The most important aspect of any front cover of any magazine is the main image. The main image for this cover depicts the main attraction of that particular edition of Blender, Jay Z. The image of his is set to a pure white backdrop has him dressed in an expensive suit as the caption below his name reads, “The fly life of an American gangster”. While the stereotype of a rap “gangster” is usually someone akin to a thug and usually dressed “appropriately” to draw those comparisons, in this image of him supposedly being a “gangster” depicts him in a much more classic Hollywood style of gangster, brandishing his wealth at his pleasing.
