Kanye West-Eyes Closed

Album CoversThe music genre of this album is Rap, Hip-Hop however from the album cover this genre isn’t obvious at all that it would be this. The cover looks very calm and almost a classical genre looks likely, however there is a picture of Kanye West on the front and anybody that knows him would know what his type of music is like. The title of the album is “EYES CLOSED” , it’s quite clever as there is a close up picture of Kanye with his eyes closed. Due to Kanye being a solo artist that suggests why he is the only person on the front of the album, they have take a close up of him to show his eyes are closed which links in to the name of the album. The background colour and what he is wearing is all white, so he and the writing they have added to the cover stands out more. The target market would likely be a typical fan or someone that likes that genre of music.

Katherine Jenkins-Sweetest love

Album Covers

This album is by Katherine Jenkins and is called “Sweetest Love” the genre of the music is classical there isn’t really anything obvious to suggest this in the cover, however the way she is dressed very formal in a posh dress does suggest it will be this genre of music. The artist is Katherine Jenkins again she is a solo artist which suggests why she is the only person on the front, they have taken a long shot to show he in the dress. The title relates to the genre of music “sweetest love” helps us to know that the genre is most likely be classical. The background is very plain but is slightly darker to the colour of her dress so it makes her stand out more. The way she is standing and swinging her dress makes it seem more classical and peaceful. The target market would be someone who likes that type of music possibly more of an older age or the same age as her.
