Reason for choosing Masthead

I chose the name 'Under The Ground' for my masthead as I feel it represents the type of music that my magazine covers. I chose the masthead that I did simply because I thought it represented the underground Hip-Hop lifestyle. For example it is in a graffiti font, as many people who listen to underground Hip-Hop and in fact Hip-Hop in general are interested in graffiti. I chose the colours red and black because I think that it represents the lyrics of Hip-Hop as they are quite depressing and also because they link in with the colour scheme of the magazine.
