After further discussion we have decided against the title of caution. When we thought further into what the title meant to a potential reader we decided that caution did not convey the meaning we intended. The word caution, rather than convey a hardcore meaning to compliment the music covered in our magazine, goes against the purpose of hip-hop music. Hip-Hop artists tend to not use caution when writing their music and tend to sway on the risky side with their lyrics. They include sensitive topics in their music and tend to use very graphic language. This all goes against the idea of caution. This is why we decided to scrap this title. We originally believed that the title of caution would convey a sense of warning to the potential reader and give them the idea that what was inside was risky potentially graphic content, but the title did the exact opposite.
We now have two new ideas for a title: The Come Up and Reckless. The first title idea conveys the idea that our magazine will focus on only up and coming rappers. The title will show the reader what to expect when reading our magazine. We have decided that we do only want to focus on only up and coming rappers since there are not many other magazines on the market that do this. The title Reckless conveys the original message we were trying to convey. It shows the defiant atmosphere of hip-hop music.
In the end we decided to go with the title The Come Up. We decided that this title fits not only the rap world, as coming up is a phrase often used when discussing new rappers, but gives the reader a great idea on what they will find in our magazine. It is a title that is not too long, yet not too dull. It is a great lengths and it is very eye catching.
