Pop, Breaking and Entering, Rock, R&B/Hip Hop, Country, Latin, Dance/Electronic, Christian/Gospel and some additional genres. So the target audience is varied towards many different music fans.



The Target audience for Vibe varies also. 50.5% of them are males, meaning the other 49.5% are women. The ratio between the 2 genders is almost exactly equal, meaning that Vibe is aimed towards both genders, not either one specifically.

Male and Female who both enjoy heavy rock would both like this magazine as it is mainly based around heavy rock. There is quite a varied range of audience for this magazine as there is a range of rock genres they talk about. Pop punk would attract teenagers mostly, and people who like ACDC would be more aimed at an older audience so as for gender it doesnt really matter.
