Magazine Ad Analysis

The Blueprint 3 is the eleventh studio album by American rapper Jay-Z, released September 8, 2009, on Roc Nation. It is the final installment in The Blueprint trilogy, preceded by The Blueprint (2001) and The Blueprint 2: The Gift & The Curse (2002). The advertisement includes Jay-z’s name at the top in the largest font, which is very common in most advertisements. The main picture is a bunch of instruments stuck together, a very abstract image. It has three red lines through it representing that the album is the third blueprint album and it also has the release date near the bottom of the ad. The very bottom has an image, which is the logo for Roc Nation, Jay-z’s record label.





Kingdom of Rust is the fourth studio album from British indie rock band Doves. The album was released on 6 April 2009 in the UK via Heavenly Records. Along with the jay-z advertisement, this also has the band name in the largest font and the album name directly underneath.
This follows the conventions of most advertisements as it has the release date at the bottom. This also includes a quote from the magazine “Q” and the Doves website.
