Existing Album Covers



Red Hot Chili Peppers Album Cover:

• In the bottom left of the cover, there is the end of a guitar and above it some drums, this shows that the genre and style of this album is either rock or indie.
• The image in the middle of the cover of the face also represents the genre of music. The eye is blood shocked this could be there to represent the rock ‘N’ Roll lifestyle the artists have.





Michael Jackson Album Cover:

• This album cover has the dominance of Michael Jackson’s statue, this shows his iconic and ‘King’ status, and it also represents Michael Jackson as being strong and dominant.
• The background is an image of red sky, this also shows his dominance.
• The statue has a spotlight shining upon him; this also shows the size and power in the music industry he had.
• This album represents more the image of Michael Jackson more so than the style and genre of his music.







Red Hot Chili Peppers Album Cover:


• This album cover is another abstract example of CD covers.
• The cover shows the world maybe to be back to front, because the water replaces where the sky should be, and the sky replaces where the water should be in the pool, this may represent the style of album.
• The album cover is colourful and vibrant, but also very unusual, therefore it doesn’t show the genre of music which this album could be.





Q-Tip Album Cover:

• Abstract CD cover from Q-Tip.
• His music is Hip-Hop, R&B genre.
• We see the face of Q-Tip, and his forehead is replaced with other famous artists, such as Bob Marley, and musical instruments. This could show his influences in his music career, which he bases his music on.
• The background of the album of cover is again abstract but looks bleak because of the dull colours which have been used.
• His face and the other iconic figures are all in bright, flamboyant colours which is a contrast to the background.
