CD Cover Research

SKEPTA- Rescue me

This album cover shows skepta on the front of the cover with a Straight jacket on, which is very relevant to the single that it is representing. This is because the song is about him trying to get away from a mental institution. The background behind his name is red which shows danger and his name is in white. White shows innocence which contrasts with the red giving some signs of confusion. This single cover is what to be expected of the genre that skepta sits into. As it shows the artist on the cover on his own, this says to you that its skepta that you will have, nothing else.

Ministry Of sound - Electro House Sessions

This CD cover is completely different to the Cd Cover of Skepta which is to be expected as the genre of music is not the same.This Cd cover is for techno music and the Design of the album cover is a lot of different colours. You would accociate these colours with techno and rave in a party/ Dark room. The Background is black with the colours. This gives you the image in your mind of a techno rave party. Compared to the Skepta CD you cannot see the artist which means they want you to have the party feel as you listen and not just for the artist that has created it. This is what you would expect with this genre and the convetions for this music.

JLS- Album cover

The Jls cover is quite similar to the skepta album cover as it shows the group in the center of the album cover. This makes you focus on the artists showing you that they are what you are ment to be looking at. There is a large logo of their group name at the top of the page which will stand out of the shelf of different album cover. The big logo is very flashy and from what they are wearing thats the impression that they want to give out. Compared to the other two album covers this one is Light. This is a perfect example of the genre of this music as they are dressed up fancy and have the "pretty boy" look. Thats where the Stars and shines come in on the title.
