Analysing fonts- 

Something you'd see on a country music magazines, thick bold lines could relate more to the modern type face, making the font appear more masculine, but the curls and hand written style makes it appear more feminine. Mimics western style of writing with a feminine bold flare, so possibly works for a country music magazine aimed at women.

A very 1920's style of font, thing and slick. The height of the letters makes the font appear to be 1920's style, meaning its suitable for a jazz magazine. It's a monospaced typeface making it clear to read and it stands out. 

An 80's style font using geometric shapes and lines. Mathematical feel to the font. Could be used in an EDM magazine or even an 80s revival magazine cover as it connotes both 80's style and technical, mathematical style of electric music.
