CD Cover Analysis



This Cd cover is a picture of different types of technology that will help make the music that Jay-Z makes; they might have done this as there are different types of music equipment in this photo that ranges in different time ranges. The silver cover makes the Cd case stand out and the three lines in the middle of the Cd case carries on through the different Albums that Jay-Z makes, because he has Blueprint 1, Blueprint 2 and this one is Blueprint 3. This album cover with the red lines might show that Jay-Z’s genre is usually around the same as other Hip Hop rapper but his has a different style, and the red lines might show this.



This Cd cover is a picture of a block of flats with a one flat that has windows full of colours and shapes. The Arctic Monkeys could have done this to show a new style of music that they are making, as they had already made an album before this, the writing of “Arctic Monkeys Favourite Worst Nightmare” is in a rather technological way as it is using a different and abstract font, this might also then link to the different style of music that they are making. The dark grey colours with the bright white and pink and yellow colours make that one house stand out which might show that the Arctic Monkeys will stand out more from the crowd as the music will be popular.



This Cd cover is a picture underwater with two naked people who are touching hand together, also in the background and foreground there are plants and fish watching them with a ray of light spearing through the water. This is an abstract and strange album artwork as it is unusual, but I think that they have created this album artwork like this as they are making different unique types of music than they have done before due to the strange artwork. The colours are bright and very dominant, they have used these colours to attract the user to the album. They might have also created this album artwork as one of the songs on this album is called “Watercolour” this may reflect on the album artwork.
