Above are two different albums from the artist Lil Wayne. Lil Wayne is one of the most successful and well known artists within hip hop. Coincidentally the top album was just released. Analysing both albums we can see clearly that they both lookalike. The backgrounds are both bland behind however his face is projected in the top cover. We see tattoos, jewellery and a hat all within the frame which show the stereotypical values of a hip hop artist. We could also add that the second album cover is a juxtapose. We can see he is in a costume that you would use to graduate however his face still has that thuggish look. It is quite intriguing to look at.
The album below looks like him however is a Young boy edited with his tattoos. There must be an explanation why is is dressed up in the clothes he is
Chipmunk is a UK based artist who has done very well and now is in America. He has worked with the likes of Chris brown and his future looks bright. He has newly released an album called transition which is featured above. He has the conventions we would usually look for in a hip hop artist. These can be identified as tattoos, jewellery (bling) and a fresh appeal.
His album i am chipmunk shows the importance of him with his name projected massively. Although we cannot see a clear picture of him, he is on the back cover posing with a hand signal. These shows his coolness. Also, what I've noticed on both albums is that they have parental advisory. This is a stereotypical value of hip hop as most albums or singles have it which are related to hip hop.
