This double page spread is from Q magazine. It features Dizzee Rascal, who started as an underground rapper so has been around for a few years. However, only recently has he made a name for himself.
The image of Dizzee is mostly represented by the background. The graffiti on the background enhances the title “From Tags To Riches” as tags are a type of graffiti. Also, the other images on the page such as bottles represent a certain culture. Because Dizzee is from an area in East London, which is home to many black musicians and footballers, it shows his past. Because of this, this is stereotypically linked to gang culture and issues such as under-age binge drinking.
