about the magazine. I
decided to ask if they were interested in new technology. This was so I can gain
an understanding about if the customers will like to see new trending
advertisements of technology inside the magazine. As the results show that
84% of people mentioned that they like new technology so thereby I will
consider including adverts about new technology due to the results of this.

7. Q7. What type of adverts would you like to see
within a Hip-Hop magazine?
This question was an open question about what
content people expect to see in a Hip-Hop
magazine. In general, people said that like
new tech and fashion, concert
dates, gadgets, upcoming singles/albums and
also a taster of what may come in the future.
In general I believe all of these answers can
relate to Hip-Hop magazines as the content I
have seen in magazines relates to this kind of
stuff.

8. Q8. What Hip-Hop magazines have
you read previously?
This was also an open question. A lot of people
said that they had never read any other HipHop magazines, however I did receive some
results. XXL, MoJo, I am HipHop and also Vibe
was mentioned. These magazines are really
famous successful ones, and I believe that
following what they do in order to create a
magazine will lead me to success as well.

9. Question 9 was about the advertising inside magazines. A shocking 78% of
people said that they do not like to see adverts within magazines. However
from my research, many magazines had at least 10 pages worth of
advertising inside. In conclusion I will include some magazines so I tick both
boxes. I will also advertise things which my audience are interested in.

10. The last question on my survey was about the gender of artists included on my
magazine. 78% of people said that they like to see both female and male artists
within the magazine. From this whopping result, my magazine will be aimed at
both genders and consist of both genders.
