Analysis of digipacks

Page 2: Albums

Drake – take care Dark colors

such as black, used to show darkness but

also gold to show expense

Album name written in a

signature way

like drake has signed it himself

The image sh

ows

drake is sad and

lonely with a lot

of money

Dark colors are

used much like all

rap album covers

to stay consist

ant

with the darkness

of rapThe layout is simple

but stands out as everything is bold and contrasts with the dark on light effect

The language

used is very

slang and

straight to the

point much

like all rap

music The mid shot used helps us see the emotion of drake but also his surrounding showing he's not happy with his expensive life The album

name maybe

means he's

saying take

care to his old

life

Page 3: Albums

Jayz – the black albumThe black colors is used again to show the shadiness of rap music

The text in th

is

album is bold but

does not st

and out

as much

The close up of

jayz face holding

his hat over his

face indicates he

wants to be hidden from

something

The colors in this

album clash a lot

with strong use of

black and white, it

shows the

lifelessness in rap

music Unlike take care this album is track numbered and has a paragraph type layout to it unlike take care which is bang in the middle.

The layout of the

tracks on the

back make it

look like there's

more songs on

the cd The darkness of

the album cover

helps represent the

name of the album

The front is all

dark accept jayz

name which is in

white so you read

his name first

ASAP Rocky- long live asap

The colors used once again is dark with black and white to help prove that rap is dark

The image is blurry, which could mean people find it hard to see asap at the topA mid shot of asap

shows him sat on a throne, like the king of America hence why he's wearing a flag

Like drakes song list there's no track numbers, just a row of song names to show the carelessness of rap music now days

The text is bold like jayz album using the white on black style of colors to show rap isn't about color

The album stays

consistant

throughout with the

fuzzy background

much like a TV gone

out of focus, maybe

indicating asap is

going off focus

The title is right in the middle, cutting through the image so people read the title as it is a victory chant title, that followers should say

The language is slanged such as asap with a dollar sign, to add to the street affect

Eminem - Marshall Mather

The text is bold and

stand out from the

dark background on

the image with large

letters so you

remember Eminem's

nameMuch like all rap

covers this 1 also

tells a story, like

Eminem feels alone

and scared in a

nasty place

The e is the wrong way round, adding to the street style of rap music slang styleThe long shot of Eminem shown helps show he's alone at home and filled with fear from something

The tracks are numbered in this album, giving it a more professional feel unlike asap and drake

Drake and asaap

don’t number there

songs as they expect

there fans to listen to

all of them instead of

picking a track

number

The layout is more professional in this album unlike the other rap ones, as Eminem attracts a lot of different genre people who may not even like rap due to his style of lyrics

Parental advisory

All the albums had this sign on the bottom corner, as it has a lot of hard hitting content and swear words that might not be appropriate for young fans. This is very common in rap music as some feeling are expressed through words or use of products that other genres don’t talk about. Rap is the only genre that uses the most explicit content in songs but it is needed to truly show how someone feels in there lyrics unlike pop which talks about love etc.
