Akon magazine cover

This magazine advert which features Akon shows us instantly that the colour of his suit and the colour of the background are very similar which is a dark grey, the city background behind him which looks very cloudy and misty may suggest that there maybe a another side to Akon and the way he is looking down might tell us something that we don't know. I think that this picture has been used to make the audience think that Akon may reveal another side of him and this will make people read more about. Another common feature of Akon is that in his covers he wears suits which is different to other artists as they wear a lot jewellery, caps and accessories. But we also know that Akon is a iconic figure in the music industry and him dressing in a suit shows his power and success.
